Nice to hear he's found out who his Dad is! (that came out sounding wrong, but you know what I mean....)

The new one is heavier than the first one. Dad will help him.

I know what you mean LOL!!!

Thanks Wayne

Is that a matching pair Lewis :lol: :lol: One for Dad .....

Good to hear from you and see you still pop in to visit.

Actually taking a longer look on the internet looking at the brochure it is very similar to my R9 but with a little more grunt with 15 ftlb from a .17 Be interesting to see if they bring out other cals.

I'm hoping for it in .20, my favourite sporter calibre. They made three or four of the first Sport in .20 and called it the 125.

If I got one I'd probably get a .177 as I don't have a good .177.

Got the .22 127, got the big .22 350 Mag and the .20 Sheridan so I'll have the bases covered. :)

.177 will be fine too with JSB Exact 8.4 and F/T 8.9 I reckon.

+1 to that
Getting lawnmower & parts just isn't as much fun as air guns. Still good to deal with a great guy.

Nothing to do with airguns, but I thought of Lewis the other day when I saw my mate's ride on in the implement shed.....

He doesn't know if it's vintage, but reckons it's a classic!

That is a bit of an oldie at 10 years or so. We go way back to 1966 and plenty are still out mowing!

Would pick one up in a second if they were in .20. I do have a rather good collection of 20 pills :)

As a teenager out of school I used to mow the neighbours place on an old greenfield would spend most of sunday slaving on that old girl. Was a good mower with the instant forward and reverse pedal, rather interesting going down hill and shoving it in reverse...prob good thing the tyres were worn and spun and not grabbed :lol: :lol: a

Now if they did a 20 one would definitely be heading for my cabinet as I have quite a stock pile of 20's thanks to Lewis. I really like they have made the stock ambidextrous too, probably not a concern to many but it does make it easier when you shoot left handed.

Good to see you still around the forum too Lewis.

I reckon it will be great in .20. I am frankly surprised that FWB have made it but very glad! I have extreme respect for FWB and the way they do things.

Never on the cheap or made to a price!

Greenfields are great!!!

I was at the stihl shop yesterday and saw a black one with the bonnet scoop and a sports steering wheel.
looked like a tough racing machine.

The new FWB looks like classic already. I will get a 300 or 300s one day. Have been researching the hunting 5 all this week.

Can't beat a German made air rifle.

That would be one of the black Kohler engined series. They all come with the sports steering wheel now and bonnet scoop.

I need one!!! You cannot go wrong with an FWB.The 150/300/300S are wonderful!!

The Hunting 5 looks superb.I like Steyrs.

And now with a quick fill. A big plus.

Can someone tell me what the difference is between the FWB 300 and 300s?
