    HW35E- what's so special?

    Genuine question- I have had an 80, a 97 and a 30 so I know about the Rekord trigger, the Weihrauch build quality etc, but I think there is something else about the 35E which sets it apart, and I know there are a few fans on here. What is it about this model? might have to get one and find out!

    funny you should mention this. i have just spotted an old 80s advert for hw rifles [presumably taken from a mag] and i noticed the 35 export [im assuming thats the 'e'] was the same price at the 77 and more expencive than the 80 etc
    so what is so special about em ?

    Appalling cynic, immune to aesthetics, philistine!

    The Export handles really well, has a lovely slender elegant pistol grip (unlike the Standard 35), is easy to cock thanks to the long barrel and is just a lovely thing to look at and shoot.

    Not all of them have 22" barrels, but they should!

    I agree in as much as I bet the new ones with the short barrels are just as shitty as the old ones (or more shitty).
