Given Feinwerkbau's seemingly endless versions of the FWB 300/FWB 300S models, this one got my attention.

*** A FWB 300S Universal walnut stock of early vintage,

*** with a FWB 300 action that include the later FWB 300S trigger bar (thu allowing for the moving trigger blade as seen on all FWB 300S models)),

*** and the barrel with double machining to accept a high or low pin front sight as wll as the FWB 300S Universal dovetail style,

*** and the front sight machined to slide over the FWB 300 barrel shroud.

Whatever it is, darn nice to shoot an as accuracte as they come.

I always referred to the flat blade sliding trigger as the older style as all my older 300S examples have it...including one made in 1972. All of my newer examples have the cone trigger with the rotating wider shoe attached, including one that left FWB in 1998.

These two RTs show both triggers, the older gun having the straighter blade trigger. You use to refer to the cone type as a Type 2 trigger. This leads me to believe that is an early Universal with risers and the front perhaps modified by FWB.

My greatest interest has not been pretty wood but interesting variations and modifications by the factory and shooters. If I were still collecting I would love to have that one...

Hey, that's my FWB you are displaying there. Well, almost. I have the barrel weight and two different height cheek pads as well
