Now that is pretty!....I've been looking at those lately....a fine gun no doubt.If I was in the market for another springer,this one would be at the top of my list...that,and an AA TX200 of course.
P.A. is really good about stuff...so if it stated that you were supposed to get rings,then by all means call them,and they should send em out to you. |

thanks for the kind words. not only do they state rings included, but they give a detailed discription as well. i hope they make good so i dont have to make another purchase. fingers crossed.  |

If you have contacted them about the rings, then a set of rings are probably already on the way to you ..PA will make it right....  |

I've only fondled one. damn, a real euro springer or a new 6.8spc upper
for my AR. decisions decisions.
to make that comparison tells you how jealous I am.
I like that "right above the dinner table" rack.
My wife veto's that everytime I try.
enjoy. |

Your right Walter...you were supposed to get rings...P.A. will hook you up.
I couldn't help but notice your guns sister...the one with the blue laminate stock.... It would be a REALLY tough choice for me....like em both.... |

i dont think i could do over the dinning room. this is over a window in my home office so when i am blogging on the computer i can stare at it! and it lets me see the back yard for squirrel invaders too. it cost more than all my mil-surp firearms i have at the moment. im addicted to them as well. i havnt jumped into the "black" rifles yet. i chose the regular over the blue laminate because i like the more buisness look over the showy flash. just my taste i guess. its so friggin cold and windy here in MD. now that i dont think i would be getting great groups anyway. im dying to get her scoped and break her in though. . i will definately post my shooting experience here. thanks guys. walt. P.S. i told the wife this rifle is way to nice to hang in the garage with my crossman! she was cool with it! thats love. the wife and the 97k!  |

Sweet....I've been thinking of a way to present this situation to my wife.....it may just work....
Even though I only own Crosman/Benjamin rigs at the moment,I figure I can convince her that it's practice for the high end air guns in the future...  |

my thoughts exactly! the thought of spending that much money and hanging it in a damp,drafty and sometimes slightly leaky garage was a deal breaker. once she knew what it cost she can see the value in caring for it properly. plus i can stare at it as i write this.  |

Nothing feels good like a new rifle. Very good choice!
If you're gonna take the stock off, though, could you take a look at the welding? This has been something of an issue lately with Weihrauch and I hope to see them improved. |

Forgot to say, the bad welding on the rifles that I saw didn't really influence the performance that much, but in comparison to some others it was pretty darn ugly. It'll be easily recognized even for an untrained eye (such as mine) as a bad weld. Was blamed on "Monday morning" productions.
The part I'm talking about is the part that is welded to the lower side of the action where it holds the swing arm and the screws for the stock. I think they're sort of a combination part but I'm not to sure since it's been maybe 2 years since I last saw a naked HW97k.  |
