    Question for Benelli B76.

    Hello Baz

    I'm now looking for a FWB 65 and wondered if you could answer a question.

    The Walther LP53 is a bit low on power because the spring is restricted to grip size.

    What sort of power does the FWB65 put out?

    As far as I can remember I registered around 3 ft lb. The fps was between 400 to 450 with various pellets, 7 grn to 8.3 grn. I did have one which the power was up slightly as I fitted a special spring that I ground down the O.D. to fit the piston. This made it a bit hard to cock and put a lot of strain on the sidelever. The chap I sold it to on here took the spring out. Was the prettiest 65 I have seen with a kind of "tigers eye" patterned wood grips.

    Which was mine bought off here.

    I also have two LP 53s Arthur.

    I sold the 65 to Baz- I didn't really get on with the sidelever.

    Proper target pistol and v accurate.

    The LP53 isn't but I like the design and they are good to shoot.
