    Thanks for putting all the effort into producing this video, wish we could see more of these on other air guns. I do a lot of 6 repairs and they are so very easy to work on when you have developed a good procedure on assembly. I prefer to work on these anytime over the FWB 65. The 10 is not too different than the 6 but the trigger has more parts to assemble.

    I echo everybody else's comments. A superbly informative video which will have great interest for collectors and shooters alike.

    Thanks,
    John

    Thanks for the comments guys,
    Much appreciated.
    Since getting that cutaway mod 6 I’d probably feel reasonably confident stripping and reassembling one.
    It’s a bit more mysterious trying to visualise it from the bits you take out.

    I’ll do some more vids on vintage airguns, probably not quite as ambitious as that one, I’d been planning to do it for ages.
    There’s so little Vintage airgun stuff on YouTube, apart from a few ‘pioneers’ I think it’s well worth the effort.

    Cheers,
    Matt.

    Well put together Matt - The FWB 100 series I think are the pinnacle of the ssp pistols.

    My only concern is your video may intimidate others from trying? Just too well done, makes others look like the amateurs we are.
