It's no surprise that the HW35 is still on production after 71 years --- a good design is always a good design.



All the best Mick
That is some testament to a rifle Mick.

The Hw35 that has even been speculated to have been on the drawing board before the second world war.

Details are somewhat vague as to when Weihrauch's did start appearing in the UK and as some of us know, even when they did they got called Werehawks

If by some quantum leap I found myself back in the 1950's.

The first thing would be, a real pint of Ale, second, fish n chips wrapped in newspaper and then a trip to Germany to see what our Germanic cousins would let this old boy take back to blighty.

A Hw50, Falke 80 if I could find one and the third rifle, I don't really have to say it do I ?


All the best
