    I bought mine secondhand off "wild dogman" a few years back.It is in .22 with Custom Skull grips and i use RWS Hobby pellets and it shoots like a dream.Ok it recoils as every spring gun does but it really is a joy to shoot!!
    I have way too many guns but i love them all.

    Hey Leo, you sure seem to have found the right pistol for yourself.

    The HW45 is an excellent pistol. I have one 'in the silver' made in the 80's, it's a beaut'.

    Love shooting it. http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...IMG_0938-1.jpg
    Good luck, Phil

    Wow Phil G ,your HW45 looks LOVELY

    Did it come like that or has all the paint been removed ?

    Could I ever get my HW45 black star chromed dipped,plated ? If I did would it all go back together ok ?

    What metal is my HW45 made from ?

    Yes Phil G I love the look of your gun,I like it better than my black star.

    what would the metal be like underneath my black star if I strip all the black paint off,will it be all shiny like Phil's one ?

    Would I mess the gun up if I was to try & strip it all off ?
