Good Q there Manish! What's your take on the point as an experienced AG user?

I am just, encouraging answers as I have no idea about these two weapons and would love to learn.

Been there, done that, still doing it.
Believe me once you hold and shoot an HW77K or 97K, there is no looking back.
Both are under-levers 77/77K has open sights, 97K has no open sights.
Both shoot with a dull thud and not with the two way recoil springers are infamous for, especially the very powerful ones, respond well to tunes and have adequate power.
Trust me this whole power thing in springers is hog wash.
Both are superbly accurate. I have shot a 45mm circle at 50mtrs with a HW97K and a Bushy scope at 10x in an FT match. There are others who have done much more accurate shooting than me.
If it ever came to owning only springer, I'd say toss a coin between the 77K and 97K. You can and never will go wrong.
The 77K stock is suitable for people with large hands, the 97K has a slimmer and better balanced stock
This is my dream gun...an HW77K in a CS800 target stock. But that's wishful thinking. I'd be content with a 77K in a 97K stock



There is only one issue I have with both....they are heavy for me.....

Oooooops...sorry got carried away....Blame it on the HW's

weihrauch any day any time in compare to diana. They are much better built, outstanding precession and superbly accurate in compare to Diana.

HW 77/77K known to be one of the most accurate rifle in its category. if both rifles are available in India , then you can keep the diana and leave HW for me , I am ready to take it
