The much-praised Rekord trigger

Does it feel like the trigger on the P3/HW40?

The P3/HW40 is the basis for the Beeman p-17, correct?

If so, then they're not the same. I have both a p-17 and an HW30s. They're both wonderful triggers but they don't feel exactly the same. In my opinion the Rekord is just a tiny, hard-to-describe bit better. Maybe it's German vs. Chinese craftsmanship?

My understanding is that the HW40 and P3 are both made by Weihrauch. The barrel of my P3 has "HW40" and "DE" imprinted on it and the entire gun is made in Germany.

Supposedly the P17 is a copy of the HW40/P3 licensed to Beeman but not made by Weihrauch.

That doesn't answer the question of whether the HW40/P3 trigger feels like the Rekord trigger.
