Why do I find myself grabbing this gun first? She is not the most accurate spring piston I own (HW97K), she is not the smoothest rifle (TX200MK3), she is not the most powerful .177 (Beeman R11). If I were to sell any of my rifles to upgrade she would be first, but for some unknown reason she gives me so much pleasure. :) Do not get me wrong, she is accurate, and is pretty smooth, has enough power. I must admit I think she does have the prettiest dress. :)

Because it is,...you just have to accept it. That FWB is calling out,....if not begging you to give her a nice tune. So give in to the force and bring out every pure drop of excellence she has to offer. Then the rest of your arsenal will really see dust collecting :)

Some rifles just feel and handle is such a way you just enjoy shooting them.
Of my springers the HW35 is that way ... modest weight, easy cocking, really accurate with very satisfying SNAP shot cycle.
It just fits the way i like to shoot an open sight air rifle.

The thread title made me think this was about a sporty car. Nevertheless, your rifle looks very nice, and sporty, too.

So don't EVER sell it. You will be sorry.....

Just bought another PCP, she may have to go if the wife finds out. LOL

A lovely FWB 300S recently found me and I have been using it in my basement nearly every day. It is the gun I want to use most because it's so great to shoot! It feels great in the hands, it's easy to cock, it is quiet (although it has a twang), it has zero kick and it's amazingly accurate.
The Air Arms T200 PCP target rifle is not nearly as nice as the FWB. If I need to make room for another treasure, that PCP will go before the FWB!

Hi Will: "easy to cock" : yes!
BUT:
Never cock twice: afterwards you are in VERY big trouble! The 300S-Fräulein does not forgive ;)

Well I decided to sell the FWB & R1. I would like to get a Shoebox & air tank. :) I will be happy with just 4 to 5 guns. As long as I have 2 .177s and 2 .22s and a place to shoot life is good. :) I have a shed that I shoot from so rain, cold, or hot weather has no effect on my shooting.

::) ::) ::) Did you install an A/C unit in your man cave ??? ;D

A used free standing A/C & Heater, but needs to be replaced already. LOL I still need to insulate the place and get electricity hooked up instead of extension cords.

Sorry to hear you are selling your sport. Mine tuned up very nicely and I'd never get rid of her..

Perhaps you've gone mad. It's a shame. :(

No! Mad is when my wife finds out I bought a Galatian. :) I am just going to tell her it is a gun coming back from the tuner, and hope she does not see the credit card bill.
