    Absolutely brilliant and thank you for posting; very enlightening.

    Many interesting processes shown.

    I could watch this again and again.

    That machine screwing on the end blocks (HW77?) was both eye-opening and very interesting.

    Having read Terry's and Phill's articles in the magazines, to be able to see this video is a fantastic compliment to those articles.

    Thanks, Terry.


    Mods / admin - how about this going into the Useful Tips Section for an invaluable resource?


    Although it may come as a shock to some (), I love Weihrauchs and would love to be able to visit the factory.

    Thanks again to all involved.

    While some may well be tradition I suspect the limited production numbers also mean automation is simply never going to be cost efficient.

    Just thought I'd Boing this up, folks.

    Hard to know how many people have watched the video as there have been so few replies, but I really think this is a "must see".

    Having watched it several times, I realize what value for money their products represent.

    Thank you very interesting & certainly a more in depth tour than the Daystate one.
    Im still left with this thought.
    Why do we still read reports on fora re- rifles going back to HC for remedial`s / new barrels ect if the QA is so so good

    Where's the special department where they mix the swarf with the grease and butcher the springs

    That'll get Tony's back up

    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in

    I’m probably wrong but I understood that the spring issueswere down to HC, as Weihrauch just fitted the export spring and HC “adjusted”it for UK power levels.
    Don’t confuse luck with ability.
