Not difficult at all. Plenty of stripdown guides on the web. 'PILKGUNS' is a good source of info.

Graham,
Surprisingly, the FW300 is very straightforward to strip !
Some excellent video guides are here : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWL...AgPp2XA/videos

Have fun

Agreed with all of the above. The hardest part is if the one or both screws for the trigger group are seized up. Make sure you use a well fitting screwdriver, especially if the gun still has it's original seals. That means those screws haven't been turned for over 30 years.

If you are already aiming for the exact center of everything, then the target’s size shouldn’t matter — the center of a beach ball is just as big as the center of an aspirin tablet. -Byron Ferguson

Hi Graham,
Good luck with your DIY strip and seal replacement on the FWB300.
When the piston seal on mine failed a couple of years ago I had to take it to Mays of Buckhurst Hill to carry out the work since the 2 hardened pins in the action had corroded and seized solid and had to be ground out. It cost me a total of £135 (mostly labour) but also included a new breach seal so good luck!

Ifyou don't want to do it yourself, "Wonky Donky" on here will do it. I have used him for both modern and classic repairs and he is very competent, prompt, and reasonable priced and I can highly recomend him. I know he also does the classic repairs for the UK FWB importer.
If you can't find his contact, email and I'll forward his email to you.
Best of luck
