mark williams 7,550 Posted November 23, 2016 Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 I was pointed to the HW 95 " Luxus" by Tony Wall from Sandwell Field Sports. His words were, " You`ll find it very hard indeed to better a HW 95 Luxus, for the money involved". I`ve still to sit down and do my homework on my options but whilst on the subject " Luxus" ? Is there a standard model 95 and then a Luxus model or is this simply the HW 95 rifle lads ? Anyways a HW 95 is something I`ll check out along with the Walther nudge from Charlie ( C) and others to look at ( no rush) but I think it will be a no messing about springer.( new). Oops - nearly forgot " Compliments Si" - lovely bit of shooting there . My neck`s fecking killing me now with those pictures, " Tw@t" atb 1 Quote Link to post

Spot on out of the box but after some shots through it , it's starts to twang . Had mine tuned by Dave Price (Wonkey Donkey) short stroked , piston buttoned ,one of Dave's spring kits in and trigger redone . I have a job to put it down and IMO it's better than the SFS imp 3 Quote Link to post
