I'm looking for a lightweight carbine breakbarrel for light pesting in very dense vegetation. I'd much prefer that that stock be synthetic or very durable. I've been looking into the Weirauch HW 30, HW50, Beeman R7 and the RWS 34 pro compact. The HW 30 seems nice, but has no synthetic option. The HW 50 seems great too, but is a little longer and heavier. The R7 looks to be in between the two, but again, has no synthetic option. The RWS 34 is heavier, longer and probably has a little too much power for me. I also can't find any specs on how long it is and what it weighs without the muzzlebreak, scope and rings. If anyone owns these guns or has another recommendation, please let me know what you think! Thanks.

How about a used HW30 that is already a bit scuffed up and taking it in the brush is not a big deal. Try putting an ad WTB and see if you get a bite. I have seen them in synthetic, it’s just a matter of finding one.

My first choice is....RWS34 and then R7. These are Ford vs Chevy choices. You will be delighted with either choice.

DonC Do you know the length and weight of the 34 pro compact without the muzzlebreak and scope? I have a .22 34 and it's great, but a bit large and I'd like .177

You started two threads with the same question. See my answer in the other thread linked below:

FYI: They do make a synthetic HW30S.
