    Sportswaffen Schneider...

    ...Is it still safe to order through them?
    Finally want to pick up a HW30s and they look like the best option.

    I ordered a HW80 barrel from them early last year. I received it ok but it took around 3 or 4 months to arrive. If it’s your first order with them you will need to send ‘proof of age’ e.g a scanned copy of your driving licence, they keep that on record for any subsequent orders. They do not provide updates on status of order even if you e-mail them (it’s their policy).

    My barrel arrived well packed and in good order, maybe they were out of stock for a while on my particular order. They are cheaper than anywhere else I could find.

    I've ordered from them before, just didn't know if anything had changed over the last year or so.

    Mmm, not sure as my order was delivered around 7 months ago. I haven’t heard anything negative in the meantime though.

    What do you mean by "still safe" ??
    They're a well established dealer.

    or is this just some non existent "Brexit" scare

    More concerned about the ever-changing winds regarding import, and the whims and fancies of our wonderful Customs and Excise agency.
    I've been out of the loop a few months, and things can turn on a penny when it comes to posting and import.

    Good to know it's still a safe option.

    Though I may ask around here first, see if anyone is willing to part with their pretty little HW30s.

    Had a Diana 35 anniversary off them back in November. All easy and very fast- problem free?

    Surely the 30s is a sub-6 rifle anyway no?

    depending on calibre, could be 7 or so...
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    I find them very good. Competitive pricing and good customer service. Happy to speak English if needed.
    I have an air rifle being delivered from them today actually.

    I'm honestly not that fussed about the difference between 5 and 7 FPE, going to be using it as a short range target rifle and plinker with a williams peep sight. I'll be opening it up straight away to deburr and relube so I can always whack a washer or two in there if I think it needs it.



    Incidentally has anyone used the dedicated HW moddy that slips over the foresight?
