LOL I was feeling cranky that day I put them photos up of me bottle feeding my HW45 :,what ever will I do next ?

Your right I do love the gun a bit too much,but I can't help it can I ,that's just the way it is.

Hi bcham,Your HW45 looks very nice mate with them grips ,what's it like to shoot ? ,Also how do you find the webley alecto ? ,what do you like better out of the 2 guns ? ,do you find the alecto grip bulky in your hand or not.

Well I have not been up too much,have not shot my HW for a few days,been letting my bad hand have a good old rest ,I have been doing some work to my kids crosman 1377.I fitted new steel breech kit to both guns now & put in top transfer port seals.we have got some extra fps now,just telling by shooting at the old tin.they put a much bigger dent in the old tins now.nearly going all the way though .will get the power checked out on them tomorrow up the shop before letting the kids use them,but they should still be under the 6 power limit because all I have done was put in the extra seals.Oh & I put a little clear fish tank sealent inbetween the transfer port & barrel for a little extra anti air leak.Both guns now pass the rizla & baby powered check

i like them both as much as each other the hw45 looks and feels better but the alecto shoots with more power and accuaracy,i took the palm shelf of as my hand was too big for the grip,now it feels fine esecially with the red sight,i cant miss.if i had to get rid of one it would be an hard decision.

So is the Alecto more powerful than the 45 then mate? I nearly bought one a while back, they seem pretty good.

Hi Leo,

Just been reading your thread, and as has been said above - Refreshing to see your enthusiasm, and having fun with it!

As you're clearly a fan of the HW - Here's some pics of my last '45 and the butt stock I made for it (from a bit of steel and an old Rapid stock that was snapped at the pistol grip):

http://s662.beta.photobucket.com/use...hw45%20carbine

It was the earlier model with plain black sights and without the 'user warnings' printed on. Also had a nice Pachmayer signature series wrap-around rubber grip (quite a necessity, as the sharp-chequred factory walnut grips made the hand sore).

It's since been sold, but reading all this makes me regret that a bit!

Mine was .177 cal. But I couldn't shoot it half as well as you do! And like you, I much prefered the firing cycle at 'full cock'.

With your performance, I think you could do well at match pistol shooting ...

Best wishes

well it has more power than my last hw45,with the valve mod,it will shoot thru a fraybentos tin both sides,with thunderbolt pellets .and there thicker than bean tins,my old hw45 just dented one side.but was low on power,
this one i havent tested yet as its barreless, as im still awaiting a 177 barrel i did a swap with my .20 cal one,
