New Hw97 Blackline

[meg1 55]

I'm not much off a air gun fanatic more off a ferreting/lurcher man, but do enjoy a bay walking the woods and hedgerows with one off my 2 guns hw100 and rapped17,i converted to them from springers years ago about 10 or more, I recently bought a HW 97 blackline stainless in 22 really to introduce my son from a junior gun, I completely forgot the joy and fun and simplicity and capability off a good springer I'm converted back it's now my favourite bit of kit.

Since no one wants to comment on your post Meg i will mate

 

the 97 is one of the best money can buy as far as springers go there a top class rifle

 

the only down side is the wait there a heavy bit of kit

 

get it polished and tune,d you will not regret it i can tell you

 

the silver and nickel one is going to be my next one but im going to make it all silver IE,,,,scopes and barrel wait ,,,,mounts....all ready got the mounts off a good friend off here .

 

Once that has all been done im going to fit the action into a custom sporter stock if you think it looks good in the black synthetic then you should see the silver action in a wood sporter stock there just stunning in wood

 

Any way welcome back to the springer world and enjoy mate enjoy

Very nice rifles - I keep looking at a blue laminate version at the gun shop

 

But, for feck sake don't tell Mac that I said that

I'm just waiting on a service kit from sfs, can't wait to give it a real good tune up and see the difference

I've got a Sandwell Field Sports tuning kit fitted to my HW97K and it's a beauty to shoot with. Just a standard HW97 .177cal. in the factory Bavarian sporter stock but what a hunting rifle! It'll whack a rabbit out clean at some impressive ranges.

Can't fault these guns or these kits really.

 

All the best.

Hi Simon, it was though your right up on the HW tune up you had done, and seeing si and Davy's guns in action, that inspired me to go with the sfs kit,

Thanks for sharing your knowledge, Tom
