Weihrauch HW44 — PCP Air Pistol

Weihrauch HW44 Review — The Scaled-Down HW110 That Redefines Pistol Performance

The Weihrauch HW44 is a pre-charged pneumatic air pistol that caused quite a stir when it was launched, and for good reason . If you are searching for a Weihrauch HW44 review, you will find owners impressed by its match-grade accuracy and the fact that it is basically a scaled-down version of the renowned HW110 rifle . This German-made pistol features a 250mm barrel, a 10-shot rotary magazine, and a sidelever action that cocks smoothly. The supreme quality and design set the HW44 apart, making it one of the most capable PCP pistols on the market . At Linear Airguns, we proudly offer the Weihrauch HW44 to European shooters. We ship fast across Scandinavia, the Slavic nations, and all of Europe.

Weihrauch HW44 — Power and Shot Count

The HW44 delivers exceptional performance with impressive efficiency. The Weihrauch HW44 air pistol price reflects premium German engineering. In .177 caliber (4.5mm), muzzle energy reaches approximately 5.7 ft-lbs, with over 100 shots per fill. The .22 caliber (5.5mm) version provides around 120 shots per fill . Over a full charge, the pistol shows a velocity variation of only 16 FPS, demonstrating remarkable consistency . Owners report getting 60 shots per fill with a spread of just 15 FPS and a standard deviation of 4.2 FPS . The trigger measures at just 500g out of the box, providing a crisp, predictable release .

10-Shot Magazine and Sidelever Action

The magazine system on the HW44 is a brilliant piece of German design. The 10-shot rotary magazine holds pellets securely using a very simple O-ring system . You cannot double load the pistol—the mechanism prevents it entirely . The sidelever action is smooth and easy to operate, with the cocking lever sitting on the left-hand side for right-handed shooters. For those searching HW44 manual details, the pistol can be converted to left-handed operation by swapping the lever and magazine release, with a factory service available for a small additional cost . The pistol is “self-regulating” according to Weihrauch, delivering consistent velocities across the entire shot string .

Accuracy at Longer Ranges

The HW44 is supremely accurate at any range . At 10 yards, the pistol literally one-holes with open sights . At 25 meters, it is laser-accurate, and at 50 meters, sub-1-inch groups are possible with a steady rest . One owner using a red dot sight at 50 yards reported groups barely over 1 inch . For long-range work, fitting a scope is recommended, and Weihrauch offers a dedicated 2×20 pistol scope with long eye relief . When benched, the HW44 can handle 25-metre FT targets with ease, and two-handed, you can push out to 45 yards . The pistol’s match-grade barrel truly shows its quality .

Weihrauch HW44 Accessories — Stock, Moderator, and More

The HW44 has a growing range of accessories to enhance the shooting experience. A purpose-made moderator is available for £65 and makes the pistol extremely quiet, essential for backyard plinking . Carbine stocks from aftermarket makers allow you to convert the pistol into a compact rifle . A single-shot loader is available for precision sessions, improving consistency compared to magazines at long range . The pistol comes with a 70mm Picatinny rail in front of the trigger guard for lasers or lights . Owners also recommend a quality case, as the pistol is 19 inches long, falling between a normal pistol case and a carbine case .
