In for a penny.....
The hw100 is pretty easy to work on to be fair. Resealing everything is a doddle and there's a great guide on the weihrauchs owners forum. Even removing the AT and fitting a new shuttle and hammer spring is even ok. Balancing the hammer spring and reg pressure takes a bit of time and patience but well worth it in the end.
You'll get it all sealed in the end. Beats paying someone else a handful of notes and the more you know the workings of your gun, the better.
Also, whilst you've got it apart, I'd recommend removing all the grease from the hammer and replacing with a light oil for metal moving parts. This can be reapplied every tin of pellets or so to avoid running it dry. The thick factory grease causes temperature inconsistencies.
