    Not much to see - SSP I take it?
    Looks like an extended HW40 or Beeman P17 copy. Longer barrel/frame could make it easier to cock?
    Good deals with these members

    Yes, I thought it looked like competition for the hw45 until I noticed a different picture on the web and it did look like a longer version of the hw40 clone.( and it was ssp)

    The HW40 has a 27 pound cocking effort, and quickly becomes unpleasant to cock.

    This gun is considerably longer than the HW40. So they had a choice of going for more power or lower cocking effort.

    If what the bloke in the video says is true ie. that the cocking effort is about 14 pounds, then they have gone for the second option.

    And, if that is the case, IMO they have made the correct choice. I will certainly consider buying one. I would never buy another HW40.

    Unfortunately it will not have the build quality of the Weihrauch, and we will have to see how long it lasts.
