Weihrauch HW .357 Magnum, A Funky Old Revolver

By David Tong

The German firm of Hermann R. Weihrauch Sportwaffen (pronounced“VY-rowk”) is probably best known for its above average quality air rifles,once imported and private branded by Beeman’s Precision Airguns. Out of theashes of WWII, when the Soviets looted their manufacturing facility inZella-Mehlis, where Carl Walther was also located, the firm relocated toBavaria in a city named Mellrichstadt. They quickly became known for theirprecision air guns, both rifles and pistols, and currently manufacture thesetarget arms with pricing ranging between $350 and nearly $1,500.
