    HW/Weihrauch Weihrauch comb fix.

    Firstly, thank you Maxtrouble for gifting me a Hw30 stock. Now I have a stock that I can "fix" the comb on. My favoite Hw30 is my first. It's a 2015 with the most boring plane jane beech stock Weihrauch has probably ever graced a Hw30 with. This rifle is my all time favorite. I have no idea...

    HW/Weihrauch True Glow Globes on sale

    I hate the way they look, but I love the way they work. I've taken the one I have off several times because they don't look the same quality as the rest of the rifle. Yet it always winds up back on the gun because it works soooooo much better. Yesterday I was enjoying it so much I figured I...

    HW/Weihrauch I should have played the lottery today.

    While sitting on the porch swing with my wife after dinner the wind died to dead calm. I decided to push my luck and grabbed the R1, sat down at my improved table and shot these groups. One is fantastic and most of the rest are pretty darn good. Especially considering its making 20+ FPE with...

    HW/Weihrauch Probably my personal best 25 yard springer group.

    I shot a bunch of rifles (alot) today because the weather is nice. It was calm in the morning and then there was a shifting and gusting light breeze that prevented true testing. All the recent 20 cal chatter brought out my 98. After the second group i dialed 6 clicks right to compensate for the...

    Airgun Shooting bench?

    Because of construction I've been temporarily shooting off a cheap, wobbly, plastic Walmart folding table on my porch and rear deck. With construction done and the table wobbly and sagging I'm ready to make something better. I want something with a smooth top but some grip. Concrete my...

    HW/Weihrauch Hw77 Mk1 done today.

    I finally got to work on my NTM Hw77 Mk1 today. It was a little bit of bear getting the receiver apart. And a giant PITA getting it back together. I did the usual clean out. I slugged the barrel and replaced the crumbly breech seal while it was completely apart. I replaced the piston seal with...

    Beeman Resale value

    I'm taking a poll to help me make a decision. Is an old Beeman R (Weihrauch) worth more with OE parts or tune kits installed?

    Blue Ribbon 66R questions

    I bought an old Beeman Hw77 and it came with a BR 66R scope. I don't understand how to focus it and lock in the adjustment. It seems a stupid design. I go to adjust the focus and the magnification changes. Or vice versa. Is it designed to rotate the entire occular to change the magnification? I...

    HW/Weihrauch Hw95 pellet testing.

    Today it's gorgeous outside so I did some shooting. I started pellet and scew torque testing with my Hw50. Then I broke out my big dog Weihrauch. My Hw95. It was my first Weihrauch. All targets are 5 shots at 25 yards. The numbers are AVG velocity- Extreme spread- Standard deviation...

    Beeman New to me R8 is a keeper.

    Got this R8 (on the right) a few weeks ago. I wasn't sure I'd keep it or not because I didn't realize how heavy they are. Then I liked it less after I shot it. The barrel shot to the right a fair bit, accuracy wasn't great, it was dieseling and the extreme spead was something like 60. Obviously...

    Tuning Springer Bore and strokes.

    I'm always curious about bore and strokes on my Weihrauchs. It gives me an idea of power and build potential. I recently measured a few. These statistics can be hard to find on the net, so I figured I'd post them here for orhers to reference. These are approximates. Probably within 1mm. 25mm...

    HW/Weihrauch The R8 stays.

    Crummy weather and no scope rings has kept me from shooting my new to me R8. Today I mounted a scope and finally got to shoot the rifle. When I first got the rifle I was disappointed in the heft of the rifle. With the scope mounted it balances well enough that it still feels good in hand. Much...

    HW/Weihrauch Rekord trigger adjustments

    I wrote this for another forum this morning. I figured it might be appreciated here as well. There are three adjustments on a Rekord trigger. The first and least known is the metal tab that hangs down from the housing in front of the trigger blade. That's used to adjust first stage travel...

    HW/Weihrauch Here it is. My last airgun came today.

    My new to me R8 came in today. The gun is gorgeous. I've seen new guns come out of the box not this nice. Butt pad doesn't look like it's ever seen a shoulder. Like many old Weihrauchs gun has slight barrel droop and drift. Starboard in this case. Both are unfortunate but fixable. Nothings ever...

    N/A Good Sale on Airmax Springer scopes.

    For the next day and half DVOR has an excellent sale on Hawke Airmax 2-7x32, 3-9x40 and 4-12x40 scopes. I already have an extra 2-7 so I ordered an extra 3-9x40 to have on hand. Prices like these are worth jumping on. This has been a public service announcement. Fwiw I already use a 2-7x32...

    HW/Weihrauch Okay. Now I'm done buying airguns. No. Really I am.

    The fellow I recently bought my 77 from had my last bucket list gun. Feeling very happy with my 77 I had no problems buying another rifle from him. This rifle was just added to my bucket list in the last year. Thanks to the likes of Mike Driskill and others touting the shooting qualities of the...

    HW/Weihrauch Look what UPS just dropped off. A 77 Mk1.

    Last week I posted about a rifle I won on ebay. It was a bit of money for me and I said I was done buying airguns before but BOY am I glad I bid on this. I've always wanted a 77 with the earlier stock. I like the traditional rifle look of the longer 77 with the lower comb stocks. Not only is...
