The wire is thinner, and the coil diameter is smaller, which made the rifle easy to cock.Įasy cocking A 124 is so easy to cock compared to the other powerhouses of the day. It did not change the trigger-pull one iota! Beeman R1 spring on top is dwarfed by the extra-long 124 spring. The trigger blade was black plastic until the complaints piled high enough to force the factory to switch to aluminum. The stock was beech, but the early ones had a wundhammer palm swell that delighted the unaccustomed shooting hands of Americans. When pellets came out the spout, they were always the same size. The 124 was endowed with a splendid example of what they could do when they put their minds to it. With light pellets compared to the HW 35’s 750.Īnd, the powerful 124 had that barrel! FWB barrels are the best Feinwerbau has long had the reputation as the airgun company that makes the finest barrels.
The Weihrauch 35 had a Rekord trigger that put the 124’s pitiful unit to shame, but it had to do so from the slow lane. Despite having a less-than-desirable trigger that challenged airgunsmiths and a new automatic safety we all learned to hate, the 124 prevailed above all others. It was a one-trick monkey, while the HW 35 went on to be stretched and supersized into the Beeman R1 early in the 1980s. And, let’s be fair, the 124 was a wow in.177 but a relative dog in.22, as the model 127. Its piston was slender compared to the others, but a modern parachute piston seal made maximum use of the air it compressed. Within a year, two of the three challengers were also over 800, with only the Weihrauch 35, the largest of them all, still lagging.įeinwerkbau used technology to triumph The FWB 124 used a longer stroke coupled with a long but weak mainspring to generate a more powerful blast of air. Then, from nowhere, the svelte Feinwerkbau 124 came along and shattered the barrier with power to spare. They offered nothing especially new, but with brute force and sheer size (except for the BSF) they were poised to break through the barrier. A few models were knocking at the gate – the Weihrauch 35, the Diana 45 and the BSF 55. When it was new in the 1970s, the 800 f.p.s. The 124 was, perhaps, the first spring-piston rifle to use technology over brute force to develop power. Why is it so popular and what makes it such a classic? Feinwerkbau’s 124 was an all-time classic air rifle! It ushered in the modern age of magnum spring rifles. This one spring-piston air rifle epitomizes the entire hobby. Pelletier If it’s motorcycles, it’s a Harley. Thank you for making the cocking levers and slides. I know many others who would like to dress up their old guns but do not have the skill to complete a D.I.Y. I have a high grade like the picture in your Gallery #3. Absolutely Superb!! Please bring back the finished custom stocks for the 124-127. Why FWB didn't think of this I'll never know. Missouri You came highly recommended by not one but two ex-FWB importers. My R1 is due next for the transformation. G.R.- Canada Since installing your custom 127 kit, it's hanging right there in velocity with my.22 caliber R1. Utah Your tune kits and trigger blades have totally transformed my FWB sporters beyond my expectations.

I can see the factories not being able to hold trigger blade tolerances as close as you do, but I am starting to see how many of the negative comments on not being able to upgrade the FWB sport triggers were simply nonsense. I am in shock really. Having seen so many bad comments about the factory trigger, I thought the stock trigger was all there was. I believe I would rather have this simple design than a complicated Rekord that offers nothing more or different. Beeman air rifle, Feinwerkbau owner's manual, air gun, 124 127.
