    I've just "discovered" Weihrauch rifles and my first one was a .22 HW30S bought on a whim late last year. It's quickly become the first rifle I reach for when I go for a quick plink in the garden. It's just such an easy rifle to shoot accurately. In fact, it's so accurate, I'm not bothered at all that it only seems to do about 7 ft/lb. Soon after that I got an old, 1980s vintage HW30 in .177, then a .22 HW50, and just got a 99s in .177 from a chap advertising on here. I never much cared for the larger HWs, such as the 35, 80, and even the 77; but having said that, I'm now looking for a 55 with aperture sights. I think, once I get that I'll call my Weirauch collection done.
    The South of England has 2 good things, the M1 and the A1. Both will take you to Yorkshire.

    No, why should you. Way to much talk about power, it's airguns for xxx sake.

    Deluxe?

    They leave the breech block showing and put some chequering on the stock.

    My arse.

    I agree. The breech block should remain covered and a bit of chequering does not make a rifle 'delux'. I wonder if they put the interchangeable front sight on it? That would make it a bit delux.

    In truth, a 'delux' ought to have a walnut stock. If Webley could do that then Weihrauch can. A heavy barrel would be nice too.
