    Lightweight cylinder HW 100 carbine recommendation

    I am planning to replace the original cylinder of my HW100KT. Looking for an affordable lightweight tube.

    - A+M cylinder, well known, no valve fitted keeping the tube pressurized when unscrewed, bit more expensive
    - Fenton cylinder 283266679414 which weighs only 224 g and has valve
    - Rat Works cylinder 323597515671, 400 g with valve

    My favorite is Fenton, lowest price and lowest weight. Anyone has experience with these 3 models?

    Don’t invest into big mods of an old gun, buy a different caliber a kozak or taipan instead. Will bring you more joy!

    Have a look at hw100tuning.co.uk
    Their titanium cylinder is the one to have. Either with or without the optional reg.
    Stronger and lighter than aluminium and without the need for inspection every 20 mins to check its not going to kill you ��
    Advantage is it also retains the factory look and fits stocks like it should.

    Regards,

    Just had a look on their web page and they've sold out of everything. I think there's a waiting list for cylinders, although I could be wrong.

    I have the A&M cylinders two of them in fact and they have been ok .
    This year one started leaking so sent it off to A&M to sort out , when it came back still leaking ,off it went again then get a phone call saying the tube had split due to over filling ,Which never happened on my part ,but A&M are good and sent me a brand new cylinder back free of charge
