    First thought is: why?
    Second thought is that it would be expensive even if it could be done because: new stock needed? Buddy bottle kit needed? Action bit and bobs needed to fasten buddy bottle?
    Third thought: Sell the HW100 and buy a dedicated buddy bottle rifle. It could well work out cheaper.
    Fourth thought: I doubt if it could be done????? and produce a good looking / handling rifle.
    Cheers, Phil

    I'm sure there's somebody selling HW100s that have already been converted to a bottle, I just can't remember where.
    I'll have a look for it after, they looked rather good with a laminate thumb hole stock, I think ;

    I’ve read about people doing this but as others have said I think it would be better selling the hw100 and buying something with a higher shot count out the box.

    I looked into doing it
    £100 Dr Bob buddy bottle adapter
    Then a buddy bottle (£50-150)
    And cut out your stock and make sure you don't mess it up.
    I've seen plenty online, and occasionally they pop up on the bay. I believe someone sold all the bits needed on here within the last 6 months.

    As much as I like HW100's, I have a Mk1, if I wanted a rifle with a bottle instead of a tube I'd get a ready made one, I have a R7 Mk1. Desire maybe inspiration but desperation is the mother on invention. Want a buddy bottle HW ? Walk away or wait for HW to make one for you.

    Thumbs up

    I bought a 3 litre 300 bar bottle to bring with me to the club for refills, I find I can squeeze 6 magazines out of my .22 version. It's a cheap route to go anyway!

    Are you aware that having a reg fitted by rat works could almost double your shot count?

    Thats the route i went down. Ratworks full tune, Tench reg and lighter weight cylinder. Full size rifle, I get at least 180 shots from a 225 bar fill. The rifle can sit for months with zero loss of air.
