I just got back from an Iguana Hunt in South East Florida, in the Canals just below Fort Lauderdale. I booked the hunt with the Python Cowboy's Outfit. Mike and Otto were booked up thru Sept so we got, Sammy and Matt and the new dog, Phoenix. Phoenix is a 13 month old German Wirehaired Pointer...

I hear what you are saying but up until I got my First HW35 in 1978 my primary Squirrel hunting Rifle was my Mauser ES340 B .22 made in 1929. I paid $50 for it and traded in my Rem 514 for $15. This was in 1968, and it is my most prized possession. I added a Weaver K4 in 1976 on an Anschutz...

I have never done this in my 45 years of shooting airguns. All mine are HW's with Auto Safeties. I have never seen one Beartrap. Heard of it, but never seen it. Obviously something wrong with the guns, maybe somebody doing some Trigger Adjustments they shouldn't have.? I also use Pellet Pens...

And yet where else are you going to see accuracy like that and longevity of decades with little more than some oil applied once in a while? HW guns are Quality Rifles on par with any Generic Firearm out there. You might think they are high priced but show me a Decent .22LR that is capable of...

OK I know something about this? I use the "Artillery Hold" to Sight In my Springers. I have a 6x6 that is 2 feet long sitting on the end of my Reloading Bench. It is inline with the guns and the target in my shop. I have a Bath Towel on top of it and the guns (HW35's 77 and R1) easily slide...

Yes, the whole reason for the 16" bbls on the HW35 EB (Export Beeman) was to increase velocity. And Beeman himself requested it. I never realized that mine had a shorter barrel until I got my HW35E about 10 years ago. I didn't even notice it then until the two guns were sat side by side. I did...

I have never heard of a R1/HW 80 with a 11.8" bbl? How big are your arms? Cuz they are gonna have to be pretty big to cock that thing? My R1 has the 500MM barrel 19.685" and I have to cock it with my Right Arm because my Left Arm that I normally use, isn't strong enough to do it more than once...

They reserve the good wood for the best guns IE HW 35's HW55's etc. Keep in mind HW35's have been in continuous production since 1951 so they should get preference. My My Beeman R1/HW 80 has nice looking wood but it isn't walnut. Randy

That is a very nice looking HW35 ! You seldom see that much "Fiddleback" on a stock unless its on a Kentucky Rifle and they did it by wrapping the stock with rolled wool yarn and lighting it on fire. You got a winner and that Diopter Rear Sight only adds to it. Do make sure you save the Open...

So we can agree,,, to agree! Randy

Bear: the Alternate Path is to Wax it and then not ding it up. Careful Handling of Guns, especially nice ones, is something that should be taught early on. One of the places gooning happens is "going in and out of safes" and is called "Safe Rash." So knowing that you need to pay Extra Attention...

I had only seen the first pic of the gun and it appeared to have a flat finish like it was oiled once. I finally saw the pics of the gun out in the sun and there is definitely some gloss. Probably Urethane. I have used the Min Wax Helmsman Urethane on several guns, and it is the easiest...

Thanks for the reply I kind of understand it now, but really need to play with one to fully get how it works. Randy

Wow that was fast, is Auto Answering of some Frequently Asked Questions an automatic function of this site? Randy

OK, I have a Question. Does the HW55's barrel have a ball detent that it locks into???, And then the lever locks it even further? I have never seen one in person? Randy

When did Weihrauch change to the new style fore end.? Both my HW 35E and 35EB have the earlier style fore end with the grooves. Neither has any Droop. Both guns were made in 1977-8 and he EB was picked out back when Beeman went to Germany and hand selected the guns he was going to import. My...

OP: You need to accumulate this set of Screw Driver bits From Brownell's I has virtually every size known in teh gun world. and it is a First Rate Kit. If you are going to work on guns of any type You need this as a primary set of tools. I've had mine for 30 years the price has gone up a bit...

I live in CA and we don't have seasons on Squirrels, but we don't have the kinds of Squirrels you guys have back East. In my neighborhood we have 2 kinds Tree Squirrels and Ground Squirrels. The Tree Squirrels are the Red ones and are off limits as they are my Wife's Pets and she feeds them...

Looking forward to a trip to Florida to see my Bro and to go hunting with the Python Cowboy and Otto. I bought My Avenger .25 specifically to do this. Randy
