@ sunbeam, if you want to try a feinwerkbau 300 i will bring mine in September you are both welcome to a shoot of it to see what you think of em. They aren't full power but they're very accurate I can cock mine with literally one finger and out to 30 yds they are supremely accurate

48 to go, peeps.
THE BOINGER BASH AT QUIGLEY HOLLOW. MAKING GREAT MEMORIES SINCE 15th JUNE, 2013.
NEXT EVENT :- August 3/4, 2024.........BOING!!
A friendly mafia is a superb way to describe it mate. It still amazes me having joined the forum a year ago by chance I have now met some of the best friends a man could ask for. Yesterday I rode down to Devon on the Africa Twin for a few days and if all goes to plan will have a nice catch up with Jamie and Mel later in the week
Nearly time for some 10M air pistol Blatting and practice down the club
BOING and BLATT and up we go on a sunny Sunday morning
ATB, Paul
Always looking for new members at the Swalecliffe and District TSC in sunny Herne Bay http://www.sanddtsc.org.uk/
We've both just got back from Castleton FT Club.
It was said there, old guns are the way to go as the metal, blueing etc are better on old guns.
Is that really the case though?
My TX is 10 weeks old, The main spring was rubbish as it lost 1fp and started to bend up after the first 500 shots. BUT, I fitted the Vortek kit in it anyway (always was going to) and now shes loooovley
Alisha has her eye on an HW97 .177 long with the blue lam stock. I know the HW's need stripping, cleaning, setting and re-lubeing from new and we are going to V-mak or Vortek it anyway and a trigger. After all that work, would it be so bad as a new gun?
Do we need to wait and get prepared to be buried in offers of used guns at the bash?
So old or new ?
I think to be honest the new Weihrauchs are no worse than the old Weihrauchs and this goes for the other makers too. I have new versions of 98, 77, 95 and a couple of 1980’s Hw35’s. I think everything needs fettling to a degree and you should really go with your instincts. The only slight problem I’ve had in recent times was the difficulty in undoing on of the Weihrauchs rear cylinder block but other than that all good
If you try a 2nd hand gun at the bash you know what you are getting. You are prepared to do a lot of things to a new gun which would invalidate the warranty therefore removing a major advantage of a new gun

Can anybody tell me what flavour this Blue Lam HW97 is? It has chequering on it that don't seem to be on the 'normal' Blue Lam HW97.
