Very true, unfortunately. An extremely knowledgeable friend told me that Ultra Lube actually IS SM 50, but it's also hard to find these days.
SM 50 is actually oxygenated castor oil with moly powder - great stuff.

Such an easy spring rifle to shoot well.
Do not neglect to register your HW rifles on the Weihrauch serial number database. The more info available the better!

I remember that 35L of Gaines. I believe he passed it on to K Lentz. Agree it’s the nicest one I’ve ever seen. I’m just happy to have one that gets mentioned with it. LolTo me the "Bayern" HW 35L is one of the loveliest air rifles of all time. And the best stock ever put on the 35 - the rounded fore end was made as narrow as possible, neatly masking the bulk of the 35's fat receiver tube; and it has perfect balance, making this heavy rifle seem much lighter than it really is.
My late mentor Professor Gaines Blackwell had a 35L with the interesting serial 350035 (!), which had absolutely THE most stunning piece of tiger-stripe walnut I've ever seen on a Weihrauch. I suspect it was a presentation piece for a special client or retiring employee, or some such. So Matt's is "only" the SECOND most amazing, LOL...!!!
