CaptainBeaky Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 Wasn't the Feinwerkbau 300 the first match quality air rifle with a fixed barrel and side lever? I remember the Original 75 coming out, as the update to the break-barrel 66, using the same opposed-piston recoilless system, and in direct competition with the FWB 300. Very nice rifle, but too expensive for me at the time to trade up from my 66 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
