Cracking collection. I'm green, stuck in the Scottish fiasco. I won't tell you everything I had to surrender ( it'd make you weep ) you couldn't sell for any decent price 'cause of the flooded market. Should have advertised months before in the magazines. Had a HW 95 in .22 with the longer barrel and muzzle weight. That was my nostalgic gun. Lovely shooting rifle!
A great video of a lovely Weihrauch collection. After watching your videos , i have an HW90k on back order and managed to get a Theoben evolution in mint condition for very little money. The green laminate stock will fit your 97 as a straight swap. Thanks for this video and happy shooting.
I to have the HW90, and it's my only gun. .20 Caliber, shooting JSB 13.73gr at 815 fps or 20fpe. Open sight verson, 19" barrel. Scope is a Sightron mounted on a sportsmatch one piece, fully adjustable mount. It's the best break barrel out there imo.
The HW77 looks great with the green laminate stock. Its a shame the newer versions have the cutout on the stock, it does look awful. I might have to source a second hand one to get the old style stock as I was planning to get one soon.
Check out kit pongo the hogman in Darlington for a stock for your Hw97, I have the blue laminate in 22 and it’s an awesome rifle and bought it from a friend at a very very good price indeed at only six months old and I knew the gun from new but I didn’t want to damage that stock and I knew that kit pongo had some second hand stocks in and I bought a 97 stock in mint condition for £60 and I’ve just looked and he still has some various ones in stock so it maybe worth a look if your interested buddy. I have the 99s in 22 and it’s my go too rifle for the garden for when the odd rat decides to rock up where I feed the birds and it’s a little cracker and hits the mark every time. Oh and my pro sport, what a rifle that is! I picked it up last Monday and it’s unbelievable, how smooth are they to shoot and that trigger is on another level and accuracy it’s in pcp territory, at 35 yards I’m getting groups less than a 5p, I’m so pleased I’ve finally got one, I’m a lefty so it cost me more and yes they are expensive but what a rifle mate, your videos made me finally take the plunge so thank you.
Wow, that's a nice collection, I've got one that you haven't and that'd the 95, you've got 4 I haven't though😢, would love a 77 or 97 one day with a laminate stock, got the 99 and 95 both in 22. Both different and both great guns.
Thanks for another nice video. 97 and 77 stocks are a straight swap. The comb is a little lower on the green laminate than the blue laminate. You might find a slip on comb riser helps eye alignment. Beartooth make a neoprene slip on one that is a decent colour match
the stock on the original 35e was my fav with the 22 inch barrel dark walnut miss that gun wich i owned in early eighties realy enjoy your vids mate cheers
I do agree with you that the Weihrauch models actually very good quality . I own a HW44 myself, but one thing I have against them is they instal a tamper proof mechanism in it. I cannot see why they should restruct me as owner of the gun from tuning it to my satisfaction.
Hi Paul, Thank you for another great video. I love the Weihraurch's, too. I'd love to hunt more with my 80 and 97K. The problems are, their weights, the noise of the shots, the cocking lever noises and routing around for your next pellet. The pcp's are much lighter, no recoil and their magazines and cocking levers are just so handy and silent in comparison. With a heavy heart, it's always the pcp's that win the day with me, Air Arms and BSA. I find it extremely satisfying to be accurate with a springer, much more challenging to shoot than a pcp. I have made a carrying shoulder strap for my springers, out of an adapted SA80 British Army rifle sling. It works very well for me. The problem is with the springers, there's nowhere under the fore end to attach the sling to, because of the cocking lever cut out. I won't attach the sling to the cocking lever or gun barrel, I don't agree with that, at all. Best wishes, Ian.
@fieldsportcymru4636 Hi Paul, Thank you for your reply. Using your HW90, maybe good training for your up and coming HW80K? I've been looking at the 90K for a while, much encouraged by your review and enthusiasm. I love the connection with Theoben and how they worked together with Weihraurch. All the ingredients for super, super kit. Just a little nervy of air pressure leaks. That said, there's a saying that haunts me out of JDJ Braithwaite's book, The Airgunners Companion. It reads, Beware of the hunter with only one gun! This means that if you only have one gun, you pick that same gun up every time andl learn exactly its ranges, and how it shoots. If you have a cupboard full, by the time you've finished with one, you've forgotten how all the others shoot! Having never been allowed air rifles in my youth, I now have the ones I dreamed of. I've made little individual cards detailing how they shoot. Ideally, though, I'd just have one, though I adore them all and own them for a specific reason. Best wishes, Paul.
