Q:

Anyone have a 5G RWS pistol???

Need info on it. I might do a trade if I can
be sure the gun will perform well for hunting
and pest control.
Thanks in advance.

then one day
I lubed it with WD-40 and the power dropped by half.

Amen to that. I did the same thing as a kid. Soaked that poor gun in WD-40 ….wondered why it stunk so bad when I shot it…haha

Can be very accurate, but do require some technique to them. Mine is a bit underpowered at 520fps with 7.9 gr, but I do have a spare seal for it that I need to install. Person who had it before me had lent it out to some peckerhead who thought it needed some WD-40 on it… and promptly burnt the seal.

Small bird and pest control… sure.

Thanks for the info Rob.
I must confess, when I was a teen I owned an old
spring Rifle (don’t know the model) but had great
power. I would hunt rabbits and birds, then one day
I lubed it with WD-40 and the power dropped by half.

I had a stock one and then I got a brite idea to droop it. That screwed it up so I made another and it turned out perfect 😛

Yes I made the elusive RWS 5&6 Scope rail 😀

Came out awesome dude!!
You made the rail for your particular gun,
or did you create the rail that RWS sells for
those guns 😯 ???

I just copied the RWS one but made it longer.

Fairly accurate, hard hitting for a pistol.

Nice grips, look like Ricks!!

Dang that thing looks bad a$$!!!

How did you get the rail to mount the scope??

I have its accurate brother

Thanks for the replies guys.
I’ll see what decision I make.

They are a good robust pistol. But they are a springer pistol. Springer pistols are hard to master to shoot accurately

From what I’ve heard they’re under 600 fps with mid weight pellets. No good for hunting anything but small bird IMO.
