FWB 700 Universal

[Iain D]

Hi all, can anyone put me in touch with someone who can service the above rifle, also any one got an idea of the shot count per cylinder.
I’ve just had the rifle out today after 5-6 years, after 25 shots pressure in cylinder had gon down from 200 bar to 175, is this about right?

Just wondering as I’ve literally done nothing service wise since I got the rifle many years ago, don5 want to get 5o a situation that it may fail because of my lack of intervention.

Thanks

I wouldn't be too hasty with getting it serviced unless its not performing as it should.
Shoot it over a chrono which will reveal all. If it's not consistent or low in power, then get it serviced.

City Air Weapons in Solihull are a FWB stockist and target rifle specialists. They'd either be able to service it, or advise who can.

Hi, City Air Weapons have moved to Brearley Street in Hockley B'ham. Or try Dave Price {wonkydonkey] on forums; or Shaun at ISP rifles; I know both very well and they are excellent guys. However as has been said chrono it first, check simple stuff like breech seals which will compress or just ''go off'' through lack of use.

I don't think Dave is taking on any more work as he's enjoying his well earned retirement.

Thanks all for the reply’s, I’ll get it over a chronograph and then make a decision, might try and get breech seal as it’s the only thing I could replace myself if it requires it
Is there any clues as to what a healthy rifle puts out in FPS?
