    Looking for FWB 300s

    I am thinking of picking a FWB 300s up if I can find any, or even one or two to look at.

    Anyone know of any hiding away or on a dealers shelf ?

    Any help much appreciated.

    Contact ZOOMA on here. He has a variety of match rifles for sale and Im sure there is at least one 300S amongst them.

    Hard to say, but I seen a mint, boxed 300s Selling for 550 recently, but it was as new!
    Your probably aware that they range from about £300 to £400 for a good condition one, but seldom come up!
    Might be worth asking both ads to send more close up pics, depends what you want, Mint, near mint, or a good but well used shooter!

    I had one of these in the late eighties and still kick myself for getting rid of it!

    Sorted now thanks for all the help and advice.


    Since my housekeeper is down south for the night my itchy fingers got the better of me, I have done a deal with none of the aforementioned items above.

    I have went for a slightly nicer one with better wood and blueing, and a shop I have history with.

    Wont see it till Sunday as I'm fishing but looking forward to this addition.

    And at £460 they can keep it. A boxed (well polystyrene packaging) one in excellent condition went at our recent Airgun Fair for £190. If it had been a leftie .

    It wasn't that price I paid when I asked for pics and the best price ?

    If you don't ask you don't get, and a tin of pellets, not the best but still ok.

    This one will save me 6 hours refinishing the stock over the other two.

    Now in all my searching I did see lots of target rifle sight spares, I tried to find it this afternoon for you but got lost, will try again tomorrow.

    You will have to use a cv boot from a kids quad bike in the meantime for your diopter,,,,lol

    Clanchief, you will not be disappointed by your FWB300S. They are really superb rifles. Welcome to the FWB club!
