What springer did you shoot today?

[JohnTaylor]

I agree, the HW75 is much better to shoot than the 45. I like the way it fits my hand, but the ergonomics of cocking to me are still tiring. The IZH looks weird but is much easier to cock and the trigger is much better. Mine has the optional trigger that can be adjusted up/down on the trigger shaft and pivoted to fit your finger better. I think the pull weight on mine is about 3 oz, so light even my Wheeler electronic gauge has trouble measuring it.
I have been trying to find one of the FWB 100 series SSP pistols but have not been having any luck.

Just a heads up…there’s a FWB LP 102 for sale on American Airguns…from a reputable seller…John

I was going to attempt a rebuild on the 75 I had awhile back, I bought all the stuff from JM, but sold it before I got around to it. I'm sure it would've been a struggle..lol. Parts diagram looks like a nightmare.

My 75 is creeping up on twenty years old and still rock solid. I hope it stays that way.

This barrel slugs fine but still doesn't shoot well. I'm at a loss. There may be the reason this gun is in excellent condition.

Like a low milage used car that I once bought.

I’m not familiar with a 102 but the guy I got my 601 has one. He is having it checked out. Is it worth grabbing. Crow

They are really cool…like an SSP, only it has 2 levers, and you cock it twice. Ups the muzzle velocity. Anyway..I always admired them…not lust though. John

Passing on the 102 but found a 300s junior. We’ll see. Crow

Fired my 22 caliber XS46U field target rifle l got from Mike at Flying Dragon. It shoots 16 grains at 580 fps. It’s right on 12 ft lb. I have a 22 and a .177 I’m going to use as loaners for the field target club.

Good for you! Never owned a 300, but have shot a few…VERY nice rifles! If I didn’t have a 75 and a 65, I’d own one. I’d be curious to see how it performs on your range….with the extended yardage. Pictures? John

 

[rootdude]

I didn’t.

 

[beerthief]

Not much time today Travel to town ,bank , store , paint store , Hospital ,(paperwork ) Mowing . Still shot HW75 pistol . Webley rifle , BSA light probably 50 pellets total . more time tomorrow .

 

[crowski]

Shot two 50’s . First up a .177 black. Wood stock, nice gun, accurate.

Also a .20 cal. picking off spring targets at 47 yds.

Great day. Also got my tractor repaired, buddy with fab plant saved the day. Crow

I’ve paid for it. Probably won’t be in my hands for a few weeks. Pony express would be faster. Crow

Thanks, but when I got there to look it shows as sold.

 

[crowski]

Started to clean around the range. Superb day. Also shot my Diana 350 mag. .22 cal. If they could just eliminate the plastic safety housing, this gun would rule. So close, but no cigar.

At 47 yds. these are no match.

The 2nd from right broke. Very accurate and hits like no other springer, IMO.
Also gave a TX200 .177 a spin.

This delivers the lead. Crow

 

[RCope]

Only had a short period of time, so took out one of my best, .177 HW 30 with a CS stock:

Bummer….same thing happened to me with an LP100. Guess we’re getting a little slower in our old age. Best of luck in the future. John

This evening got back on range with a HW77 .25. A family favorite.
