Hi all,

I have problem with my fwb 65, recoil does not work as it should be. Whole body can be moved alone. Is there anyone who know recoil operation of this pistol (tehnical). I found manual for this pistol (it's not enough), maybe someone have measurements because I suspect that one part is exploited over years of shooting :) or maybe see on pictures what is wrong ?!
Here is Youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzcGL9BFht0

And here are some pictures of parts I belive are problem:

It does look like the part on the picture is worn out.

This is the only parts list I could find.

The mechanism should hold the slide in position until the trigger is pulled, perhaps the wear is letting the parts slide over the sear that hold them in place?

On this drawing http://www.pilkguns.com/tenp/fwb65ex.htm

You can see part 22 that releases the slide to allow the recoil on trigger release.

As I suspected.
Thank You, I just need to find parts on other side of the world :( or maybe order online if they send internationaly.

If anyone wan't more pictures of pistol's inside now is best time to ask. I have plenty :)

Best regards

This gun is older than me, but I can make 530+ with it. This is best gun we have in club and I'm thinking to buy izzy. It cost 450€ here.

These people may be able to help with spares.

They found a lot of 300s ones for three rifles I am restoring.
