Hi,

About 22 years ago my parents bought me a HW80 at .22 as a present (I must have been 16 or 17).

It shot a fair few pellets and I changed to an "Ox" spring (I think, it was a long time ago). Since then I discovered the wonderful world of women and got married. Now my son is 10 I've found the old rifle and have showed him how its shot.

The bloody thing still groups as tight as a 50P at 35 yards! Amazing. Having said that, the pneumatics look like a better bet to me these days. My main hobby is diving so compressed gas isn't much of an issue

Is there anything like a market for these older Weihrachs? I'm fancying a HW100 / Daystate 4 as I ease myself back into the hobby; I'd be tempted to PX the old gun if it's likely to have a value, otherwise I'll just keep it for the lad.

Any advice appreciated.
