    HW/Weihrauch HW30s - How Much Maintenance?

    I have two air rifles: a 43 year old Crosman 766 American Classic. I bought it new and it's never needed anything except 3 drops of light machine oil on the tiny felt patch that is easily accessible. Recently I bought a HW30s. I read on this forum 30 to 45 minutes daily and although I started...

    Other Dieseling ?

    New HW30s at UPS and being delivered today. (From Krale). I have read a lot here at Airgun Nation and I see "Dieseling" mentioned. Some say it's no problem and others say to clean the barrel before I shoot it the first time. If it occurs is it a puff of white smoke coming out of the muzzle as...

    Other New Member & New To Air Guns: Help!

    New - first post. 77 yr old in good health. I pulled a 43 yr old Crosman 766 American Classic out of the closet and started shooting (mostly plinking) about two weeks ago. I loved it so I went on line to learn what I could about Air Guns in 2024. I read and learned a lot but I still have lots...
