N/A Another new shooter needs help

How long you been waiting? Just ordered the HW 70 black arrow last week feels like 3-6 months wait on average these days. Upside it gives me plenty of time to pay off the CC purchase.
I ordered two on 9/19/22, the HW97K, and a HW30s Deluxe, both in .20cal. The HW30 came in about five days. Still looking forward to getting the 97K. It would nice if it came for Christmas.

They claim they escaped but end up dragging what the escaped from right along with them and destroy your way of life and try to convert your way to the mess they claimed they ran away from cause it's better (??). Please just move back go away we don't really want you here .. lol


From my all these adjustable triggers you find really don't do much adjusting ... Unless you mod them. LoL.
So, did I say something that isn't actually reality, most makers claim that their triggers are adjustable, so far I've only found three, Weirauch's Record trigger, Hatsan's Quattro, trigger, and Diana's T-06 trigger, I'm not a fan of PCP air guns, so I'm not speaking for them ?

Yup, GAMO's triggers are a good example of the company's disinformation, they should be claiming that they sell non adjustable/adjustable triggers.
I do like my GAMO wood stocked first gen. Swarm Bone Collector for several reasons, but as of today I don't see myself buying another GAMO air rifle.

I like that for a marketing ploy

Our 2 stage fully non-adjustable trigger..lol

Ya, I got a Gamo that's pretty good. one of my favs.. ol' squirrel woods thug..
 
I would hope this is true. If it were true, why are states like Arizona and Texas now purple from mass infiltration?
How do you know it's from mass infiltration? Could it be that there now exists a whole new voter base that has grown up on a steady diet of liberal programing from popular and social media? Could it be that the vast majority of legal immigrants vote with the other party? Or that the US born children of those who stole into the country years ago are now old enough to vote and vote overwhelmingly blue?

Come on, man, I just read that you moved out of a tyrannical state to one that values freedom. Why can't you give others the same credit you give yourself?

Are you being deliberately obtuse?

My advice to you is to practice critical thinking skills.

This is the scope that comes with the HW95 combo. My friend has had this scope for two or three years and it has been trouble free and holds zero. Good glass and looks sharp at six power. Has mil dots. The regular HW95 is $500. The Field Pro costs $600. The scope costs $249 off the shelf. Seems like a good deal to me. Weihrauch has good glass.

Well, then they must be doing the consumer a solid then, and that is a rarity. Generally, there is no such thing as a free lunch...at least when it comes to optics.

yep had the same thing happen to oregon. It got ruined. They would always complain about things yet want the same things brought in that they left. Its absurd.

Im more than ready to disappear into a holler and be left alone.

Oh really? What part of the state are you in? Me and the GF moved here from Texas last year, and we both like it much more

I know all the internet sellers CYA by saying you have to know your states laws and then have a whole page where they can't ship to. Or after I send them a personal e-mail with my name and address all over it, they send me another e-mail that they will send me my air rifle to my front door.

No thanks getting a possible 3 year felony sentence for accepting out of state firearms!

I just received an HW95 and scope combo yesterday. It's virtually the same as the BSA airgun scopes. It's got the same screw on end caps, same tall turrets as they used to have, same parallax adjustment that's labeled 7.5 on the low end but adjusts down even further than that. They seem to have used a bit less of that rubberized coating however and it now has a mil dot reticle. I'd bet money it's out of the same factory though.

Those BSA scopes are nothing special, but the parallax does adjust to very close range, the turrets have a very wide range of adjustment and I've never had one crap out on me, even after using it on a Saiga .308. I think they run about $60-70 for a 2-7x, so a 3-9x with a mildot would probably be about $75. Figure another $20 for rings of this quality, then you have the barrel end thingy. It all adds up to around $100. No screaming deal there, but not a ripoff either.

I grew up halfway between crater lake and medford. Its a gorgeous state but totally ruined. No way I could ever go
That's almost exactly where I live. So you don't live here anymore but know so much about it still? And you know all the people in Klamath County? Hate to tell you bro, it's not totally ruined, and a better state than texas. So how long ago did you move away? And what supposedly ruined it? You can PM if you want

I can probably take a picture of the Weihrauch and a BSA side by side sometime today. I have both and they're obviously of the same design. I'm guessing that neither company actually makes the scopes and they're just contracted from some Chinese manufacturer. It also could be that Weihrauch is using the same manufacturer but paying for a higher grade of glass and lens coatings.

Nope between medford and crater lake is the west side of the cascades not the east. I lived in the pretty side of the state in the mountains not the desert.

Weihrauch or Air Arms, you’ll be glad you spent your money on quality. If you expect tight groups, you will need to pick a quality springer.

It took a while to process the cost of a airgun to a firearm, but after owning a Gamo and Hatsan, the TX200 delivered on the accuracy I expected. It takes some time to shoot a springer consistently, but it’s easier to do with a HW or AA. Airguns sell at less volume and have more parts to manufacture, so the cost is higher.

For reference, I need a rifle more accurate than me, all of my firearms are sub moa, most under 1/2 with pricey glass. I’m no stranger to high cost but somehow spending that on airguns seems silly, but worth not being frustrated by poor performance.
 
So side by side it is clear there are some differences between the two. The top model is a BSA 2-7x32 airgun scope from approximately 20 years ago. It’s just a cheap scope, but I wish I had bought a few more back in the day. As you can see it’s currently mounted on a Hatsan 135 and is holding up fine.
Below is the Weihrauch 3-9x40 that comes with the HW95 combo. The turret caps are interchangeable. The end cap is interchangeable on the eyepiece. The objectives are of different diameters. The turrets are very similar as is the parallax adjustment. I think the differences can be chalked up to being different models and manufactured 20 years apart.
