    Finished homemade stock photos

    Lovely work. Did you make the cheek rising hardware, and forearm lowering hardware too?

    HW/Weihrauch Hw95s versus Hw98 - pretending to spend money

    Thanks guys. I have no illusions about winning HFT even if I had the perfect gun I don’t have the mind to be a serious competitor! I have been going across the border and enjoying the good company of other shooters (mostly PCPs) in Minnesota at the MAFTA club. Some day I might get a TX200 or...

    HW/Weihrauch Hw95s versus Hw98 - pretending to spend money

    I have a HW50s (the misses), and a R9 (the mistress), both in .177. I have no need for another gun, but I have a wandering eye and from time to time like to contemplate another break barrel. I have been slowly getting the hang of shooting my Hw50s, and in the winter I plan to make a new stock...

    JW, thanks - do you use a Bisley or something else?

    Light direction and ranging accuracy

    You remind me of a couple of questions and thoughts i have about eyecups. It seems like it would be one more useful reference point to help in speedy repetitive cheek weld acquisition. Yet, if it were such an advantage why doesn’t everyone have one? Is there a downs(eye)d to them I haven’t...

    Please Explain

    Costco is good value for eyeglasses. Additionally, they keep your prescription and order online. So if you have a repair/replacement need anywhere in the country they can help you.

    Diana How long can a springer be left cocked before spring degradation?

    I forget whose Weihrauchcollection was on display over the winter. I noticed that the break barrels were stored open. I wasn’t sure why, but I’ve taken to doing that. I just have a HW50s and a r9, but I can see at a glance that they’re empty and safe. On reflection, I was wondering if they...

    FWB 603 value

    Once you have 10 posts (to help reduce the likelihood that you’re a bot or a charlatan) you can sell it on the classified section here. There are a lot of scammers around. Anything that you can do to show you’re not one will reduce the wariness that people naturally have. If you contribute to...

    Parallax Wheel

    Cavedweller, he sent one after asking me the dimensions and it didn’t fit. I didn’t want to be a pain-in-the-butt and hence the reason I went with the parm lid.

    Parallax Wheel

    I actually misspoke. My set up was from Eric at Spokewerks. I’ve corrected my post. I realized that when I saw Cavedwellers photo. FYI, I like the scope so much I’ve bought a second one for my Beeman R9. Cavedwellers excellent reviews of a wide range of scopes helped me in this decision.

    Parallax Wheel

    I have been happy with mine. What complicates things for range wheels on this scope is that the range ring is right next to the illumination switch ring and one shouldn’t interfere with the other. The magnetic feature is flawless, and well thought out. I did have an issue with a machined piece...

    HW/Weihrauch Frankenrauch

    Where did you find the .20 barrel? Was it part of some other gun originally, or did you special order it from somewhere?

    Coolest Target for the backyard?

    I am really enjoying this Air Venturi rat-on-a-stick. I added it to an order of pellets I bought from Airgun Depot on a whim. What I like about it is the lack of a cord to unwind, and that if I want to change the paddle size, the discs to reduce the target size are attached behind the face...

    Sportsmatch mount advice R9 (HW95) and Athlon Heras 6-24x56

    I have another Athlon Heras 6-24x56 coming for my R9. I currently have one on my HW50s. I am starting to shoot Hunter Field Target at the moment. My HW50s is at about 11 ft/pounds and my R9 is just shy of 15. Both are .177. I bought Sportsmatch 30 mm High (HT036C) for the HW50s. Because...

    John, I’d like to see a photo of the whole gun, what is it and what scope do you have on it. Please.

    HW/Weihrauch Skirtless piston

    That piston’s so pretty it’s a shame to hide it in a gun.
