C1972 Fine Vintage *Fully Serviced* FWB 300S 10m Side Lever .177 Target Air Rifle with Numerous Original Match Scope Variations. AI 880. - AI 880
Manufactured by Feinwerkbau Westinger & Altenburger in West Germany. The modell 300 was much like the 150, in that it has a single coiled, steel mainspring and a thinner, more sporterised stock, yet it was labelled a 300, rather than the 150. You don’t see as many straight 300 rifles as you do 150 rifles these days. Perhaps that’s because when the 300S came out it overshadowed the 300 and drove it from the marketplace in short order. The 300S has two coiled steel springs that are wound in opposite directions, designed to cancel the slight amount of torque at firing. The 300S stock is shorter than the stock on the 300/150. It also has a more vertical pistol grip to enhance the offhand hold. This system is called the sledge system, after the name for a dry-land type of sled whose runners make it easy to drag heavy loads. In the 300-series there is a special system in the stock that isolates the shooter from the movement. A set of steel rails set into the stock allows the action to move while the stock remains still. The shooter doesn’t feel any recoil and only the slightest vibration. It is completely different from the Giss anti-recoil system, in which a counterweighted piston has no discernible recoil. The ratcheting anti-beartrap safety that prevents the sliding compression chamber from smashing your thumb during loading does not need a separate button to release the cocking lever after you’ve loaded. The only extra step the 300S does have is a small locking latch on the sidelever that unlocks the lever at the start of the cocking stroke. These rifles were sold without sights for a slightly reduced price, and many buyers mounted short scopes on their 11mm sight dovetails. The front sight looks more conventional and is of the globe design with replaceable inserts. On the 300S, it’s part of a larger aluminium barrel sleeve that makes it proprietary. This example comes with a plethora of different inserts and shrouds (see images). With the rifle comes several original rear sights and scarce bipod. The beautiful Walnut stock with adjustable butt plate has very minor age-related marks, but nothing major. The metalwork is good with nice blueing and again, only minor age-related marks. The rifle cocks, loads & dry fires perfectly as it should with a strong spring action. The price includes UK delivery.

Scarce *Acvoke .177 Air Pistol by Accles & Shelvoke Ltd. AI 637. - AI 637
The Acvoke pistol was developed after the end of WWII. The post war market for air guns proved profitable, and the leading manufacturer in the field was ‘Webley & Scott’. Accles & Shelvoke Ltd designed the Acvoke as a rival for the popular ‘Webley Junior’ pistol. The Acvoke was patented in 1946, although it was largely based on the ‘German Tell II’ air pistol. A distinctive feature that it folded when the pistol was broken. When broken, the pellet was lodged in the breech end of the barrel. The Acvoke was rather popular in the late 40’s and early 50’s because of its cheap price and very small, sleek design. This .177 example is in excellent condition for its age, showing some marks to the bluing on the cylinder, trigger/guard and cocking lever and the front sight is off centre. (See 'A Collectors Guide to Air Pistols by Dennis E. Hiller pages 8,9,10) The plastic grips have ‘Acvoke’ imprinted and are undamaged. The rear sight has ‘Accles & Shelvoke Ltd – Patent Applied For- Birmingham 6 ENG’ imprinted on it. The serial No is 14372 and is imprinted on the lever. The pistol cocks and fires crisply and its smooth bore is clean. A great piece for the collector. The price includes UK delivery.

*Very Good Condition* circa 1933 Haenel Model 28 .177 Air Pistol. AI 730. - AI 730
Hugo Schmeisser designed this pistol in 1927, but production didn’t start until around 1933. It continued up to the start of WWII but ended there. Approximately 25,000 model 28s were made, along with a few thousand earlier unnumbered guns. The model 28 has a conventional break barrel for loading, but the gun is cocked another way. The barrel is only held by a chisel detent, so all you do is break the barrel down at any time to load. The action is cocked by unlatching the pistol grip, which is a sub-frame, from the upper frame of the gun and swinging it down and to the rear. The trigger is a single stage, but a slope in the trigger mechanism allows the blade to move like a false first stage. This example is in splendid condition with the metalwork retaining 90% of its blueing. The wooden grips are equally as nice only showing very minor signs of use related wear, with the Haenel panel on both sides. The serial No is stamped on the lower side of the back strap ‘10339’. The pistol cocks and fires with a strong spring action. The price includes UK delivery. AI 730.
