Just seen this advertised , do you think it would be of any benefit to the 95 or just a gimmick, kind of makes me interested in having one 👍

Many have their rifles modified so its a custom fit to them. They are all made the same but people are not all the same .
 
But the price of these are around £600. Sheeeesh.

To my mind allot for a 95k when the HW98 is there too. Could fit a lower mounted modest scope to a standard 95 as fit for a sporting rifle and get an acceptable scope eyeline anyway 😌
 
HW are renowned for having low stocks more suited for open sights.
So adding adjustable comb height can only be a good thing 👍

Edit: But sh!t!! For that price I’d just buy another second hand Huntsman 😉
 
Way Too little, way too late...still a horrid shape....and still need fingers like nosferatu to reach the trigger properly 👎
Took the words right out of my mouth

Since the 90's, AA and latterly Webley, were fitting their springers with stocks, that were vastly superior in ergonomics, to anything HW have ever produced.
And HW still don't learn

HW must be the single biggest cause, of Custom Stock, doing as well as they are, yet they still keep churning rifles out with cricket bat ergonomics
 
An adjustable cheek piece is always good to have, even the smallest adjustment can be beneficial. However that does seem to be a lot of money over a standard stock.

I've said it on another thread somewhere, at this point hw are just wasting resources (wood,power,man hours) and may as well offer an action only option for people who can actually see how poor there stocks really are, at a lower price point of course 👍

They probably don't have any real incentive to fix it. The recent thread on here shows why. The majority of people recommend weihrauch above anything else, despite poor stocks and having to finish the action yourself.

I would happily design a new trigger unit for cometa, free of charge, then we could maybe have some healthy competition :LOL:
 
So why then is the 95 one of, if not the best selling Weihrauch in the UK? I find mind a very comfortable to shoot and is currently my favourite springer.
They could have just done a lot better with the stock Mike

I'm pretty sure their stock design is based on their home market rifle needs, which must be mainly for use with open sights.
Yes we get moderated rifles here, but that's at the request of the importer rather than HW

And whichever way you look at it, their stock designer must have some pretty huge digits

Not one clue? Other than they are in a 'price point' goldie locks position in the market??

I had a early 95k (410mm barrel with muzzle weight) 20+ years ago I loved it,it shot very well, the stock on that was much much nicer than current ones....but the comb was still a bit low for scope use,and the reach to trigger was also again quite long

Yes l do have to agree with you that comb is low and could be higher. I’ve not long bought a Cometa Fusion and gotta say the stock on that is really nice.

The 97 stock isn’t bad, nice high comb, shame that doesn’t fit the break barrels. Or does it?
