    Other FWB and Diana "Universal"

    The "U" can be changed to more specialized 10 meter versions like the FWB RT, Diana K or HV, or kept standard match as here, a 300SU and Diana 75U. The dovetail accepts diopter, riser, scope, front sight is easy to remove, stock configuration and front stippling resembles the running target...

    FWB Where is my sleeve?

    I thought all FWB300 had a long barrel sleeve? This gun is so front heavy with long barrel/sleeve, it's almost better this way!

    Diana Diana, FWB, Anschutz seals

    The original breech/piston buffer/seals used on the FWB 120 series and 10M guns, on the Anschutz springer 10M guns, (and maybe also on the Diana) was a yellow-white material that degrades with time. The modern materials used on FWB and Anschutz are colored, red, blue, or green depending of when...

    FWB Robert Law ARH 120 stock

    ...awhile ago I contacted Richards to ask if they would make a modern copy of the old stocks: no interest, and most of their work now are laminates for high end firearms...

    FWB Robert Law ARH 120 stock

    Beautiful. Were the ARH stocks made for Law by Richards Microfit, as were the Beeman Custom Shop stocks? That stock you showed at the beginning of the topic sure looks like a Beeman Custom Shop stock?

    Traditional Rifle Lyman 17AEU front sight

    LYMAN 17 AEU and aperture set. This is what you need if you have an early Weihrauch airgun that's missing its original front sight (that's hard to find?). The dovetail is cut across the barrel. The 17AEU fits that European dovetail. Please note the photo, and ONLY the front sight and inserts are...

    HW/Weihrauch Hw30n

    Are these stocks made by, or more likely on order from some other stock maker for Weihrauch, presumably in Europe...or...are they made up on order from AOA, presumably in USA? It's a very classic American design with none of the weird (I think?) modern European features: curlicues in the pressed...

    HW/Weihrauch Hw30n

    Do you think they will make that stock available for folks who want to upgrade the earlier guns?

    FWB Original FWB 300 in the box

    ...the peanut gallery that is AGN Traditional Airguns always likes pictures: here's a picture: 110, 150, 300...:)

    HW/Weihrauch Show your hw 35...

    That is a late 60's early 70's version with a single sided safety, red dot on the left, no safety button visible on the right? It could be an ARH/Law marketed example, but the slot for the breech lock lever is oversized, the finger groove deleted, and the checkering on the wrist very unusual...

    FWB FWB 150 I'm Obsessed

    That's by Harlan Howe, gunsmith on Long Island, 1940-70's or so.

    FWB FWB 150 I'm Obsessed

    Since you like your 150 you should see this one, a FWB 110, very similar externally but a bit less sophisticated without the sled/sledge mechanism...and a 300. Actually you can make a 110 into a 150, or a 150 into a 110!

    FWB FWB 150 I'm Obsessed

    The 150 was made 1962-68, the 300 from '69-'71. Unless you are an olympic level marksman you will not be able to tell any of them apart, and other than for the Diana 75 I don't think there is any more accurate 10m spring piston airgun? The later models, after the 300 non S, have less attractive...

    HW/Weihrauch New HW30 Jr.

    It's very early, I think the front sight is original, I guess "V" means rifled barrel, and Mike will tell us more. ...image from e-gun...

    HW/Weihrauch New HW30 Jr.

    Maybe they are trying to copy this curiosity from 1951-2 with that very short barrel? (HW50V)

    Other Walther: What does "V" mean?

    The Walther LG55 was introduced in 1955, the LGV a few years later. The "V" is for "verbessern" or "verbessert", meaning "improved"...presumably the modern LGV was also improved over something? Here, LG55 and early LGV with breech lock.
