Bought Another Fwb Sport Today !!!

[mark williams 7,549]

Well reading through the threads this morning I noticed one by Mitch ( VM) where he was going to check on a sale from the free ads site.

So, as you do, I carried on surfing through the free ads site and found a FWB Sport 124 ( 177 cal) for sale complete with all original open sights and nigh on immaculate.

I rang the guy, made arrangements to view and by 1pm this afternoon I was in Burton- on- Trent .

I had my fingers, legs, arms crossed that this was a mk1 124 ?

 

Very hard to find, in fine order, with all original open sights intact.

 

 

" IT WAS" ! and now I have a matching pair of classics.

 

A FWB Sport 127 mk 1 (.22) - 1978

 

A FWB Sport 124 mk1 ( .177). - 1978

 

 

Here she is lads,- look at that vintage stock.

 

 

 

Merry Christmas

Air Gun World made me fully aware of these rifles Mackem and I bought my 127 from Oliver Summers gun smiths in Wigan in the 70`s, second hand.

 

All my mates were green with envy as I soon had the latest 3-9x 40 scope on her from my £25/week apprenticeship. A £44 Nicko Sterling

I do wish you would stop with all this vintage nonsense, you are forcing me to search even harder for a BSF b55 bavaria now, aaaaaaaaaagh.
