FWB 601 Junior or Mini
Posted: Tue Oct 11, 2016 11:44 pm
Hi All,
I have an FWB 601. I would like to lighten the rifle if possible but I don't want to make any irreversible changes. My first thought was to see if there was a junior or mini option for the FWB 601. So far I have only found that there was a 603 Junior and a C60 Junior.
I am inexperienced with the FWB 600 line and I can only get my information from searching the internet. I have found, I think, that the 600 and 601 stocks are the same. Also I read that there were changes in the 602 stock and then more changes in the 603 stock. I think the C60 has more in common with the 603 stock than the 600/601 stocks.
From what I have read it seems that junior rifles reduce weight by removing shrouds and more compact or lighter material stocks.
I had initially thought just to buy another junior ssp rifle, which I will most likely do regardless as I have my sights on a Anschutz 2002 mini, but I would also like the option to lighten the 601 since I don't think I will ever sell it.
Thank you All in advance!
