    Hello to All,

    The Walther LGM1 is a fine rifle.

    My Walther LG90 is still the most accurate rifle I have owned.

    I have always been on the lookout for a Walther LG210 - the last of Walther's SSPs.

    Have fun

    Best regards

    Russ

    +1 for the LG90 - an incredibly good SSP match rifle.

    Didn't you sell a LG90 Bob?
    I thought you showed me a laminated match rifle the other month?
    I'm new to this match rifle stuff, so I'm probably wrong

    I didn't even know the difference between SSP and PCP until a few weeks ago LOL
    I do rather like my close range paper punching and bell ringing

    Can't wait for Marks LGM to get here, even more so taking it to my bell club and seeing if I can earn some extra points and help my team out. I've only been twice as I only joined two weeks ago, but so far with a gun that was set-up for 10 and had to be adjusted there and then on the fly, I shot 59, and last week after some proper zeroing, I got 61. I did rush one shot as I thought I was taking too long and hit a 7 so next time with the Walther I'm taking my time and going for 70

    Hi Rob,

    You are right- I have recently sold a lovely LG90 with an Ambi stock.

    I still have a really nice right handed LG90 and a right handed LGM-1 as well as a right handed Junior (LGM-2) version that I have used in the MPL series last year. I am definitely a Walther enthusiast - they are about as close as you can get to a hand finished match air rifle these days!

    It is a shame that age dictates that I need to gradually reduce my collection and so I will be (very reluctantly - and slowly!) selling them - but they will each be very sadly missed!

    I also have a nice collection of PCP Walther match rifles too and I use these every week at the club. My LG300XT Carbontec is my main rifle since I sold my Blue LG300XT Anatomic, but I also make sure that I "exercise" my other Walther PCP match rifles too and my recent Anthracite LG400XT Anatomic will no doubt become my "go-to" rifle when I have got it set-up the way I want it.

    The laminated stock rifle picture I sent to you would probably have been my blue/red/green laminated stock Feinwerkbau P70 - a PCP match rifle.

    Yes I do still have some Feinwerkbau match rifles too!

    The (now "old school") P70 is a fairly "dated" design compared to the current crop of relatively "lithe" PCP match rifles, but they are still pin-point accurate and shoot far better than this pensioner can achieve these days. I have a red alloy P70 that I have set-up as a Supported Air Rifle and with "possibles" only ever spoilt by "old age wobbles" they are both the ultimate SARS rifle as far as I am concerned. The laminated stock P70 variant "feels" a lot lighter and is more manageable too !

    I also have an FWB P800X as well and enjoy shooting that now and again. IMHO it is as just about as close as FWB have ever come to "feeling" like a Walther - but is is NOT a Walther!
