Today we’re taking an exclusive first detailed look at the new Weihrauch HW100X air rifle. Weihrauch airguns are always hugely popular among HAM readers, so I’m sure you will enjoy this update to yesterday’s announcement story.
Thanks to the help of Felix Weihrauch, we can look at a selection of detailed close-up photographs of this PCP air rifle. There’s also strong indications that the HW100X will become available in a variety of configurations, similar to those of the existing HW100 model.
However I must stress that this is an advanced “peek behind the curtain”. Full details of specific configurations and their availability will be revealed in due course…
Above we see that the Weihrauch HW100X will be available in multiple barrel lengths. These are 310 mm, 410 mm and 600 mm. This reflects the barrel lengths available in the existing range.
Also visible are different types of built-in silencer. In addition, it’s likely that there will be a “FSB” (Fully Shrouded Barrel) version, again as with the existing HW100.
Below we see the arrangement of the dual safety levers in detail.
The next photograph indicates that the receiver of the HW100X will be familiar to existing owners. Also, the cocking lever remains the same. Hey, if it’s not broke, don’t fix it!
The beautiful new laminated stock has a contrasting, adjustable cheekpiece. There’s also a chunky-looking adjustable buttplate that just has to be an outstanding contact point against the shooter’s shoulder.
Below, we see the compact, 310 mm barrel version. I definitely like the look of this!
The pistol grip is extensively stippled.
Plus, that stippling is included in the stock’s forearm. The M-LOK slots are on the underside, as we can see in the photograph below.
Up-front, the pressure gauge is similar and the current probe-fill system looks like it has been retained, too.
It’s worth checking-out the manufacturer’s website, too, for additional details of the Weihrauch HW100K as they are announced.
