It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got a Spring
Yes, thats plausable, gas rams could be made by other parties right enough !Originally Posted by bighit
Weihrauch would be making their own I would assume .Any one could make one its just machined parts and seals. Not the sealed ram like the conversion kits .
stripped one here https://www.airrifle.co.za/threads/47205-HW90-Issues
Did the HW 90 have "Theoben" stamped on the breech block side or have I maybe seen that on Theoben TB versions ?
“An airgun or two”………

only the Theoben ones . I think it said HW90TB. had a look on google but can find any that say it . one on free ad's just now
.Edit
Extra hole in the breech block was for the FAC version of the HW90. It had a different piston and longer cocking link from what i'm lead to believe .

My regular 90 has the stamped on the block.
The (30 year ?) gas ram patent expired a while ago, so anyone can make 'em now - which is probably why Gamo, Benjamin, Crosman and everyone else is doing so...
Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

I read on here from Ben Taylor that they did that to got to fac levels and it was posted here. I queried it with weihrauch who then told me to read a page in the manual on how to get it to fac and it only said to pump more air in.
I then told them what Ben said here and they then asked for the serial number of the rifle.
I told them it was just a general question and they have not replied.
Is there different barrels on newer ones that only have the one hole and to get to say 20ftlbs is just a case of pumping it up
Where as the older one as you say is a longer stroke ?
It would be good to settle this .
