just a small point, but if I were checking Torque on a new Rifle, or for that matter any piece of equipment, I would recommend backing off every screw or bolt prior to torqueing it, there is always a chance that the item has been overtightened prior to you receiving it...
KEVIN: When it's time to clean the barrels on my TX200 or HW97K, I use Balistol on my pull-through wet patches with success. I also continue with Balistol wipes over all parts of the gun. This keeps the stock and blueing looking beautiful. Thanks for your efforts, Orv.
Thank you Kevin. It's widely known that many newer springer airgun owners are not aware that in shooting these springers, it is an 'art', and the old school maintenance for these is even more so. And, it's not the owners or the airguns fault. So, it feels like it is up to us 'old' guys to encourage and teach the old school ways of doing these things. In the past 10 years, I've heard the complaints of 'my springer' is not accurate... or the saying..'it smokes and sounds like a .22 long rifle'.. When I ask if they cleaned the grease and oil out of the barrel... I get a blank stare. Once they are taught how to clean and shoot these springers, they realize that their airguns ARE very accurate if shot PROPERLY. All of this makes for happier springer airgun owners. Best regards from Texas!
Thank you for this video! Great information for someone who is just starting to learn about this stuff like me. Also, much nicer to see someone actually doing the work instead of just reading about it. I have a hard time visualizing sometimes.
Great to see you doing this kind of educational video to help people get a good start on their spring gun odyssey. When I acquired my San Rafael R7 back in the dark ages, I treated it with the same care and respect lavished on my finest powder arms. It has served me well for nearly 40 years now, and is still a one hole rifle at 45+ feet when I do my part. Keep 'em coming.
GARY: I don't clean the barrels on my airguns very often, actually I clean my new rifles with Balistol. I seldom clean my in use airguns, using a cleaning patch only if accuracy becomes a problem. In fact, I use Balistol everywhere on my springers. My comment for you is about the material used for cleaning. Of course, I use my commercially made fishing line to draw my pads, which are properly sized cut pieces of an old flannel shirt saturated with Balistol and followed through with 92% alcohol until clean and dry. Do you see any problem with my materials or methods? Orv.
Congratulations on the new acquisition! Thank you for reminding me at least about checking the screw torque specs on our rifle. Once more, great video, and thank you for sharing.
Oh, awesome. That's 350 is supposed to be quite a rifle. I've owned a few of those P5s. You're gonna love it! Very satisfying shooter that balances well in the hand.
Hi Kevin! Always a big pleasure to see your vids. Yes a common problem with the stock screws, even with the polymer or composite stocks. Probably many of us made the mistake to adjust the scope before checking the crews.... 😂That L/H stock looks great. I like that flat and wider underside. Your 95 will gonna be a dream tot shoot with. I always recommend the 95 to friends and i did even order some brand new ones for them, put also Vortek tune kit's in them, but i don't have the 95 in my HW collection 😵💫 Cheers!
Thanks Rapalaron. Your comments always make my day. Looking forward to getting started on that stock job. The 95 will look incredible dressed in that custom, left hand stock.
Great video Kevin. Very informative as always. I didn't realize that there where spect to tighten down the screws on the springers. You learn something new everyday. I look forward to seeing you complete this gun with the new stock!! There used to be some guys making nice stocks back in the day for airguns. Keep up the great content my friend!!
Hey Buddy! Good to hear from you. Don't get too wrapped up in torque specs. Set 'em and check 'em every once in awhile. Thanks so much for taking the time to leave your comments. It's what makes the channel.
You are correct, IP alcohol is not readily available over the counter in the UK but we can get it online no problem. Through building bikes (cycles) and the hassle I've had with blue loctite, I wouldn't use it on small bolts with a hex head and only on things that have a heat cycle like brake rotors. Yep, torque down then re torque after some shooting......in this mysterious inch pound measurement 🤪 Guy that runs my local gun shop says the Turkish guns, (Kral is a popular one in the UK) have really dirty barrels when new.
Hey Kevin, Great video on foot pounds per inch torque screw adjustments for mounting the break barrel platform to the stock. I will definitely need this information when I do my projects. Stay Safe. Be Well. GOD BLESS.

