    £350 a fair price for one of these.

    Very much top end. would have to be mint, with a decent period scope...

    £350 is strong money for a 124 (.177) and way over priced for the 127 (.22). Have seen the latter for between £150-£250 and the 124 which command a premium for £200-300, as the gent above said for £350 it would need to be mint

    Fitted a V Mach kit into a very nice Mk2 a few days ago , shoots as good as a modern tuned gun. If your going to buy one check the barrel lock up, i have see that when this has worn the barrel can flip open and closed when you fire it . As far as i know this is not repairable also if it still got the factory piston seal this need to be changed as they brake up.

    All I can say is that it's as factory brand new!

    well, if you really want it, then go for it - accepting that you will probably lose £50-£75 when you sell it on - but that's a much better deal than buying a new gun ! If you are in no rush, you will find them in good condition for around £250, but perhaps not quite as nice as the one you are looking at.

    You pays your money...

    Ten at the one time?

    Did you keep the Mastersport or a standard one, sir?
    Grayling always wanted it so I sold it him last year ( Quite cheap ) the one I kept cost me £80 From Jeans Military Memories at great Harwood
    I shortened the Barrel and thinned down the forend its a 22 and the best shooting one I ever had
    Oh I also chambered the breech so it will shoot almost any pellets well

    £350 is a lot. Is it “as new”, or just “very nice” or on the other hand genuinely unused in box with iron sights, manual, etc?

    If it is basically unused, the breech seal has probably degraded and will need replacing. That takes time, tools (spring compressor, for one, these things have a long soft spring with lots of preload) or money if you get someone to do it for you.

    However, as others have said, the FWB121/124/127 Sport is one of the best springers ever. Ever.

    Think is £350 with a weaver 4x40 scope. I don't know. Will let you know if I can get it. But it's in not even fired brand new.

    I think if its a 124 .177 and it's honestly brand new and never been fired then I would pay it for a keeper, if it's 127 .22 tho then no chance they don't fetch nowhere near the same money from what I've seen.

    what he says, completely agree, if its a mint 124
