    HW55T Date of manufacture?

    Evening chaps, I have finally got my hands on a beautiful Weihrauch 55T after 25 years lusting after one, and was hoping somebody would be kind enough to help me date it?

    The serial number is 1058951

    Only had her for 3 1/2 hours and already put half a tin of pellets down my 10 meter range, worth the long wait

    Many thanks for any help!!

    Andy

    What would one have to pay for a nice example of the 55T now ?
    Remember, it is the strongest character that God gives the most challenges.

    I paid £400.00 for mine and its mint, to be honest I would happily have paid considerably more for the conditions it's in