Congratulations on your HW95. I have two of these in 22 cal with after market spring guide and top hats. Delightful to shoot... I think possibly my favorite break barrel air rifle. Regards
Thanks Tony. I haven't put the 95 through it's paces yet but it sure is a sweet rifle. I'll be installing an ARH Hornet kit in mine which I'm sure will improve the shot cycle. Currently my 95 honks like a goose. Stay tuned for more videos on the HW95. Thanks so much for watching.

hello kevin ,its better to set the little screw first in the triggergard becaus the bif screw can damage the little screw when fastening , if the stock is dry after time the screws stay put
Hi Bill. The information that I was able to find says that these torque specs are for Weihrauch springers. Here are those exact numbers. Front screws 22.1 in lb Forward trigger guard screw 44.3 in lb Rear trigger guard screw 22.1 in lb For a reliable answer you'd need to contact Weihrauch directly. I wish that I knew for certain. I use these specs on all of my Weihrauch guns but I could be doing it wrong. They all shoot as they should so who knows...?
That's awesome David! Congratulations on becoming the owner of a wonderful rifle. It'll bring you a lifetime of enjoyment. You should be able to find a more affordable inch lb torque wrench. That price seems a little on the high side. Thanks as always for watching my friend.
@@razor1962 Been shooting the 35 today Kevin its so smooth to cock !a bit of spring twang but only had about 70 pellets at the moment ! thanks for the reply!.
You would probably be better with a torque wrench calibrated in Nm - Nm is most likely what Weihrauch use (European and metric) and hence the slightly odd figures when giving the inch-pound equivalents.
I did a Google search for " Weihrauch torque specs" and read through the posts on airgun forums. You can learn allot from some of those guys. Thanks for watching.

I suppose the other manufacturers, like Air Arms (TX200) would be similar. I rarely use blue Loctite... the first thing I always do with scope screws and stock screws (and the threads they screw into) is clean them with isopropyl alcohol before tightening them... I installed Mac1 brass stock screw cups on all my Weihrauch models years ago... they really help to prevent compressing the stock wood... but I don't think he sells them anymore, and some that I've seen online, are more decorative than functional. I've been using the "Crown Saver" barrel cleaner for many years now... I purchased a few extra to have handy, and give out to those who are clueless on how to clean an airgun barrel... they always seem to be sold out whenever I look for them.

Any info or links on where you can get that particular pull-through tool? I have a couple different options, but that looks like it would be more convenient than what I'm currently doing.
@@razor1962 restoring guns is actually a hobby of mine, the oldest I've done was a 1950 Mossberg 22. It came to me with a mottled stock that was dented and cracked, broke butt plate, a severely rusted barrel, and it jammed every other shot. I stripped and steamed it, fixed the crack with super glue and dust from sanding it, used epoxy to fill in the missing piece of butt plate, used a honey amber dye on the walnut and put 7 very thin coats of polyurethane on it allowing each one 48 hours of cure time before sanding each. Then allowed 14 days to fully cure before buffing with a cutting gel and applying 2 coats of Renaissance Wax. The rusted barrel and mag required a whole bunch of sanding/finishing, and then I hot blued it (cold blueing is a joke). For the internals I just flushed them with silicone lube several times. When it was done the customer couldn't believe it was his ratty gun that he dropped off, and gave me a $200 tip. I can do amazing things with guns. 🤠
@@razor1962 if you got an old airgun that needs some TLC just send it to me and I won't charge you a penny as long as you mention me and pin my contact information on that vid. 🙂

Hi ..I’m a UK sub…I’ve just purchased a Weihrauch HW80 .22 cal..it’s an 82/84 model that is almost mint with its original ( external).fittings !from its original owner.. When I stripped the rifle ( packed with grease) the piston had an O-ring seal not the usual seal washer/cap…so 2 impact points were metal on metal ..rifle is way over powered running at a constant 19.5 ft lb ..FAC rated here and I intend fitting the correct sub 12 ft lb kit ..my question is have you ever come across this O-ring method ..I own 10 highly tuned Weihrauch springers but I’ve never come this set up before
Hi, Alan. I have not come across an HW80 fitted with an o-ring type piston seal. I did a brief search on the internet and found this. Perhaps it'll be of some help. Thanks for watching, my friend. www.gatewaytoairguns.org/GTA/index.php?topic=185262.0
Hi Mike! Ya' know, I don't own very many RWS / Diana air rifles. I do plan on changing that very soon. I cut my teeth with springers back in the eighties.
