Weihrauch cheque there QC lol. They dont care...... they keep producing guns (hw99) with well known faults for years(galling of the cylinder). Glad you got it sorted matey, but really the shop should not be pulling a new gun apart to fettle it.....think i would of insisted on another new rifle as a replacement. I have a 95 that is about 6 year old, and is sweet as a nut, never had the slightest problem with it...touch wood. Enjoy...by the way give falcon accuracy plus pellets a try my 95 loves em
