    Weihrauch 97k wood is a disappointment

    Darkhorse196, I went to the site you suggested and you are correct. There is some gorgeous wood in their gallery and some awesome craftsmanship in the shaping. Thank you Darkhorse196. BTW, your username reminds me of my old cavalry unit The Blackhorse Squadron. Any connection?

    Weihrauch 97k wood is a disappointment

    Greenarrow asked “Why did you buy a HW97 anyway?” Pretty simple, all of my prior spring airguns have been break barrels, in both .22 and .177. My current, now retired break barrel is a Marksman 55. It was getting tired (like me) and has become an inconsistent shooter, so I began researching a...

    Weihrauch 97k wood is a disappointment

    i recently received a new 97k from Krale. Humph! After scope mounting I found the barrel to be mis-aligned to the point my new Leopold scope, ran out of elevation adjustment to compensate for the mis-alignment at a mere 60 feet. This is of course not an uncommon problem with airguns and firearms...

    HW97K .22 - many questions

    How do you like the feel of the stock? Do you find the cheek rest sticks out a bit far making scope/eye alignment less automatic? Also, do you find the pistol grip a bit larger than it needs to be? I ask these questions because having just received a new HW97K from Krale, I am not delighted with...
