    Hw45 fitting a longer barrel.

    Has anyone fitted a longer barrel to a hw45? I want to put a mod on my hw45 so looking to fit a longer barrel to do this. What barrels will fit? What length did you fit to allow a mod adapter to fit on? Will crosman or air arms barrels fit or is the diameter to big/small? Any advise is much appreciated. This is going to be a close range ratting gun which has a stock fitted already. Chris

    That sounds like a great project. It would reduce the muzzle flip.

    just check the cocking arc / angles first, to make sure you will have clearance... the muzzle must be pretty close to the frame on full cock ?

    the actual barrel swap would be trivial.
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    I have a short mod here jon. More to help the muzzle flip than make it ultra quiet.

    I tapped the muzzle end of an HW45 to take an adapter someone made for me, I think I used a 10mm tap, which screwed into the muzzle with a 1/2" male thread on the other end to take a moderator, and it works fine.
