Bought a Springer

Congratulations, you have made IMO an excellent purchase. I own a 22 cal Hw50S and I’m very impressed by it, as someone on this forum once said the Hw50 is the goldilocks of the Weihrauch line.

Congratulations on your purchase. I have never owned an HW50 but I'm a huge Weihrauch fan. I've been shooting the HW95. Weihrauch is very high quality regardless of which model you buy. What caliber did you get yours in?
let us know how it shoots when you get it.

….and by mid week, next week you’ll be having a blast. You made a great choice.

Be careful, by the time you know it you will be hiding springers from your wife any place you don’t think she will look! It’s like potatoes chips, can’t have just one

She may like the HW30 even better. Just a tad smaller but a pleasure to shoot.

I believe that you have made a great choice. I have enjoyed my HW95L and my wife likes plinking with this rifle off our back deck. Weihrauch are excellent pellet rifles.

Nice looking rifle!

After much over-analyzing of all airguns, I ordered a springer... A Weihrauch HW50 S is on her way from the Nederlands towards Alabama.

I've watched every YouTube review vid of every model of PCP, springer and other varieties over the last month. I am relieved to have finally pulled the trigger.

Looking forward to a review and some pictures!

Congratulations on a nice choice. I have a few Weihrauchs. They're all great but if were only allowed one it'd be my 177 Hw50. It's just a great balance of power, size and weight.

Good call.

Good call. Its hard to say what the PERFECT springer is but if I had to make a list of my favorites to shoot, the 50S would definitely be on it.

Good choice. I have one in .20 caliber, also have the hw30s deluxe in .177. Enjoy yourselves!

Learned this trick decades ago from an old timer. With two gun cases in hand, kiss the wife goodbye while going to the range. She doesn’t know one is empty. But not for long.

I think the HW50S in .177 is the perfect airgun, so I have two of them.
Try AA 7.87 pellets - my preferred.

Great choice and congrats. My hw50s in .177 is my go to gun for plinking, target shooting and hunting out to 40 yards. My favorite of the HW lineup.

Nice guns. Congrats ITACUD and I’m sure you can’t wait for it to arrive! “After over analyzing...” — me, too! I eventually got a HW30S from Krale myself.

I’ve since eyed the HW50S in .22 for small pests but am not sure it would be worth the purported higher cocking effort (relative to my HW30S). I like easy and light, something to shoot all day.

We’d love to see pictures, and I’d love to hear your thoughts after you’ve had a chance to put your new HW50S through its paces.
