Seeking an after market tuner for the HW75. Can anyone recommend someone reputable?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!
Does anyone work on the HW75?
- Thread starter maxtrouble
- Start date
No problem, he has worked on 3 FWB guns, one rifle, two pistols ( one is with him as I type this) and a Diana 6 Giss action pistol. All have been good. Usually takes 4-6 weeks after he receives it. His website shows that he works on the HW guns, so should be no problem.

never have i seen someone tune a HW75
but it isn't my money

I have bought 2 Beeman P-1's from Dave at Toys That Shoot Show, he tuned them both. Not sure if he tunes the P-2 / HW75

My HW75 has two cocking strokes. One is easy, like it was not opened far enough or not enough air was taken in. The second one feels normal and has the expected resistance. My shot deviation is all over the place with weighed pellets.
My HW40 is the exact opposite. Same consistent resistance when cocking. Very little deviation with weighed pellets.
I think there is a defective seal or o ring causing theses issues. I plan on sending it to Mr. Slade and have him inspect and reseal the pistol.

The HW75 and 40 are single stroke pneumatics. They take their breath when the pistol is in full open position. If you don't quite achieve full open you'll notice an easier close, and reduced power.
The HW75, being a SSP, doesn't have two cocking stroke's, but the HW45, (P1) is a springer with a half and full cocking modes.
So are you referring to having to multy pump it?

What I am saying is that when I cock the HW75 there are two results. One good and one bad. I want only one consistent result like my HW40 delivers every time it is cocked.

I have trouble with both of mine, if I don't fully open them. Other than that they're great. Let us how your service turns out.

The thing is, if I open the HW75 any more than I already am I would break something! I open it to the obvious stop point, pause and then compress. Sometimes it is good, sometimes it is bad. I want it to always be good. My HW40 out shoots it at twenty yards. Should be the other way around.

Can you hear the air getting sucked in every time you cock it? I know it is obvious on mine.

AN FYI ...
The HW75 ( Beeman P1 ) along with the Old Webley Tempest / Hurricane utilized a solid TEFLON head on the piston. There is no parachute or leather seal present.
To RESIZE the seal these pistols are VERY UNIQUE in that you DRY FIRE THEM REPEATABLY. What this does is the piston impacts comp chamber roof and creates a swelling of the telfon head.
Yea no poop
