How far should I adjust the cocking spring screw by? In terms of depth, you say to the max but what is the max?

It's about 0.15" or as you turn the screw adjuster in you can see the hammer pin is started to move forward and that's more than enough, if it goes too far you can tell you will have a hard time loading the magazine or jamming the lever cocking action.

Thanks for all the advice. I have turned the screw in about 3/16" and turned the removed two shims from the regulator and turned it in till in touches the shims. It is now awesome.....only downside is I only get about 60 shots before it goes from 200 bar to 90 bar, but I still get good pentration right down to 40 bar which is giving me 75 shots at around 30 yards.

Hi Kraut, welcome to the forum.

You meant the C3 ??, no I don't think you can destroy the regulator by
doing so but what would happen is that you will get a lower velocity since
the pressure is overpowering the hammer spring unless you get a
stronger hammer spring or untill the pressure in the bottle is drop.

So:When i screw D3 out i get less Air pressure in the chamber.
When i screw D3 in i get more Air pressure.Is that right?
My gun is limited to 7,5 joule (germany is still in dictatorship)

But i dont get the 7,5joule
The range of power goes from 140m/s up to 160m/s and back :/
I just want the 170-175m/s

Hi Kraut, if that the case then all you need to do perhaps just adjust the
hammer spring D2 a couple turns. It's easy to do, take the 2 screws at the
back, slide out the D2 a little bit untill you can see the little set screw that
hold the adjuster, turn the adjuster screw and you're done.

Yes but its secured with a little little screw.And some kind of "red" loctite :/
Screw in or out to adjust?

oh no, they put loctite there too. Yeah, I had to take mine out completely and used a pen torch to get it out easy.
You have to screw in to tighten up the spring to punch harder.

Yeah that is one more problem to get D2 out of the system.I looked at the hammer module.There are some little holes but they are not even

But its the only way to get the arm off the system

Yup, that's the only way, I have taken mine out about 3 times, after a while it's not a big deal just have to be careful so not to scratch the receiver. It's only take about 20 minutes and you're done, after that you play with the adjuster easily.

Hello HW100-shooters!

I own also one of these nice items from Weihrauch (.22 30fpe-version (long barrel)).

I saw this topic a few times (and learned very much about the rifle!).

but i have one question.

As we all can see on the first page of this topic, the topic-starter uses clear codings to the parts.

My question is about the C-part, the blok where the barrel is fixed to the rifle.
On top of it, there are the scope-mount grooves. At the bottom there are a few (5?) hex-bolts. (not the hex-bolts that take care that part C1 and C2 are not falling out the C-blok, but the otherones.

What is the function of these bolts?
When i take them out, can that be dangerous for the rifle?
Can i improve the shooting-behaviour by adjust these bolt?

I hope that anyone knows this!

Hi DeBreuR,

Welcome to the forum.

I'm not sure which bolt are you talking about BUT by sound of it, you're
talking about the pressure adjuster hex bolt. Clock wise to increase the
pressure and then you want to increase the tension of the hammer spring
to give more power, the result increase the velocity and ft.lbs (fpe).

Hello Sniper,

That's not the hexbolt that i'm talking about.

I hope that the picture i maded is vissible in this reply.

The orange arrow's are pointing to the hex-bolts i mean.

I'm curious what is the function of those.

Hi DeBreuR,

Ah, I see, I never touch those screws since they're not part of any adjustment for performance.
Perhaps ETA can tell us.
If you ever find out let us know .....

Thx.
