Krale HW50 in stock

[sticman77]

After shipping it came to $320.

About $100 cheaper than getting it from PA or AGD, and $70 cheaper than AOA.

Bonus is that I got a shipping notification less than 12 hours after, while i've experienced a 4-7 day wait for the above to ship my orders.



I sold my .177 action and picked up a .22, for a hopeful softer report for the backyard. i do not like these with the weihrauch moderator... defeats the purpose of the contact 50s!

Krale’s prices are hard to beat. And you’re right about the shipping. The 3 times I’ve ordered from them, my rifles were delivered to New York within 48hours from time of purchase. 


And absolutely love my .22 HW50, although mine does have the moderator. Enjoy your new rifle!

Look forward to your report !

i'm in idaho, so i may get it before XMas if things happen right.

and will definitely report back

I also took advantage of the HW50’s being in stock at Krale. One week from the Netherlands to North Florida, at a great price. I like the updated stock and yes, the slip on mod makes it looooong.

Krale is awesome to deal with. Had my hw77 in 3 days.

i prefer the new slim stock as well... but i have one of the old minneli stocks i purchased from grackleblast i plan on throwing on. it feels nicer, but maybe i'm just being placebo'd by the big name brand 



and holy forking shirt balls!!! i ordered this on the 19th to Idaho. its the 22nd and its out for delivery... looks like i'll be having a fun evening after work!!!

 

[sticman77]

...it already arrived. the new slim stocks are also now minelli stocks! looks like they switched from whatever other company they had making them for a couple years. i'll get to play wtih it after work

LOL I also took advantage of Krale having the HW 50. I ordered one last week and took only 3 days to get to central Florida..Ordered it in .22 but won't be able to shoot it till after X-mas. Wife says it goes under the tree. Oh well Anyhow if your on the fence about ordering definetely order from Krale. Fast shipping and good prices.

I tried to order one from Krale this morning, but never got past the shipping address! The scroll where the country should be entered had no America or United States listed. I wrestled with that for the better part of an hour before ordering from Pyramid.

i just tested it out. you need to make sure you choose United States as the country before you get to checkout. in the upper right. you should still be able to cancel your pyramid order, and order from here, saving you $100

200 or so pellets in. this .22 definitely has less of a pop than the .177. came shooting right at 11fpe with 14.3 CPHP.

thought it would be interesting to compare stock variations.

first photo: top - new minelli stock, bottom - old minelli stock

second photo: the stock that came with my .177, when they were having another company making the stocks. does anyone know if they've switched back to minelli completely?

Thanks, sticman77.

Is this a good air rifle? New and uneducated guy so, don't flame me to bad if that is a dumb question. LOL! Just learning and have a Hatsan 95 Vortex QE on the way and wondering if I did ok?

the 95 is a nice middle of the pack hatsan with a beautiful stock. if you are handy or decent at tinkering, it will be a fun to get to know.

i am not the handiest, and did not enjoy my hatsans. there are a LOT of people here and on gta who love their hatsans, and enjoy tinkering to get them shooting exactly how they want.

i honestly would not have appreciated the hw50s that i've had as much if i didnt go crosman/hatsan first. that being said... if you are able to cancel/return the order, i personally would save up for an hw instead. you'll hear "buy once cry once" pretty often, and sometimes i wished i had listened to people earlier (with springers and pcps)

 

[PelletPushingPaisano]

Well, since I'm just starting out in the air gun field, I'll get to know my Hatsan I guess. It's supposed to be here tomorrow so, to late to cancel. I might try and save up for something better down the road but, need to make sure I'm going to stick with this before dropping lots of duckets!

 

[sticman77]

not a bad approach. if something goes wrong while tinkering, its much less aggravating if you're learning on a mid tiered springer!

A good turorial on these guns from a known tuner, may come in handy.

great video soloshot!

i also used this video to learn the break down: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rCKzgY_-x4



this little rifle wouldn't stop dieseling, after breaking it down there was a ridiculous amount of grease in there, and my piston is already looking a little mangled.... vortek seal is on the way.

moving forward i think i'm breaking down my hw's upon arrival to degrease!
