Weihrauch HW 90

The Weihrauch HW90K .22 is a high-performance, break-barrel air rifle powered by a gas-ram system rather than a traditional metal spring. It features a carbine-length rifled steel barrel, an adjustable Elite two-stage trigger, and a walnut-stained beech sporter stock.

Key Specifications

• Calibre: .22 (5.5 mm)

Core Features

• Theoben Gas-Ram System: Replaces the standard mainspring with a gas-filled chamber. This gives you a faster lock time, less vibration ("twang"), smoother cocking, and zero spring fatigue over time.
• Elite Trigger Unit: A crisp, two-stage adjustable trigger that includes a convenient automatic safety catch resetting every time you cock the rifle.
• Ergonomic Stock: Made from solid beech with a rich walnut stain, featuring nice checkering on the pistol grip, a raised cheek piece, and a rubber butt pad to absorb recoil.
• Threaded Barrel: Designed to accept a factory sound moderator/silencer to significantly reduce muzzle report.

Performance and Use

• Handling: The "K" (Kurz/short) designation means it has a handier, shorter barrel than the standard HW90, making it easier to maneuver in tight spaces or hides.
• Consistency: The .22 caliber variant delivers a heavy-hitting, stable flight path ideal for medium-range target shooting and managing pests.
