Is there a source for things like butt pads, front sight inserts, and other small items in the US?
And, who would be the best person to send an FWB 300 to for a tune?

Inserts will depend if you want the clear inserts or metal inserts. Clear inserts are available from several sources. Metal inserts will be more difficult to source, but the shops might have them or be able to get them for you.
I use the clear plastic inserts such as this set
http://www.champchoice.com/prod-CHAMPION_S_CHOICE_CLEAR_INSERT_SET__10___Sm_Dia_-677.aspx (http://www.champchoice.com/prod-CHAMPION_S_CHOICE_CLEAR_INSERT_SET__10___Sm_Dia_-677.aspx)
But you need to verify that it will fit YOUR FWB. There are different sizes of sights and thus inserts. Your 300 would take either 16 or 18mm. Measure the diameter of your current insert and you should be able to figure out which size yours takes. The description is small or large, and I have no idea what that means. It would have been better if they simply put the diameter in mm.
Here are a couple shops:
Champion Shooters (http://www.championshooters.com/ (http://www.championshooters.com/))
Champion's Choice (http://www.champchoice.com/ (http://www.champchoice.com/))
I know there are other sources, but I don't know of them.
I'm still recovering from loosing Neal Johnson when he retired. He was my primary parts source.
Closest smith that I know of to you is Pilkingtons in TN.
www.pilkguns.com (http://www.pilkguns.com)
They have some parts, and can probably get other parts for you.
