    HW44 Bipod ?

    In researching bipods I’m seeing them at every price point, various mounting options, etc…. Since the lion share of bipods are used for rifles I haven’t read anything that suggests that there are units that are better suited for mounting on a pistol. Any suggestions for a bipod that would be...

    HW/Weihrauch # of Mags per fill ??

    Asking HW44 shooters. On average, how many magazines do you shoot before you air up Because of diminished accuracy? I don’t see any difference after 3 and maybe half way thru #4. After that I can heat the change in velocity and figure it’s time.

    HW/Weihrauch Loading HW44 ?

    I recently got an HW44 pistol. I got it because I was so Impressed with the HW100. Aside from the magazine capacity (10 vs 14) the mechanism appears to be the same. Loading the magazine into the pistol however seems to be more of a hassle. IIs anyone else experiencing this issue and is there a...

    Is it me? Or does it not work?

    Just got this Vevor pump. shot the pistol into the yellow zone to test the pump. After 100 pumps nothing changes on the gun or pump gauge. Pump looks to be undamaged and In perfect condition. Am I missing something?

    Hand pumps

    So i’m sold on the idea of a hand pump as a backup means to air up. Any suggestions on a decent pump? I’ve been dealing with Airguns of Arizona but they only offer one pump. They sell high end as well as lower priced merchandise. I figured its a decent pump but not sure if $200 is overkill or...

    HW44 & hand pump

    I have a tank for airing up my HW100 and HW44. I was thinking of a manual pump for the pistol for when I travel and don’t want to deal with schleping a scuba tank around. Ive read that it is like an Olympic event to use a manual pump. I’ve also read that it’s a good option for a pistol. Any...

    HW/Weihrauch HW 44 Laser?

    So I decided to go with a Red Dot instead of a scope on my newly purchased HW44. I never had a Laser on any of my guns but thought it might be fun to have one on the bottom rail. Anyone else have that setup? Thoughts?

    Mounted Camera curiosity?

    What’s the story with cameras mounted on your guns? Nothing is cooler than watching a pellet blow stuff up in slow motion. is anyone familiar with the setup? Im guessing that it’s a scope type lens that somehow attaches to the barrel via picinany/weaver rail. Any input or suggestions? Thanks

    Air Venturi Scuba tank fullness?

    So I havnt been keeping track of the number of refills I did on my WH 100, and I haven’t had the tank refilled since new. A rookie question but how do I test to know how full it is? Its a new “Air Venturi” tank with a gauge but I’m clueless about what readings indicate. Not wanting to run empty...

    HW/Weihrauch Pistol scope??

    HW/Weihrauch HW44 Scope??

    Researching for the right scope for an HW44. This will be my first air pistol. I have an HW100 with a Hawke scope that I’m very happy with. The HW100 is a pretty heavy but the weight isn’t as critical as it will be on a pistol. Any input on this would be appreciated. It will be strictly for...

    HW/Weihrauch HW 44?

    Kind of new to Airguns. I recently purchased a co2 Beretta pistol, which I am in the process of returning. My only other gun is an HW100. Im looking at pistols but not quite ready to spend the $$$ on an HW44. That was until I shot a pistol that had none of the precision that I became accustomed...

    Ever get a cleaning wad stuck in the barrel???

    First off it didn’t happen BUT…. First time cleaning the HW100, I must say I was a little nervous. As per a few utube videos I threaded fishing string down the barrel and tied on a cleaning wad (w/bore cleaning solution) and pulled it through. I repeated this a few times and it did job. ...

    Gun cylinder pressure release??

    I apologize for the rookie questions but are you supposed to unscrew the cylinder from the gun to relieve the pressure when it’s not in regular use?? And if so what’s considered regular use ? Thanks

    74 cu/ft tank ??

    Got the news that my back ordered tank will be shipped next week. called the dive shop to learn that they won’t fill a tank to 4500 psi even if it’s rated for it. (No expectation why/we just don’t do it). Being new to the PCP world I’m curious about how many rifle refills 4500 psi would give...

    Mod edit: moved to correct forum So I’m surfing Utube and I see this guy washing and lubing his pellets. They I see another video of the same thing 🙄 Have these guys lost their minds or is this a Thing?. On another note, I shot my HW-100 for the first time and I must say it’s a very...
