You're welcome.
"I don't care about lefties." That's an outrageous discriminatory remark , fortunately God's a leftie and she was laughing at you rubbing your screen*.
The use of the plural is most disturbing IJ.

For those with no love for the design of the 35, fair enough, everyone's entitled to an opinion.
However, surely its importance can't be argued? A true game changer which showed how most manufacturer's offerings of the time came up short. It was the benchmark against which other spring guns were measured and aided the development of subsequent springers . We're all better off for the HW35's existence.

I think it would be more apt to say Record Trigger. At least they are found on rifles I like.
I just prefer The Original 45 or FWB Sport or even HW77. It took the HW35 years and years to get out of the farm yard and even then it needed to be fettled to do that. The Original 45 forced forward an upgrade to the HW35 giving the HW80 and the superb HW77. The Sport was a sporting rifle unlike the HW35 which was a HW55 with some changes. The HW55 was a bell target rifle.
The HW35 is a fine rifle of it time. A true springer and well made. An interesting rifle to collect. I think BSF's have it too. Sadly don't do enough for me, and there are other rifles I like more. Love the trigger though.
