    Unless your name's Mr Gaylord, making the HW95 a 95mm stroke!
    Don't try to make the Weihrauch model numbers MEAN something, that way madness lies ...

    I'll tell ya this much - a while ago, when I was alive, I had a MK1 80 (30mm) and a MK1 77K (25mm).

    Both .22 cal, both doing 11.5 FPE, both freshly lubed and running fresh HW mainsprings. Shooting them both off-hand, via their iron sights.

    Given that they're both around the same weight, by the numbers, the '77 should have been head & shoulders a lot nicer to shoot - yeah?

    To be honest - there was very little in it... the '80 had a little bit more felt recoil. But that was it.
