Weihrauch hw97k

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Air rifle from Weihrauch available in 0.177 and 0.22 calibres. This rifle is a shortened version of the HW77 and incorporates a silencer in the rifle which is of limited but useful effect with a spring air rifle since a large proportion of the noise when firing is caused by the spring releasing it's energy and not the air which escapes the muzzle. The rifle is very well made although at 4.2kG is heavy to hold and fire. There are numerous tuning options available which increase power and are reported to improve the smoothness of the firing cycle. This rifle is based on the HW77 which has received wide acclaim within the slightly antiquated realm of spring air rifles.
