Which one ?
As an example of overcoming adversity, Karoly Takacs has few peers. He was part of Hungary’s world champion pistol-shooting team in 1938, when an army grenade exploded, crippling his right hand. Ten years later, having taught himself to shoot with his left, he won two gold medals in the rapid-fire class.

Out of the box, untuned, TX200HC
If you can lay your hands on a V mach kit, the 97k
Personally........ both
Based on cocking effort, trigger, and recoil

Re: Which one ?
It is really difficult to choose as both are extremely well built and look nice and a pleasure to shoot.I have both and if I must choose,I may just go with the HW-97K.Somehow,for me, the trigger feels way much better and you can sense the trigger breaking till the last moment.Also, the weight and balance are better,for me again, as I feel that the TX200 is a bit whippy in my hands. As you can see, these are quite subjective opinions.
What do you think,BTW?

Re: Which one ?
I found Tx200HC a bit front heavy. Never handled a MKIII. I think the best thing is to venomise a HW97 if its fit you.
Why not a prosport? Same TX powerplant, very smooth and fits like a glove (For me)

Re: Which one ?
I have to echo the sentiment. Having shot both the TX and the Prosport, I prefer the latter. It just feels.....right. Better balance, handling, recoil and trigger (and looks). I have been wanting to sell mine (family pressure, too many guns ) but baulk every time.kanwar76 wrote:I found Tx200HC a bit front heavy. Never handled a MKIII.

Though I will only let the V Mach-ed Weirauchs go from my cold dead hands. Even then you'll need a pair of pliers and a crowbar to prise them open.
