Hello,
I recently disassembled my HW35 and discovered that it was missing a barrel shim. I then discovered that I could not find this part the US. I also wanted a few other screws for my other HWs.
I found something that might work on Pyramids site, but they never replied when I asked them about it. Also, $7 shipping for two barrel shims is excessive.
Another site , Airgun Warehouse, seemed to have HW parts but their site appears broken (strange error messages when clicking on items), so I am weary of them.
I ended up buying from TW Chambers in the UK.
Is there HW parts supplier in the US with an inventory similar to TW chambers?

I would be leary of buying HW parts from Pyramyd Air - my experience is they re-label items to their part system.
They do correctly re-package some parts - but they also make mistakes, then they charge you for re-stocking.

Next time you need something like that, ask here in the forum first. I have some of those washers as spares, and I would have happily dropped them in the mail to you for the cost of the items.
Others here do the same, such as Nced, who sent me one little spring for a Rekord trigger. Thanks again Nced!! :D
Seems like I place an order for something important (like a Webley mainspring) with either TW Chambers or John Knibbs at least once a month, and I always include little parts like that in my order.
:D

In addition to Pyramyd, you can call Airguns of Arizona to see if they have parts. I believe they are the HW US distributor.
I often order from Chambers, though.

God bless TW Chambers or John Knibbs . I've been using them for the past few years . The parts are somewhat expensive when you convert to CAD but well worth it . You know you'll get factory replacement parts and not copies . Like stinger mentioned , include some little parts in every order . In fact , just placed an order from Knibbs for a refresher on an soon to be in my hands vintage HW35E.

I've also been helped by others here when finding parts. When I needed a new HW95 breech seal I was appalled at the $8ish + about $8 shipping so I looked elsewhere. I tried a couple different aftermarket breech seals but found that the factory BREECH seal worked better.
Well.....after posting my breech seal issue a friend sent me a couple new HW factory breech seals from his "stash".
When ordering from TW Chambers I also bundle small items with the order to save shipping. The last thing I ordered from "across the pond" was a "HW97 stock mounting lug" so I added a couple HW95 "square receiver plugs" to the order...........

LOL....guess why I needed the two extra HW95 "receiver plugs". I used to do all my chrony work outdoors and usually chose to only chrony the action without the stock. Well, one day forgot to remove the 4 "locking plugs" after removing the stock and before shooting a few pellets over the chrony. When I took the action upstairs for reassembly I noticed that all 4 of those plugs had "popped out" onto the lawn with the shooting. I did find two of the errant plugs in the grass but couldn't find the others.

Chambers Gunspares in the UK for me. Very good service. Very reasonable prices and shipping.
