And then subsequently the Weihrauch 40 the HW40 was produced and bang for buck it knocked the HW75 into a cocked hat!Following the release of the HW45 and its initial (and indeed continuing) success it was decided that there was a hole in the market for a highly accurate, firearms style match pistol and so the SSP version was put into production as the Beeman P2. This was later sold in the rest of the world as the Weihrauch HW75.
However, nothing in the range comes close to the quality of the HW75. Certainly, the HW40 - for instance - is a very accurate pistol and is of good build, I sort of regret selling mine really because for the eighty quid or so you can pick one up for you are up running and in business shooting in competition - a night out could cost more!
But turning up with a HW75 is a whole new ball game - EVERYONE wants a go. They are sweet to operate, have a very balanced feel and scream quality. The opposition is plastic!
No contest
