I picked this up a couple years ago as a basket case. Was completely disassembled with a broken spring on American Airguns classified. Yeah I took a chance and it worked out! Lol
Have it kinda soft tuned at 14.5fpe with FTT 11.42 grain. Thing is a laser!
Added front screw cups and a straight setback Rowan engineering trigger I had laying around. Have it listed in the HW database and was made in 1996 so it's in the second year of production for the R9/HW95! Anyone have one older?

Serial# placement from barrel to comp tube transition time. Are they all Huntington Beach?

1994 to 2009 was the Huntington Beach era. Not sure about when they moved the serial numbers around. It did move to the side of the barrel somewhere in there. Maybe moved to the comp tube after Beeman sold out in 2009?

I liked when they used the R10 deluxe stock. First year or so. Yes, R10 stocks fit.
This one is the next Luxus model. I don't remember the year. I'd have to get it out and look

I almost bought one of those deluxe stocks for mine a while back. I think the length of pull is a bit longer too!

I like the original R9 Deluxe stock with a pistol grip cap
The “not really a Goudy ” stock

Man there missing the boat not bringing that stock back or at least something very similar. Even the new walnut doesn't hold a candle to that one!
