I have restarted my air pistol activities, originally considering my LP 10 as primary gun. - An old FWB 100 should be my back-up solution, in case of need..

An internal seal in the FWB was gone over time so I had it repaired and given it a try afterwards. Now, especially due to the convincing trigger action (compared to the LP 10) I am rethinking this decision.

My absolute best result was 572 during training achieved with a DIANA Model 10 in the late 80s. So far I could not repeat this.

I also have a FWB 100 and shoot it a lot, recently during a competition I cranked the leaver to charge and cock the pistol and the link mechanism between leaver and cylinder broke. FWB in Germany supplied a new part and a local gun shop fitted it. Total cost £60 UK pounds. Well done FWB for supplying a part I needed for 24 year old pistol off their stores shelf.
I finished the competition with a friends Pardini K58, another good under leaver SSP pistol, score 554. (I then bought the Pardini).
I hope you enjoy shooting your FWB 100 as much as I do mine.
