Walther LVG .177 - not what I was expecting!

[StellaArtois Sr]

I have 4 LGVs and after adjusting the factory trigger they are superb.

Only one of them had a slight boing so I put a sleeve in that, and although mine are incredibly quiet from the start, I put a specially made moderator on my hunting gun which has made it ultra quiet, to the point people don't belive it's a springer.

Having spent more money on other well known makes, the little work done on the Walthers is worth every penny. As for muzzle flip, I have had none what so ever. All four of them are absolutely pinpoint accurate, smooth, quiet and a joy to shoot.

I am not sure what yours is doing to the breach seals but I have never changed them in the few years I have had them let alone the few months you have had yours. That to me needs further investigation.

Along with the 2 LGU's they are wonderful rifles and more people should give them a try. They are as accurate as any of my Weihrauchs, Air Arms and Dianas and they are superbly accurate.

A short eye relief scope is best avoided on a springer even how smooth the Walther is, at least you found out before you got Snipers eye.

I stripped mine just to see how easy it was to do (very). Best internal finish of any new air rifle I've seen so far.
