HW/Weihrauch  Barrel interchangeability

The lock up on the receiver side is pretty much set by the top of the fixed wedge. I'm wondering if someone at the factory is installing that wedge upside down?

A misplaced barrel pivot hole would also cause a shift in lock up position but I'm betting these are computer machined and less likely to be off.

I did get a new 50 sent to me recently and it had minimal droop that would likely go away as the breech seal flattens to size. There's hope they addressed the droop in the new models.
I hope so too, it seems to be a common theme here with the droop the rifles are shipped with.

I never thought about the lock up side of it...I only have the one Weihrauch so nothing to compare mine with but those with multiple rifles could compare to see if that could be a factor.

Other  Have you seen EPIC?

A lot of money for something that has not yet been researched and proven, in the EU the price is around €2K, I'd rather save a little more and buy a Skout Epoch mk2 to enjoy until retirement.

Couldn't agree more. With a Skout Epoch you're supporting an American made product that has ground breaking tech (to pcp's) for similar price. Their support is hands down one of the best I've seen and they have presence on this very forum.

N/A  Doubting myself

No doubt here! PCP, SSP, MSP, Springer, ...do them all - regularly!

I've collected a variety of airguns for specific applications but have a preference for PCPs, guess that comes from my powder burner days.

I thoroughly enjoy plinking with my R7 and the FWB 124 is still my favorite walkabout rifle but, IMHO, a 30fpe .22 caliber PCP is the best all around versatile airgun for plinking, pesting, target shooting and small game hunting.

How do you know if the spring is broke?
My thing is, I've never taken a springer apart and am afraid I'd mess it up to where it wouldn't shoot again.
It can be hard to tell if a spring is broken. Depending on where a spring breaks you may have slack once the barrel breaks. They usually break a few coils up from the trigger end and that usually leaves enough preload not to get that slack. Another indication is a crunch noise towards the end of the cocking stroke. Broken Weihrauch springs are pretty common when shot regularly. It can be hard to tell if they're broke without a chronograph and records keeping. Typically a rifle will start grouping poorly and have wider extreme spreads in velocity. I've taken apart rifles that were operating relatively well with broken that had no noticeable indication of a broken spring.

A 50 is a buzzy rifle without a kit. A beautiful rifle with one. It might be worth having a kit and piston seal put in even if the spring is fine.

How to fill a PCP Airgun

The 3 most common ways to fill a PCP airgun are:
  1. From a hand pump
  2. From a SCBA or Carbon Fiber tank (that has been filled at either a: Scuba shop, Air Pro shop, Fire Dept, or from a personal HPA compressor)
  3. Directly from a HPA compressor
