Lowering (calibrating) the power of a Weihrauch HW100

As you might be aware some of the Weihrauch HW100's have been creeping close to or over the UK legal limit of sub 12ftlbs so I have made this tutorial about lowering the output.

what a great vid...keep it up.

so what if i have an fac verson.. can i calabrabte it down to get a higher shot count

[cubleycat]

@xsamitt Best question posted :-) I believe you can do that yes, an F.A.C rifle's regulator is set at a higher pressure and that's one reason why the 12ftlbs version wont wind up, I am not going to tell anyone how to wind up the power but I know they will find out if they want to anyway and they should beware they could face 5 years in prison! I think you will be able to lower it, it depends what its set at now and what hammer spring it has but I don't see why not :-)

I'm gona give it a go this summer with mine. I've been up to 75m so far. 200m just seem imposibal. If I get close I'll be back to apologise

@gunlovingcragrat Well I was surprised I have to say but the first time I did it was in a dry field that had just been seeded so I could see where the pellet was landing. I had to pack under the scope to get the elevation of about 25 yards above the target! I did this video after the rifles came back from the police who tested them, all came back legal. it was to help other Hw100 owners lower theirs as many creep over a little bit!

How you gona do the 200m shots now ?

[cubleycat]

@gunlovingcragrat Just the same, I made them with a sub 12ftlbs!
