It's very early, I think the front sight is original, I guess "V" means rifled barrel, and Mike will tell us more.

HW/Weihrauch New HW30 Jr.
- Thread starter bustachip
- Start date
Make what ever comments you like, just stay off my grass.The pessimism here is palatable.... I think that maybe we're those "grumpy old men" that we couldn't stand when we were younger....

The long lop on the weihrauchs might be “a feature, not a bug. “
Had a fwb with a very adjustable trigger position. I set it very far out (just to experiment), kinda like a HW where the end of the index finger sorta rests on the side of the blade prior to any pull. Well, that actually felt the best.
Can’t explain why. Would have to experiment again to gather my thoughts.

That’s about the size of the Slavia I had when I was a kid. I’m 69 now. That little rifle was very accurate but a little anemic. I think this HW 30 Jr Could be a game changer

I don't have big hands and I have never noticed any reach problem with the Weihrauch trigger?

Don't hold back. I want opinions. I don't come here to have my ego stroked. Either way. Speak upThe pessimism here is palatable.... I think that maybe we're those "grumpy old men" that we couldn't stand when we were younger....
I think that stock is hideous. And the reach to the trigger is ridiculous for any youth or ladies gun.
What are you thinking, Weirdrock?

I don’t like the stock at all.
I have a set back trigger for my 95, but it’s not needed after replacing the stock with a more vertical grip.
The grip angle on this new one will make for more reach as AGR mentioned.

Me too. The Slavia 618 was my first real gun (still have and shoot it) back in the 60's. This HW30 reminds me of it.

Glad to see some effort from HW to tap into a market with very few choices today. I think that the gun will sell well.
Things never heard while teaching my kids to shoot with an R7: "he dad, the trigger pull is kinda long on this thing."
Maybe true, but the vast majority of potential buyers won't notice or care.

Who has a pre order? Oh yea my first thought was to be little again. Just think of the lucky little buggers that will come into this.

Looks like nice gun for kids - my children are grown up, if they were little still I’d buy them one. Man I’d love to have one in my youth.
Have few HW30’s and Beeman R7’s - & HW25L- all are family favorites when everyone shoots together- accurate easy on the arm , shoot all day guns.

I glad the R&D department at Weihrauch is adding to their line of springers instead of dropping one.

Never noticed or thought about this until reading about it here. I have no reach problems with any of my HW’s. And neither did my kids when they would shoot them. Must have some very short fingered folks on here.
