NU_KID Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Hey, I recently bought a weihrauch hw97k .177, with AGS 3-9x40 scope, for £350. i was just woundering if the bloke has had me over because he wasnt the most genuwin person iv met. At first he told me that it was new then when i tryed to haggle with the price (god loves a tryer) he told me he was selling it for a friend so couldnt. I was after a .22 but didnt seem to want to sell me one for some reason, the person that came into the shop after me he also tryed to sell .177 to him but he sed he didnt want a .177 he wanted .22. But im not all that clued up between the pro's and con between the two. iv always had an old .25. the gun seemed new apart from a small scratch on the wood. shoots accurate enough. He also sold me some EXACT DIABOLO slugs, telling me "these are the best pellets you can buy" but iv always though you had to match the pellets the gun not the gun to the pellets. So any feed back on either the rifle, scope, pellets or if you think its a good/bad price would be great. thanks pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyshooter Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 hi, pete welcome to the forum , the hw77 is a good gun , if these pellets are jsb exacts they are very good, also try Air Arms Field .177 , try these out first and see how they compare. regds brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NU_KID Posted November 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 aye, well it seems spot on now iv had a little play with it, only bad thing i could say about it is its a bit on the heavy side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightyrover Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 toughen up man! ps ive got a sling on mine :yp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scout Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 Fantastice bit of kit but very heavy. Sling is definately the way forward. mine love Air Arms Diablo hunters. I went for the 22 but I've tried both and there both great guns. Price seems about right, so don't think the guy had one over you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
