Walther terrus (carbine)

[Josh95]

Well after putting two tins of pellets through the Walther terrus , Iv got to say it's the best springer Iv owned so far , the trigger is brilliant when you've reduced the huge first stage , and the accuracy is unbelievable , the other day I screwed a silencer on and was surprised at how much of a difference it made , having no twang or loud noises from the piston etc , the loudest thing was the pellet hitting the spinner , it gave me an idea to shorten the gun a little , so this afternoon Iv shortened and re crowned the barrel , so when I fit the new adaptor and silencer its fit snug in a bag , the gun if anything feels slightly better to hold , accuracy test will be tmorow (hopefully)

So I gues the point is if anyone was thinking of a terrus i highly recommend them and I don't think you'll be disappointed !

did you check to see if it was chocked before you shortened it?

[rabbitwrecker]

Just hope that you haven't lost any of that 'unbelievable accuracy'.....

[Josh95]

I hope not ! , last one I did with the help from lads on here went really well and it improved the accuracy , if this one stayed the same then il be happy , and I certanly did check if it was choked , I did the tried and tested cleaning rod and pellet test (multiple times ) lol

I will update on the accuracy test hopefully good results , I wish I new how to add a picture to a post , so I can post before and after group pics.

Mmm your more of a gambler than me. Hope all is well. If it was shooting accurately, personally I would of left it alone, but thats me
I must get one of these Walthers, which one ? That's the question

i would have left it too! just harder to cock with a short barrel.be interested to see if its still accurate.

Get one of each, Dave!

The LGV/U shoot lovely.

But I have a feeling that, with your undoubted love of the 99, you would probably end up selling the heavier guns and keep the 'ickle Terrus!!

[Josh95]

I do hope the accuracy stays the same too lol , but Iv got to say if you are thinking of a Walther , give the terrus a goo , I think if you pick one up in the shop it'll not be going back on the rack ! It'll be in the car with you on the way home

[Josh95]

It was a hard decision I will admit , don't get me wrong I just sort of fell in love with the fact that it was so much quieter with the mod on , and I didnt want to have to take it of/on when taking it in/out the bag , other wise I wouldn't of touched it , hopefully il get a few shots of tomorrow so il report back with , good news hopefully , or asking where to source a new barrel/breech

To be honest, I'd have brought a longer gun bag - especially when the rifle is so accurate to start with. Also, fitting a mod with an adaptor is poor second to a threaded barrel...

[Josh95]

I thought about that matey , but using the gun would be a pain with it being 1044mm to start with , especially when shooting in tight spaces e.t.c , if it was purely a plinking gun I doubt I'd of bothered

Obviously, you've never experienced the joys of hunting with an HW35E (with it's 22" barrel).....

What power ar hw 35s , out of interest ? Lol , I saw one in the shop a few weeks ago looked lovely

Hi there, the Hw35's are full UK legal limit rifles, they have the same cylinder diameter as the powerhouse Hw 80 but have a much shorter stroke making them far more suited to the UK 12ft/lbs limit...

As elewis411 says, the modern HW35 is capable of full-power performance. However, the HW35E that I'm familiar with is an old (1974) model with a leather piston washer and runs a shade under 10 ft/lbs - average for the marque back then, but more than capable of dispatching quarry humanely (which it still does)...
