Terrible design, but we all keep buying them as it’s a “simple fix”.

So simple Weihrauch can’t be arsed to do it.

i do ! :/

Not the worst I've seen on a 30, but a definite indication that left unattended its going to get worse

Quite poor design, not helped by the uk fascination of the little junior rifle, and the extent that it can get pushed to here.

See thats the bit i dont get !! If its designed to be a junior rifle should it not be built like a tank to take tins & tins of pellets through it.
Get brand loyalty at an early age.

Marketed as a junior rifle in Germany
Often pushed up to and beyond it designed limit here. Lots of preload is not the friend of the 30
The importer Hull Cartridge decide the spec on the rifles that we get here, not the maker

Similar with the 99 and all it's inherent probems

Make sure the piston seal isn't too tight, should just hold its own weight. with a tiny smear of moly on the sides.

I would say the two outer lines is the cocking link (not the insert though it is wearing off the bluing) wearing lines like the one in this thread.

THE BARREL AND COCKING LEVER

The barrel removal is a simple operation starting with the removal of the domed locking nut on the right hand side of the action.
This domed nut has a spring ring under it so take care as not to lose it..


Next, the barrel can be broken and the domed screw on the left hand side of the action can be released.. This will unscrew easily as there is no spring tension on the cocking lever or the action.




NOW is the ideal time to remove the guide poin for the cocking lever. This is located in...

I put a bit of a cutting board in my HW99s cocking link before i gave up with it and it lay for years in bits.
