Title: HW45 pistol 0.177 w/cocobolo grips
Post by: harry palmer on March 02, 2012, 11:55:09 AM
Here`s my new HW45 pistol,I wanted the 2 tone Silver Star version(Beeman P11), but my stoopid small  hands meant I couldn`t get comfortable with it`s beautiful laminate grips :'(, so I bought the standard model and used the left over cash to get the Hogue grips you see on it.

All that`s written about the HW45/P1 smokin` and detonating (twice on me!) is true ,but once it settles down it`s a brilliant pistol to shoot!
I can hit a 500ml plastic bottle out at 30 yds (off the bench, relaxed 2 handed grip,leaning on a cushion using open sights) and this gun just gets better and better!

Take care

Kenny

Grumpy, I don`t have a chrono, but on the higher power level 7.5g Prometheus Defiants and 7.9g JSB Express pellets will go thru both side of a Campbell`s soup tin at 18 yds and many repeated hits on a old pie tin hanging out at 30 yds eventually caused some breaks.

Take care

Kenny
