The Weihrauch HW97 is a long-running favorite from the German manufacturer. But now there’s a new HW97K Walnut model. It’s available in the USA from Airguns of Arizona.
The oil-rubbed walnut stock certainly looks distinctive and classy, as the photographs included in this post show.
The underlever-cocking HW97 earned a HAM Gold Award when we tested it back in 2015. It’s also unusual in being available in .20 caliber.
In fact, HAM PCP specialist tester Doug Rogers has his own HW97K in this caliber. He loves it, even though – by his own admission – he’s not a great springer shooter!
The HW97K Walnut compliments a wide range of stock, caliber and finish options that are available for this spring/piston air rifle. It joins the recently-launched “125 Year Anniversary” HW97KT with black/red laminate stock that HAM revealed from the 2024 IWA OutdoorClassics show in Germany.
in fact, it’s worth spending some time looking at the full range of HW97 models, as the range is quite extensive. All share the same basic spring/piston action, with underlever cocking and “Rekord” trigger.
