There were a couple of reasonable condition 65’s at Kempton Park for over £300.
This price probably included a bit of room to haggle.
£300 sounds a good price for someone who wants a boxed minter.

I would agree £300 for a ''Mint'' example, but I would need to see proof of a recent service including all seals given their age to pay that much.

Law of any kind only affects those willing to abide by it.
The great thing about the FWB65 is the incredible build quality. Even tatty looking ones can shoot brilliantly and do so for years to come, with only a few service parts to replace.
I once had one that looked like it hadn't been serviced for decades, if ever, and it could outshoot any pistol I had at the time.
We are fortunate to be around when serious current match pistols are all PCPs, because the FWB spring pistols are being offloaded at prices which are around the same as a new modern plinker - yet the distance between the two in terms of design and materials is enormous; the difference between a bicycle and a Ferrari. Both will get you from A to B but the similarity ends there.
PS I can talk this model up without fear of being accused of being self-serving because I have no plans to sell off my collection any time soon.
