The Weihrauch "R" Series trigger, universally recognized as one of the finest available on a sporting gun, has a crisp, delightful feel that is fully adjustable. The solid body tube has deep dovetail grooves machined into the sides for maximum accuracy and stability. The safety automatically engages each time the rifle is cocked. It has a convenient thumb release and a red indicator shows that the rifle is ready to fire.

The elegant hardwood stock has a long forearm that adds grace and increased functionality for those who prefer to grasp the rifle further out. As an example of the workmanship of the rifle, examine the end cap of the receiver. Notice how the cap has been machined from a solid block of steel and carefully designed so that when it screws onto the back of the rifle it mates flush with the body tube. If this much care goes into one component, imagine how much thought and care has gone into the rest of the rifle!

The Weihrauch sets a high standard for all the others. One of the first airguns to break the mystical 1000 fps mark we have chosen to rate the Weihrauch HW 80 conservatively at 950 fps in .177 caliber. The R1 in .20 (5mm) .22 caliber is also highly recommended as the larger caliber gives a shooter and ideal combination energy and greater mass and frontal. The large swept air volume of theWeihrauch HW 80 makes it particularly well suited to the heavier calibers Single Shot Adult. The rifle is available in .177 and .20 (5mm) .22 calibers. Available in either right or left handed
