I have the exact same 77 as you ,in that colour way too ,it was sold as the HW77 special edition,I have a mate with the blue laminate stock on a 97 as they are nearly identical that’s some sexy looking gun
The last air rifle I owned was a BSA Meteor that had all the accuracy and power of a pea shooter in the hands of an asthmatic. I bought one of these last week and am delighted with it in spite of the fact that my hands aren't quite as steady as they were forty years ago. The only disappointment is that it doesn't come with a bayonet to compensate for my occasional wayward shot.
Ik like the HW77/97 more than any PCP. Simple, reliable, accurate, good looking and timeless. You need just a HW springer and a tin with pellets for whole day fun. Bottles, compressors, hoses, and all other tralala that comes with a PCP makes it a no go for me. Thanks for this video!
Awesome you will fall head over heels for the 77 but be warned you will end up having an affair when you meet the 97 both are gorgeous . Good hunting from Gloucester Massachusetts
My girlfriends dad has a 1984 HW77 in .22 and is still going strong. My gun is a 1997 mk2 TX200 hc in .22 and there is much in them. Both are great guns.
Another great review, thank you. I agree that they’re superb rifles. I have the 97KT and absolutely love it. Keep them coming please Richard, your no nonsense delivery and thorough reviewing style are a breath of fresh air.
HW77 was the first air rifle I owned. purchased in1984. had to give it up in 2005 for reasons that were no fault of the gun, just purchased the model shown in this video forest green laminate HW77K and looking forward to shooting it for the next 20 years or so.
From one Richard to another :-) nice detailed and informative review with much attention to safe handling of an airgun. I have a HW77 in Forest Green laminate FAC in .22cal. Might want to mention that you have pointed several time to the SAFETY catch being located on the breech. I believe the more accurate location is: on top of the 'action' of the airgun. Otherwise very well done.
I came here to learn what I could on this Weihrauch model HW77, I think it's perhaps the best review on this rifle that I have found. Good enough in fact, that I subscribed. I did enjoy the detail you have here. Thanks for this.
Wow. I really enjoyed your video on the hw77. Thank you. I’m in canada and trying to order an hw77k in .177 and a hw80slk in .22. Both full power fac versions. I never thought I’d say this but they are a great value here when I compare prices to a tx200. Theyre beautiful but mucho deniro here. Thanks for confirming my choice! Ill be watching many more of your YouTube films.
I tried the pcp world with an impact m3. Sooo much cost with all the compressors, bottles, etc. i also had a leak and had to send it back on warranty. I sold it after only a few months. Keeping all my weihrauchs and vintage crosman pistols.
Hi Richard, stunning rifle that stock is absolutely gorgeous I'm not sure but I think they call it the forest laminate pattern it's just adorable!. A life time of service right there no doubt, an absolute classic. Atb Dave
