I have a lovely HW90 in what to me looks like a CS800 stock. It has a barrel longer than the current carbine with a grub screw attached Theoben Evo silencer (without the Vortex tip - if anyone has one......please!). I cannot for the life of me find a serial number on it, as I had a notion to use the WH database. on the r/h breech block there is 'Weihrauch', then Made in Germany, then Theoben, on the l/h is HW90K with the cal. .177/4.5mm and the two figurative pellets, absolutely nothing on the cylinder! Any thoughts, info welcome. Shoots absolutely beautifully at 11.6 with Webley Mosquito 7.87 grains.

Can be various places if its not an early one then but as hw777 said, Normally in front of the block.
First ones from theoben where on the bottom of the block by the cocking linkage slot,
Next was on the tube itself on the left just beside the hinge bolt,
if it has Hull Cartridge on left side of barrel just in front of the block then the serial number is directly below,
Usually easily legible and well stamped or engraved on all rifles, Replacement barrel wont have a stamp on it as i know Ben changed a few later ones back to the original BSA barrels for customers.. Col.

It's not unusual for some of the HW's springers to have no serial number. Owned a few 80s with none supplied. Have two in my current collection with no serial number and not replaced barrels. I was informed if no serial number then the rifle was either the first of batch produced or the last off the line for that particular production period. Mach 1.5

there was a Theoben hw 90 at one time with a better (walnut) stock I remember seeing them in the 80s yours could be one of those
is this it ?

That’s the length of the barrel but mine has the beefier Theoben moderator on it. Different stock - CS800 style. I’ll get more pics up. There is a slightly different coloured metal ‘band’ around the cylinder just prior to the breech that I’ve not seen on more recent 90s, if that makes sense!
Really appreciate the input and information thanks chaps.
