webster 90 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 been shooting hw80s now for the best part of 3 years but im fancying a change but not sure if i would be better getting my .22 tuned by tony at sandwell . in your opinions would i be better getting it tuned or chopping both the 80s in for a walther lgv . my fav has a v-mach kit in it currently and is smooth to shoot and cock but the lure of a new toy keeps my thinking about the walther whats your thoughts heres the after a few hours out Quote Link to post
milegajo 595 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) Get that tuned by the likeable, genuine and quite evidently highly skilled Tony Wall. From my handling of the Walther and the literature I've read, it is in essence a tuned Weihrauch. Allegedly they ripped off v-mach's innovations in order to achieve it. My two cents for ya! (Though if you change for a Walther, PM me!!! That's a cracking looking !) Edited November 4, 2012 by milegajo Quote Link to post
robwelsh 354 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Why change if your happy? More cost an by the look of that it be a great regret I expect..looking superb 1 Quote Link to post
Mawders 595 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 It's your money mate but I would keep the and give it to big tony, he will make that already sexy magical! Nothing else compares springer wise for sake of spending loads more. A stage 1 tune will do you wonders. ATB Mawders Quote Link to post
pianoman 3,587 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Why change if your happy? More cost an by the look of that it be a great regret I expect..looking superb My thoughts exactly Rob! And more cost to do...exactly the same again! I've thought about my TX200 .22 rifle as a possible seller..till I go shooting with it!This is a superb looking HW80K and has clearly proven itself in the field as a potent hunter. Losing this HW80 in sale or trade will be certainly regretted webster. I've had mine for nearly 15 years and it still has the power to amaze me with what it's capable of. Nobody is ever going to get the one I own, not for a hundred other rifles and thousands of £££ on the table! Keep it and save for another rifle! Pianoman Quote Link to post
RAMCAM 4 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 That's a beautiful rifle, I would not trade that in for the walther you probably won't gain anymore accuracy from another break barrel. Have you considered a fixed barrel springer like the HW97k or the HW77? Quote Link to post
webster 90 Posted November 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 i had a 77 with a v-mack kit in it and loved it but sold it for the pictured . my preference is break barrels i just like the simplicity of them . another reason is the missis is nagging about the amount of guns i own 2 80s ,1 95. a 100kt a bsa airsporter rb2 and a bsa tactical xl was thinking the lgv would be all i would need but if what you guys say about tony at sandwell is true maybe getting rid of all the springers bar the pictured and keeping the hw100 might be the way forward Quote Link to post
robwelsh 354 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Is get rid of the two bsa before any of them 1 Quote Link to post
