    Hw30
    Hw80
    Hw95

    The hw100 deserves an honourable mention as it is a superb rifle, but they really are ugly soulless brutes (apologies to all the hw100 fans)

    And the fact that the numbers don't mean a damn thing...

    HW77 - 'The Typewriter'

    HW80 - 'Vindaloo'

    HW50S - 'Audrey'

    The 35 is of course named after the T-34 tank, plus one.

    Neither has the HW25 which is a nice little starter rifle or the very popular HW100.

    Top 3 Weihrauch's

    1 -my modern .22 hw50s - because it's just so easy to be accurate with, 2 - the 19" barreled '77 .22 hw35e-same reason, although totally different firing cycle & mine had an outstanding tiger striped(both sides) stock. 3- the hw80 even though i've never owned one they are built like a tank & good to shoot too. The 50s is the first springer I've never been inside the powerplant of as it shoots sooo well & the 35e had the best fit & finish on it's internals I've ever seen in a hw. All i did was soak the old leather washer in hempseed oil & add a lube sleeve to stop the twang with a couple of slip washers & correct lube. It was still on it's original spring with very little preload, so stripping it didn't require a compressor. One of the few guns I regret selling.....

    57? Fibre-optic sight 45? 22" 35E (that barrel is stupid)? 25?
    Imho, not the HW25, as is fantastic for juniors too small for an HW30, not the HW35 in any derrivative, as was a landmark rifle back in the 1960s -- and still has an array of stalwart devotees to this day -- but as for the HW57? Yep that thing gets my vote. Have had two, one in each main cal, and although I found the .22 to be slightly more acceptable, in essence, found both to be complete and utter total pants.

    Totally agree. The HW25 is a great little rifle that is well under rated. What else is there on the market, available new, that size with such good build quality? An ideal starter rifle until the 'owner' becomes old enough (strong enough) for the superb HW30. Its often over looked by adults who are spoilt for choice.
