Zapp Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Chaps I've come into posession of a HW80K and was wondering if its possible to tell the age of it from the serial number. Are there any HW experts on here who could help? Really excited to have it - everyone has that one gun they wish they hadnt sold and mine was an early 90s HW80K in .177. This one is a .22, but that's besides the point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aga man Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Perhaps an email to Hull cartridge could give you the answer if all else fails? http://www.hullcartridge.co.uk/contact.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Posted January 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Nice one, thank you. I'll bear that in mind if I have no luck otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Posted January 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Aha, Google to the rescue. Looks like it's ~1994, so not dissimilar to the one I had before in terms of vintage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
