Hi,

an FWB 65, in its polystyrene box, ser no 145—, 1995 made according to FWB Germany ,last ser no’s were
146—-
Sorry am unable to load pics, so I can only say it is in my opinion “mint”? But that is only my opinion!

Also has large gun case by Gun Guard, again in “mint “? Cdn, lockable with keys.Brown in colour,
with a “mottled” ? finish.

Mechanicallly perfect?
Just a general price guide?

At a guess I would say around £175 I managed to get hold of a boxed mint FWB 80 last week for £185 all depends on the market at the time.

You might get a tad more, say £200. I like them. Bit of a bargain at £200 but then it really depends on who wants one. I think they are really worth £265 but then I'm not buying.

It's got to be worth £200, easily! But then I'm biased - I love these pistols and think they are cheap at the price. But as mentioned, it depends on demand at any given time. There were a huge number of these made and a lot are coming on the market. But many are very well used, so a genuinely immaculate example in its original packaging has to be worth a premium.

With the walnut grips bits mentioned and good condition I think the estimates are a bit low.
Start at £30o and haggle.

They are such a fine pistol to shoot. A price really can't be put on that. They sold at a high price in their day as they were state of the art.
£300 for a perfect example isn't robbing anyone. Around £200 for a used but not overly and well looked after isn't bad for either party.
Trade to buy has to be a tad less to make a profit, the time to find the buyer.

A good few were made. Most are in great condition. How big the market is any day is anyone's guess. At £250 its a cheap way of learning the basics of target match 10m shooting. Anyone with a good sized garage can have themselves a 6m indoor range.
To me they are a great pistol to enjoy. Loads of people might enjoy one. Whatever the price they are a bargain. For people who want something more agricultural then my other "must have' is a Webley Tempest.
All great fun.
