Weihrauch HW30S

The Weihrauch HW30S air rifle is, without question, the finest light powered sporting air rifle available anywhere. We guarantee that once you have one in your hands you will agree and won't want to put the air rifle down. At just a shade over 6 pounds, the HW30S is easy to pack around in the field with ease. The gun still packs plenty of punch with velocities reaching 700 fps in the .177 caliber version. The HW30S is extremely accurate and has a very pleasant, smooth firing action. In fact, the HW30S is a favored rifle among the Beeman employees.

The HW30S rifle features a unique double jointed cocking lever which eliminates the customary long slot under the forearm of break-barrel air rifles. This provides a more comfortable grip and a better sling mounting point on the forearm.

Pay attention to the details on this air rifle: Crisp, multi-lever Rekord trigger with full adjustability. Finest non-drying breech and piston seals. Click micrometer rear sight, and scope grooves cut directly into the receiver for added stability. Beautiful precision cast trigger guard. And the satin finish on the hardwood stock resists minor scratches. Simply put, there are few guns made with all the features, style and grace of the HW30S.

Few spring guns can boast of a list of attributes that include gentle recoil, quiet noise level, smooth action and incredible accuracy. Most spring airguns have one or two of those attributes, but seldom all of them.

So, what does the HW30S bring to the airgun marketplace and why it doesn't get written about more often? Well, most new airgunners are looking for high velocity and "power" levels. These are not attributes or strong points of the HW30S. So more attention is paid to the big "howitzers" available on the airgun scene.

However, after shooting the high powered air rifles for awhile, many airgunners gravitate toward a gun that can be used strictly for plinking. A gun that is just plain fun to shoot and is not needed for heavy duty pest control or hunting purposes. And that certainly fits the profile of a HW30S.

One can shoot this gun all day long without tiring from the recoil, weight or cocking effort. So by all means, look at the velocity results.... then forget them! That's right.... forget them! This is a gun that should be shot simply for pure pleasure. And if you're looking for a real challenge, just go out anywhere on the web and try to find a used HW30S. Good luck... nobody gives up his or her HW30S. After all, everyone know a good thing when they see it.
