Good Points: Easy to cock and loads easy as well. It shoots a wide range of pellets well.

Bad Points: Only one it's a little heavy at 9 lbs. but if it weighed less it would not be so well made. I will take the extra weight rather than loose quality.

General comments: I have had my Feinwerkbau Sport 124 for over 25 years simply put it's the best shooting air rifle I have ever owned. I'm 61 years young and have grown up shooting Daisy, Crossman and Benjamin pump guns. In fact I still have my second Benjamin and it still shoots great. I own some 30 different rifles, pistols and shotguns I hand load for most of them but I have never owned a finer built firearm than my Feinwerkbau Sport 124. Anyway thats my 2 bits worth on the subject.

I have owned a FWB Sport 124 since new and purchased from Sussex Arms in 1978 as a 'tuned' version having all its essential bits honed and polished to perfection. It has only required one spring/piston change since I moved down under in 1990 and was fitted with an Ox spring in Brisbane.
Rifle shoots with amazing accuracy and easy to cock - would require slight detune for UK though as is consistently putting out around 13 - 14 ft lbs at the muzzle using a variety of pellets This is first class ai ...

I just bought my Freinwerkbau sport 124 two days ago , and then trying it for shooting target with all my friend all night long, and we were surprised with this old air rifles performances. All of us just a beginner for shooting target , but we can hit a very little target ( just a 2 cm square) from 15 m shooting range , and one of taget made from wood ( yoyo) , we hang it , and then it become into a pieces after get hit by our feinwerkbau .

First off, this gun lasts forever, mine has been past down to me from my father and it must be well over 20 years old but its still killing. I have had so many kills with this gun i couldn't even try and count and i know it had a lot of kills before i got my lucky hands on it. Its the most amazing gun to hold, it shoots how a good hunting rifle should shoot. I really wish they still made these guns. I have a leather strap on my rifle which has been there since the gun was made and that too is st ...

I have had Air rifles for over 45 years and have had in excess of 25 variations of them right up to and including some of the upper range precharged which I still have. However the only springer I hold in great esteem is the Feinwerkbau Sport. Believe you me it is a true classic. Been involved in engineering most of my life I have modified and rebuilt Air rifles of every description and the FWB sport was the best modified rifle I ever did. I took it apart (must use a spring compressor ini ...

I bought my Feinwerkbau sport 124D from Beeman's in 1977. I got the full tune up at the time along with the select stock. This rifle has been a beloved part of my family for 27 years. I spent MANY pleasurable hours plinking away at small targets at long ranges. I have even taken ground squirrels at near 100 yards.
I let the rifle set for almost the last five years in a gun case with no attention.
Needless to say, it was not right when I took it out to shoot it a few weeks ago. The breech sea ...

For the serious hunter - look hard for the Feinwerkbau Sport 127 , as Feinwerkbau didn`t attain all those `Gold Medal Olympic Shooters` using their rifles for nothing - did they ?

The best rifle (springer) -- `BY FAR`

I have used the Feinwerkbau sport for hunting and have actually killed a pigeon at 125 yards away. That really surprised me! It took 6 shots but to do it. I still have the gun and plan on holding on to it. The accuracy is so good it will give a grouping about 2 inches at 75 yards when bench rested. I have used it to hunt rabbits,crows, ducks, and other pests. My friend came over and asked to use it to kill a opossum in the roof where he could not use a .22 I recommend get the Maccari deluxe upgr ...

My Feinwerkbau has a customised left handed stock which is a little crude but effective. It needs to be re-glued and could do with a tune. Its still capable of giving me .5inch groups at 20 metres (fitted with a nikko sterling X4 X 32 sight). Please tell me more about this rifle,what can i do to improve it, who can most effectively tune it for me and can i buy a standard stock for it ???