Missing out,99 & 57 are amazing. As an older man, don’t want to mall the extra weight around. I have the 99 , 57, 95, 98, 77,97. At 12 ft pound, my 57 in .177 is easy on the body and as accurate as the others. Try one👍🏻 10:10
Have to agree with you on the stock cutout. The 99S is the worst - I don't like the cheek rest and I don't like the severe cutout below. Makes one think that it was damaged and the damaged portion had to scooped out to salvage it, leaving it with a disfigured body, but otherwise alive 😄
I’m starting to get a collection now🤦🏼 I didn’t set out to but I think Im addicted 😂 I’ve just bought today the same hw90 model you have off Guntrader. Think I had a bargain I’m well happy. I have the gun and scopes ( bushnell trophy x30) and one piece sports match mounts. Great set up. Only trouble is I have 3 guns now. But I’ve just ordered a 6 gun gun rack. Would be rude not to fill it🤷♂️. I’m thinking about a 95 next👍
I have a bit of a collection too... they say the first step is to admit you do in fact have a, well, not addiction, not a problem but... no, actually I do have good reasons for having multiple spring rifles which effectively do the same thing and for having the same model of rifle in different calibres with different, interchangeable stocks. It's important!
Very nice collection, I have them all except the HW90 (coming soon). I agree that the cut-outs on the new stocks are hideous, what were they thinking? You stroke those guns like a soft-skinned young woman, hahaha. Thanks for the video.
in the uk and germany its in output not a great difference if you buy a full size or a smaller gun ,due the output restriction , a standard hw 80 /90 is 30 joule .
Hi another brilliant interesting video. I know you're 9o is 22 what about your others hunting ones let us have a video even if the swap of stocks doesn't work. Thanks again alan
@@Steven-jn2cw Not hold sinsitive. Easy to cock. Quiet. Enough power for Starlings. Good iron sights. Excellent trigger. Lightweight. Easy to load. Shoot all day for cheap with 177 pellets. No sore shoulder later. No need to pump it up. No air leaks. Low price for what you get.
Nice rifles, Not a patch on my Hatsan 900x with unparalleled turkish quality though 😂, Joking aside, Looking to buy my first Weihrauch Soon, I only target shoot at about 8 mtrs so im not worried about power, What would be a good first one? HW95K looks nice.
@@fieldsportcymru4636 Thanks, I might even choose the HW99S Because I really do fancy a HW45 black star but the buggers are so expensive, Have a great day pal.
Got to say my Mk1 HW80 is superb, my Mk2 HW77 k is sublime…. BUT! My Mk2 TX200 full length is by far a better gun, nicer, smoother, and more accurate, also way more pleasant to look at,
Yes, I agree. I have HW97 in .22 and the TX 200 in .177. Both are brilliant rifles, but the TX is a lot more expensive, especially in Walnut. Nice to Own, and shoot though. 😊
@@fieldsportcymru4636 that's the boy, an 80 is different league to the 95K which is neither here nor there. Returned my 95K for a 98 which is properly balanced. Use it for targets, and my 80 and 99 for hunting.
Please i need litle help ,i live in the tovn but I have yard for practising cca.20-30meaters and i hawe ranch wher i can goo all off . Most important thing is that air rifle is not crazy loud i like WH 77 cos its hawe normal sights and additional optics so i wud goo wit here.

@@fieldsportcymru4636 if i wanted to get one, would i just be thinking if i want iron sights like 77 opposed to none on 97 is it basically that? I think 77 also has a tad bit longer barrel too? Does that make one more accurate than another? I like them both, just dont know which to buy in .22
I've got a 77 on back order, my gun guy told me that a 77 stock will fit a 97 but the 97 won't fit on a 77, I dunno if that's true or because they only had 97 in stock, I wanted open sights but I liked the blue stock more
What a lovely collection. Thanks for sharing. Love the look of the HW90.
