Anyone got one of the latest versions of the HW35E?
How do they stack up in 22?
I am without a rifle at the moment, and want to buy a break barrel springer in the larger calibre. Doesn't need to be laser accurate - just pleasant to shoot and nice to look at. I'll be using it indoors to knock down spinners. I've had dozens of .177 springers over the years, but prefer 22 these days.
I know I'm in a minority but I do like the old fashioned look of the 35.

I bought this last year from my 'friendly local gun shop'. A limited edition but they have a few blued ones left. Its a .177 (11ft/bs m.e.) and shot smoothly straight out of the box. I stripped it out of curiosity, as you do , I found a nylon/derelin guide tube. The stock came up lovely after a bit of t.l.c.

I was wondering how long it would take you to show us some more of your HW gun porn Mr Jones. It has come up nicely though I must admit. It also shoots rather well if I remember rightly. John has also provided us with a nice hareem of 35's for those of us of this persuasion.
My own 35 Export isnt bad to shoot or look at either for that matter. Do I really need a new one?
Oh, alright then!

If its '35 gun porn' you want hows about this? A 'ball bag' deluxe bought earlier this year from fellow club member Phil. This re-blued by Colin Malloy and tuned by Dave Mercer this classic was for sale at our Adlington Airgun Fair but no-one took bought it because it had the manufacturers brown varnish finish. I bought it for £120 and stripped and re-finished to stock. This was what was under the brown gunk varnish.
