Buying a Weihrauch


Recommended Posts

Iv been tempted to swap the hw97k in for a hw95 or 80 as the the 97 is a tad heavy for my liking and the two break barrels would be more point able but tbh I wouldn't consider myself part of the noodle arm crew at 15 stone 7.

 

Another thing is the hw95k is a much nice looking rifle than the hw97k and once my job situation is sorted out il be purchasing ether a s/h r10 with ultra barrel for £400 or brand new Hw95k for 300

Can i please ask why you must have open sights mate?   Sure they are great for fast target acquisition, ratting at very close ranges as well as ferals but you have not mentioned that.   Having ope

You gentlemen here are too kind to me. But to be honest Daniel, you are in very fine company with these good men. Their shooting is as amazing as their knowledge is a force to be reckoned with any day

Personally mate, if you like breakys more, then a hw35,95 or 'll serve you fine, you can pick up good second hand 's for around 150 and if the weight suits you ok then you've a rifle for life, with a

2 very different guns you mention there. I shoot spring and pcp. But you wont get the same 'connection' if thats the right word, with the pcp.

 

If you find the right springer for you, and you shoot it well, it will be your favorite gun and you will not sell it on as like i said, you seem to 'connect' with it in the same way.

 

For me it was the HW95. Ive had the hell tuned out of it :D , custom stock, ultra short barrel. Custom moderator made with a bit weight in it just so it balances right for me. Lots of guns come and go but that one is here to stay.

Just a quick update, picked up an HW80 today. It is quite something, heavy but I find that it's easy to hold steady. Unfortunately it was dark by the time I got home so I haven't fired it yet. I've ordered a Hawke 3-9x40 AO which should come later on this week along with some see through mounts.

 

Thanks for all the advice,

Daniel

You won't go far wrong with an 80 mate!

Best break barrel on the planet, once tuned, even with the walther lgv2012 snapping at its heels cos its such a simple yet efficient rifle.

 

The dogs danglies. Full stop.

 

Cheers, wurz

Wise choice, let us know when she's taken her first scalp.

I've had most of the top springer's HW 80, Pro sport, HW 97 KT but the Best one for Me is the Original Hunter and Target Rifle the HW 77 in .22 Cal :yes:

Especially with the New Ambi Stock So a Gifted Leftie like Me can shoot it to it's true Potential and it's still untuned and i'm smacking cracking groups with it :laugh:

But coupled with the hefty Falcon Menace Scope it's Not for the Noodle Arms Brigade.

Awesome gun! I'm a lefty and mine's a still got the right hand biased stock but even with that it will blow the shlong off a gnat at air gun ranges in the right hands... or left.
