The Weihrauch HW97K Underlever Air Rifle is a benchmark in spring-piston design, engineered in Germany for exceptional accuracy, reliability and ease of use. Available in both .177 and .22 calibres, this rifle is factory-set to sub‑12 ft·lbs for full UK legal compliance, making it perfectly suited for target shooting, plinking and light pest control.
At the heart of the HW97K is a fixed‑barrel underlever system that delivers superb shot‑to‑shot consistency and minimal movement during firing. This proven action is housed within a classic sporter stock featuring an ergonomic grip, raised cheekpiece and fine chequering to give you confident control whether shooting off‑hand or from a rest.
Operation is smooth and deliberate thanks to the underlever cocking system with integrated anti‑beartrap safety, ensuring safe loading every time. The rifle also features an automatic safety catch that engages upon cocking, providing an extra layer of reassurance before firing.
Trigger control is outstanding, courtesy of the renowned Rekord two‑stage adjustable trigger, which offers a light, crisp break to help you achieve tighter groupings. The precision‑rifled barrel, combined with the underlever’s consistent lockup, ensures excellent pellet stability and reliable long‑range performance.
Finished with a silencer‑ready barrel shroud for a reduced muzzle report and improved balance, the HW97K is built to the highest standards with a durable blued steel finish. Weighing approximately 4.1 kg (9 lbs) unscoped and measuring 102 cm (40.1 inches) overall, it feels solid and stable in the shoulder. Backed by a 1‑year UK warranty through the official importer, Hull Cartridge Company, the Weihrauch HW97K is a true investment in precision shooting that will deliver years of dependable service.
