I know there is a 102 for sale but have not seen a 103. Also if I had a chance to buy a 103 what would be a good price for a really nice pistol

I have not shot a 102 but I think I would prefer my K58 over the 102, simply because the 102 has 2 cocking levers that you have to cock one before the other. The cocking effort is reduced but the operation itself is doubled. Seems like more to think about between shots to me. The K58 costs less than the any of the FWB 100 series and I don't think the 100 or 102 offer any advantages as far as accuracy, sights, or trigger adjustment over the K58. I don't know if the 100 or 102 have dry fire capabilities, but the early K58's don't.

The 102 is more refined than the K58, has a higher muzzle velocity and
both the 100 and 102 series have dry firing capabilities.
The K-58 is not a bad gun at all, just that 'you get what you pay for'.
