Best Place To Buy A Hw80

[codmaster127 64]

now chaps , been thinking of buying a hw80 second hand but have second thoughts and might buy new , but were from , any deals on anywere, cheers

You don't get deals on icons mate although Mac sold what I look back on as a missed opportunity.

 

Buy new if you wish, buy sending hand if it's been well looked after... it'll stick pellets in the same hole longer after your eyes can even see that far and only get sweeter with age. God, I did missed out on owning an eighty... If I ever sold my 97 I'd consider an HW80 in .22.

 

You don't see that many come up second hand to be honest, probably due to every owner not really wanting to let a stablemate of their collection go, even though they wont get used, they'll just sit in the cupboard, but when it does get out, just like the day it was bought, only better.

 

Buy new and keep it for a lifetime.

 

By the way. COD... PC or console? MW 4 or 2?

That's a rifle to go for. One of the original and best of the breed. I'd snap that up if I was out for a secondhand HW80 at that price.

 

To attest to what Rez has said.

 

Mine is an 18 year old .22 veteran of thousands of rabbits and has given me some of the best dusk and dawn hours of my hunting life out shooting with it.

 

Those who appreciate this German icon of a break barrel air rifle, say it is the best HW80 they have ever come across. Long barrelled and a long range pest killer. I use it against rabbits, rats and Mink that roam on my permissions. Against Mink especially, it is a hunting man's best friend! A shot anywhere in their heads and it's lights out.`

 

It is tuned to 21.6 ft/lbs on my FAC and NO amount of cash will ever induce me to part with it.

 

Get one! Even a badly duffed-up and neglected example will refurbish back into a prize specimin rifle that will put quarry in the bag and a bloody big grin on your face

looked at one for 175.00 but me not really knowing that much about air riffles let it go, this one had telescopic sights on it but didnt have the open sights ,does anyone know if you can still get them , priced a new one today at a local shop was quoted 390,

[treecreeper 1,136]

Sure iv seen them advertised online for 340, where abouts are you?

looked on line and found one for 340.00 carbine ,and the traditional hw80 287, which i think is quite good , next question 177 or 22. never had a 177 before so might try it,
