Feinwerkbau P70 Match Rifle

[zooma]

The original cardboard and foam delivery packaging has now been dumped as it took up too much space and it's limited usefulness has been more than replaced with the hard case.

Hello - is this still for sale?

Yes this rifle is still for sale - although every time I take it to the club and use it I become a little more reluctant to part with it as it is such a nice rifle that has had very little use from new.

The sooner the rifle is sold the better in some ways because the longer it stays here with me the more I feel inclined to keep it as I doubt there can be a better example of a P70 anywhere (unless the factory have kept an unused example on display).

If this is a genuine enquiry to buy it just let me know and I would be happy to send you some pictures of the rifle for you to see, and if you decide to seriously consider buying it you would be more than welcome to inspect it and shoot it at 10 meters before parting with any cash.

I see you are located in a village on the shores of Loch Fyne ( about half way between Oban and Campbeltown) - a beautiful part of the country - but a long way for you to travel to see the rifle. I am guessing if you wanted the rifle to be posted then it would have to be delivered to an RFD in your area?

Hi Dave,

My P70 is still for sale (only just - please read the threads) and the price is shown in the first thread.

Since first posting this thread (months ago!) a few things have happened that have made me reconsider selling my P70 - including the following ones !

To start with the rifle is still in "as new" and "almost unused" condition (and also has all its original documentation). There can be very few (if any) P70 match rifles as good as this one unless there are any new unsold examples lurking about somewhere?

I also really like the red laminated colour, the original cylinder has been replaced with two new genuine brand new Feinwerkbau cylinders recently bought from Germany (cost over £300 for the pair delivered) and the chances of finding another one this good again at this price after I sold it is probably zero!

Although I have had a few enquiries (for pictures) nobody has shown any real interest in actually buying it - even though I have also noticed that there are no other PCP match rifles for sale that look as young or have had so little use at anything like the price I was asking for this one.

Every time I take this rifle to the range it reminds me just how much I like it - and how accurately it shoots - and what a superb trigger it has (helped by some good set-up advice from Robin C).

Now that I have the chance to shoot "rested air rifle" at our club, this rifle will come into its own as it will be absolutely perfect for this discipline as its only slight negative is that it is not a light weight rifle - in fact it is quite heavy (and bulky) when compared to the latest crop of rifles such as the very slim and lightweight Walther LG400 - which is what I currently shoot !

Most importantly I have also found somewhere to store it safely at home when it is not in use so I have decided NOT TO SELL it.

Instead I will make a lengthened stock hand rest to convert it to a "senior" rifle for use in the new "rested" discipline - and I can easily remove this at any time to return the rifle to its original specification.
