Out of curiosity, what do you think Weihrauch would have done if they had built the 'HW Mercury ' ?

Weihrauch would find it impossible to build a Mercury. While I like their engineering, they’ve never made a graceful rifle, with the possible exception of the late model HW30S.

Graceful, swoops lines, massive mainspring preload, heavy piston with ‘O’ ring, hazardous and tricky disassembly, chunky but sweet barrel-latch, basic but serviceable trigger.. it’s about as far away from a Weihrauch as a Relum Tornado.

Yep.
