    Will photo the parts and package when received ...and will try and order other parts next time from Fwb....already have a full quote from Fwb for a large order...just didn't go through with it, and price differential is same or negligeable. Chose these guys as they do other gun makes and parts.
    I ordered some 300S parts from FWB this morning - no problems with the small parts and the postage was as "cheap as chips", but I also wanted a quote for a new barrel for my P44 pistol, and although the price was (surprisingly) OK, the delivery cost was around 100 euros!

    Seems like the factory has not recovered from the DHL problem yet and are staying strictly to the new DHL ruling - if its an air weapons part then they will not ship it - even my spare P44 pistol barrel, so I had to say "no" until they find a more reasonable carrier to work with.

    I have heard the same storey from others who had the same problem with the factory, so at this moment your source is better as they have got the delivery "sorted".

    Before the change in DHL policy, spare parts from the FWB factory were cheap to ship and delivered very quickly by DHL. I have had things sent by "others" since the change - no problem - but FWB are playing strictly to the rules.

    Maybe as a manufacturer they get less leaway to work with DHL as they know exactly what they manufacture?
