Beeman HW97 and HW77 Product description

*Beeman Silver Bear Pellets were used for the HW97 Shot Test.

Internationally recognized for its outstanding field accuracy, the classic Beeman HW-77 was the most successful underlever spring-piston sport rifle ever made. Several years ago, the stalwart HW-77 was upgraded to an even more formidable and stylish sporter. The revised model was designated the HW-97, and it too has received its share of praise from adult airgunners the world over.

Still enthusiastic about further developing the hidden potential of the basic HW-77 design, Weihrauch engineers have now succeeded in dramatically increasing the rifle's performance. The latest HW-97 series model now has performance approaching our famous R-1, and it does this with little increase in cocking effort or felt recoil!

As always, quality is what our valued customers have come to expect from Germany's premier sport air rifle maker. The fine ordinance steel action, barrel and cocking lever are hand polished and blued to a standard that exceeds most comparably priced firearms. Likewise for the elegant beech sporter stock, which features a long tapered forend, hand-cut checkering on the pistol grip, high comb with raised cheekpiece and a soft rubber recoil pad.

Intended for use with optical sights, the receiver is grooved to except 11mm ring or one-piece mounts. Of course, you also get the famous Record adjustable two-stage trigger and automatic safety; the trigger that has been the industry standard for over four decades! Field shooters will further delight in the HW-97's smooth cocking, handling and overall feel. It's an underlever sport air rifle that carries on the HW tradition of excellence.

HW-77 MKII: Returned to the Beeman line by popular demand, the venerable HW-77 "Carbine" is available once again. Still favored by many experienced field sport airgunners for its handy size and quick pointing qualities, the classic HW underlever has also received a full performance upgrade. Offered in .177 caliber, the action, barrel and cocking lever have all received the usual HW hand polish and blue. The beech sporter stock also follows traditional HW-77 series design, which includes hand-cut checkering on the pistol grip, high comb with raised cheekpiece and soft rubber recoil pad. It's the triumphant return of an old favorite!

So now field sport airgunners have the choice of two exceptional underlever sporters. Whether you choose the sleek lines of the Beeman HW-97, or the handy size of the Beeman HW-77 MKII, you really can't go wrong. Both have the performance and features that make them winners whenever their carried afield.

WarningThis airgun is recommended for adult use only. Careless use may result in serious injury or death. Dangerous within 450 yards (410 meters).
