@tomcin 

I for some reason have 5, and my age they will never be all broke in.  But I really enjoy shooting all of them.  Charles

You don't see this R7 version often 177

P1010079
P1010083

Or a nice one likes this earlier one I've had over 35 years

I prefer the early R7 stocks. I worked on converting a pre safety R7 stock to use on a later gun today. You have to fill in the area where the metal cap goes at the back of the channel. Making a wooden ring when cut in half covers most of it. It's for a particular purpose to be revealed later...............

 

OK, I'm making a pattern to duplicate in nice walnut.

An HW30 in an earlier R7 stock 

177 

I bought the gun several years ago from a guy who got lost trying to adjust the trigger. Had it all out of wack. New gun otherwise. I had scrounged the stock from another member.

Only 2..so far...lol.

2005 Huntington Beach R7 .20. Anniversary present from my definite keeper of a girlfriend:

R7 6

2018 R7 .177, bought gently used from a fellow member of another forum:

Beeman R7 .177 Bench 1

Both are more accurate than I can shoot them some days but not parting with them or the other 4 Beeman rifles I also own 🙂

@bf1956 Mine are all Rekord. All R7 are Rekord. I don't think many HW30 with Perfekt were imported

@kwk Yes Perfekt Triggers were also Imported , they were 2 Stage and better than most triggers except for Rekord Trigger! I has 2 HW 30 rifle 1 HW 25 and 1 Hw 50 all with Perfekt Triggers and all very Accurate and clean 2 Stage Triggers !

I have a Beeman-era R7, and recently picked up its grandpa, an HW 30S from the 1960's.

The slender finger-groove stock and 14mm barrel are really light, a modern 30 is a chunk in comparison. It was probably an old Air Rifle Headquarters import, and I found an "ARH 624" Williams sight for it. I stuck a Maccari kit in it and it's a terrific shooter.

In the 1950's HW made only the HW 35, 50, and 55 rifles, which did have several different triggers in the early days. But the HW 30 was introduced in the early 1960's, and to the best of my knowledge, has aways had the modular Rekord or Perfekt triggers (which are interchangeable by the way).

@bf1956 Yes but Hw 25 was Better but now discontinued in favor of more popular HW 30s with better trigger and a little more fps ! HW 25 was smaller intended for Junior’s!
