This was my first piston grip and i bloody love it

Seems to be the original Weihrauch silencer for the HW77/97 models you can get in the shops, but you can use an adaptor screw to use any silencer on the HW97k. I use my K3 neo silencer from my Hämmerli/Umarex AirMagnum 850 2 on the HW97k , no problems and decent noise reduction.

Hi mate, No issues though with a loose barrel? Would like to know? Thanks.

@@MrJames19676 I think I know what you mean, the "suppressor" shroud rattles a little against the inner (true) barrel, the picatinny bracket is also a little flakey but honestly the accuracy is pretty good up to about 15 metres, there is a video on here somewhere where a guy mounts the sights directly onto the suppressor shroud, just to be clear this will never be a match pistol, but as a plinker it's spot on and with the longer barrel the power increase is really noticeable, probably okay for some light ratting

@@vobchopper Thanks for replying mate. My inna barrel rattles slightly as well. Have looked on forums and have found that this has been a problem for quite a few people. I'm pretty good at problem solving with stuff so will have tinker with them both and see what I can come up with. You take care mate. 🙂👍

@@MrJames19676 maybe some camo tape around the barrel before you put the silencer on would help.

@@OffGridMadMan Hi mate, Thanks for getting back to me and thanks for your advice. Solved the problem with the inner barrel being slightly wobbly. Took the slide off and put a little epoxy resin where it was wobbling slightly and now it doesn't budge a mm! Really do like this gun. And it's the 8th one to added to my ever increasing collection.

Mine shoots just as well if not better than my hw100. But at further distances the hw100 out shoots it

Hi Steve. How hard is it to pump up a PCP please? Thanks MMMD

@@MudMaxMetalDetecting If it’s a gx40 or similar, a couple of minutes from 100-220 bar. You need a bit of strength, and it takes a little bit of puff, but nothing to write home about. Check out aar on air when he compares cheap pump vs hill pump. A guy does it for time, so is puffed out, but you’ll see it’s not too bad. More hassle carrying round a cylinder imo.

@@stevenjarrett Thanks buddy. Someone has also told me that if you shoot only 40 shots with Gamo GX40/Phox etc then a top up is pretty easy because you're not running it down. In other words little and more often is easier?

@@MudMaxMetalDetecting not overly, it’s always the last pumps at the higher pressure that are hardest. I get around 70 to 80 shots depending on if I’m working on tight groups or just plinking cans etc, where the accuracy isn’t such an issue.

Hi leftymadrid... did u find out which pellets suited it best??... I got a Hw97k few weeks back and have tried Jsb 8.4 and heavies... any other recommendations?

@@aidy8093 there are a ton of pellets out there, but I pretty much think the 8.44gr & 10.34gr from JSB are the most accurate. Though I have tried the RWS super field, and the H&N field target trophy and they seem to do every well too!

H & n field trophy all the way
