I've just picked up a hw85 in 177 just wondering how I can find out which mk it is and how old the serial no is 1082563 

Thanks for any replies

I had a few of these also 1987 models. The best era when their build quality was at the best. Is it a screw off back block? and stamped made in West Germany? If so it was made  before the Berlin wall came down. A good strip, Polish, tbt drop in kit and uprated cocking shoe transformed mine. A very rare bueaty too in .177.

I read these threads, hw posts etc etc. And I find myself wondering, if germany doesn't have our 12ft lb muzzle energy restrictions, how and what are their air rifle power limitaions made to?
