New to the airgun forum here, but long time 24hrcf guy of course.
I just came into possesion of some REALLY EXCEPTIONAL air guns that I need to now sell. Is there a whole forum somewhere with a classifieds that is dedicated to air rifles?
Mine are two FWB 300's, one the "S" model with fully adjustable cheekpiece etc, an RWS Diana model 52 in 25 Caliber, and a Howa 55-C that looks for all the world like a Weatherby Mk V Deluxe big game rifle! Gorgeous wood and bluing etc and uses a bolt action repeatinig rifle system with two CO2 cartridges for power.
Anyone know of an ROTC or School team that could use some really high end stuff like these? VERY nice airguns, but far better than I need for backyard squirrels and such.
Thanks in advance for the help. PM me if someone here wants one or all of these, also.

Never heard of that one, but I will look for it. Thanks!
What part of Eastern Wa are you in? Any where near my home of Walla Walla?

Another site would be GTA International. It's full of known air gun smith's.

GTA and the Yellow are two good sites, but another one, for the FWB 300s might be Target Talk. It's a site dedicated to competitive marksmanship, and has a buy/sell forum...

Thank you so much, everyone. I have been busy with Christmas stuff lately, and tomorrow I have to catch up on shipping some stuff out to people whom are owed various things by me, but right after that, I will look into these sites and join one or two if I must to get these fine rifles advertised in the right places and to groups of people who appreciate and use such high end stuff.
Much Obliged!

Harder to find the people who appreciate these things but I sold one on armslist recently. Took longer to find the right people though.

Mark,
There's a little gun shop in Lynnwood called Adventure Sports. They (used to, dunno about now) have a guy in there by the name of Dale I believe who was big into high end airguns. They sell higher end airguns there. They took an Air Arms TX200 MkIII and sold it for me on consignment. Got what I wanted out of it. It took me a while but it sold. Always regretted that dumbarse decision.

It's about like this:

AirgunAdvice.net is another place to try.

Thanks for all of help everyone! I sold both of my Model 300 FWB's and now only have an RWS/Diana model 52 in 25 cal that I think I will keep. It needs a cocking piece and maybe a look see at its seals and such. Are the places you guys mentioned above good places to have repairs and or tuneups and upgrades done? Wondering if the RWS/Diana guns can be juiced up a little more.

Updates to follow.....
