Walther Parrus

Ian,

I couldn't sleep, so figured I'd try to see what I could find for an aftermarket / upgraded trigger option.. 
No luck though, so unfortunately, I think you're stuck with the OEM plastic one. And you're not the only one.. 
There's a really nice wright-up on the H.A.M. site about your gun, and under the trigger section , the same thing was mentioned.

Years ago, I had a really nice crossbow pistol, and the maker went with a composite trigger.. 
Well, using it in freezing temps, I managed to snap it.. Luckily, I had all of the pieces..

I removed everything, super-glued the trigger back together, then used it to blueprint another.. 
Then proceeded to fab a new one out of metal. It is not hard to do - just a bit time consuming. But a fun little project. 
All can be done using scrap metal or metal [plate steel] sold locally..

Trace the trigger onto some paper - make sure it's exact: All done w/ basic hand-tools too: cut that out, 
transfer it to metal - mark/scribe it, cut it out, drill it out - if needed, then grind, shape, sand, paint/polish..

Over the years, I did a few more - simply because I didn't like certain triggers, and wanted to make some custom ones.. 

Just an option if you feel like doing a bit of tinkering..

 

Sam -

If you take apart the Parrus, does the trigger look like this? Or close to it?

Thanks for the replies guys, I haven't actually gotten the gun yet, But I have been doing some heavy reading and watching videos as I always do before, waiting to receive and after being received any gun I have ever bought. Dirty Dovi, it is already in the back of my mind about replicating a trigger blade for this gun. I am pretty sure the trigger blade that comes stock looks to be screwed to the body of the trigger mech inside. At least that's what it looks like as there is a screw at the top of the trigger blade. The adjustment for pull weight and travel is behind the trigger.I have a small piece of flat aluminum stock that would be perfect for this and it will be easier to work with.



Gonzav71 if IT DOES look like the trigger assembly shown, I will go that route and just replace it . I have ordered from them before for Wiehrauch HW97k parts.

Any progress on this?

After having it for almost a year, the trigger is fine! it's sturdy and feels good. It is wider than the average trigger as well. I have refinished the stock, completely torn down, tuned and rebuilt it. I just bought an air stripper for it as well. Haven't put it on yet though. It's a powerhouse as well and accurate!

What did you do to "tune" it? How did that affect the rifle?

[I gotta ask NL30 ... why the bold, italics and the shopping list of owned guns?]

Probably a cut and paste from another post

I got the synth Parrus recently... can't beat $125! I haven't shot it much yet, but so far, so good....

Those triggers won't work in the Parrus. Those are made for the LGV/LGU. They are different.

still early, might get back to it...

target 1 of the day. eh, close enuff for a $125 gun... still a lotta dead squirrels there.

once it broke 100F temp, i went back inside.

Had a Walther Parrus and Terris.

Both are crude and unworthy of comment by me.

But if I have to comment I say the iron sights are loose and the rifle in both cases whether wood or synthetic is NOT worth the money put toward an HW98 to END IT.

If the 98 is too much for you to buy then get the HW95 in all versions of your choice. The Plain Jane HW95 with cheek stock is the easiest to use without spending a fortune.

If you want the best stop at HW98 and say, "To H*** with the rest."

I dunno, $125 for a magnum b-barrel is hardly "not worth the money".

Had an R9, didn't care for it. That's about as close to an HW I'll likely ever get again.

The best really depends on the individual. I've had "the best" a few times in my life, and it's not always a blessing.


Walther is an Umarex brand, and granted, I've not been the biggest fan of them. 

I'm old and get tired easily. But this Parrus is a 12lb ninja and fits me well. It shoots better than I can. Does at least this good all day long. Me, not so much lol.

everything i shoot seems to be able to at least knock off a squirrel's head at 25-yards.
certainly within a quarter, often within a dime, so not sure i really need a $500+ airgun.



i don't hunt, so i really don't need the power, but i do have this now in case.... lol, well, i can't think of any situation i'd need to kill my own meals.



plenty of real guns in the house should the need arise.



Anyway, very glad you're happy with the HW98. Almost picked that one over the R9, but everyone pushed me (willingly I say) in a direction I soon regretted.



All good now. Unless something breaks, I'm set for a while.

Took the Parrus out again today. Decided to try a 10-dimes sheet. Not bad, seems sighted in, now I'm tired, gonna go dig a ditch or something easier.



Although I appreciate the challenge, the test might lend folks to believe that a cheap gun isn't worth the bother.

I dunno, I figure for most of us, that's close enough? In more capable hands, that would be all braggin' rights.
