Johann zähringer and mec’s new<br />

„super butt plate“ for competition rifles.<br />

MEC/CENTRA<br />

<strong>THE</strong> ULTIMATE bUTT PLATE<br />

40-year old German company centra is best<br />

known for their sights but the big news<br />

for 2012 is a new butt plate which is very<br />

adjustable. It is compatible with all common<br />

match rifles. With right accessories it can<br />

be used in all ISSF disciplines and positions.<br />

It is manufactured by MEC, a close collaborator<br />

with centra. Other new products are<br />

tube-like rear sights Spy Short and Spy Long<br />

which are said to improve the sight picture.<br />

Under MEC brand come two new economy<br />

type buttstocks for air rifle and 22’s. They are<br />

not as widely adjustable as Mark I Start line<br />

but the price is more accommodating. They<br />

can be upgraded afterwards if so desired.<br />

Two gentlemen named Karl Westinger and<br />

Ernst Altenburger started Feinwerkbau business<br />

in Oberndorf in 1951. The gun production<br />

has started in 1956 with airguns. Feinwerkbau<br />

is still today renowned for their match grade<br />

air rifles and pistols, but 22 LR rifles and pistols<br />

are also part of the product palette. Third<br />

generation of Westingers and Alterburgers are<br />

managing the company now. Model 800, the<br />

newest of Feinwerkbau competition air rifles<br />

features a most versatile, futuristic looking,<br />

adjustable aluminum stock which dampens<br />

the vibrations. The pistol grip is available in<br />

three sizes, both right and left handed versions.<br />

The front hand rest is 3-axis adjustable.<br />

The trigger system is tuned for the shortest<br />

possible lock time. Air regulation system produces<br />

maximum number of competition shots.<br />

The cocking lever is freely adjustable and<br />

rotatable around its axis so it will not interfere<br />

with the rear sight. Available in March 2012.<br />
