The 335 is quite nice, but a bit of a disappointment for something bearing the Anschutz name. Is it actually any better than a Diana 35 or BSF70?
I totally agree on your comments re the Omega it is a wonderful little rifle bar it’s awful looking trigger blade. It’s a real shame it was too late and was at a time it’s impact couldn’t help an ailing Webley.
The Anschutz is not as nice handling as the FWB or the Omega it has its part in break barrel history I’m glad to have it in my collection.
People said smile things could get worse, so I smiled and they did!
