What great videos, thanks for sharing and demonstrating your no doubt hard earned knowledge. Will be purchasing a kit for my HW30S soon and adjusting the trigger.
When you remove the trigger guard, if you screw in the small screw back into the trigger unit you cant loose the pesky screw. The older Rekord trigger units dont have the screw to loose as the trigger housing is tapped to take the trigger guard small screw. The 1980 hw80 I had was like this and my 1991 hw80 is as well.
1st stage travel isn't merely how far the trigger blade moves but also how much sear engagement a set trigger has. Longer first stage = more sear overlap = safer trigger = more resistant to bump firing.
Brilliant video!! I damaged my trigger to straighten the bit that holds the safety in because it looked bent 😂, so everytime I cocked my rifle the safety popped out instead of buying a full unit at extortionate prices i bought the casing and transfered the bits over!! A job I dont want to do again 😅😅 loving the video's keep up the good work I will do this on my trigger 👍👍
Fantastic nice plain English, learned a lot. I've got my HW57 tuning kit from you and now feel confident to sort the kit and adjust the trigger while I'm at it.
Great video. Very easy to follow along. As mentioned in the comments a guide to the HW90 Elite trigger would be nice. I adjusted mine by trial and error and love it now but was a dog when I first got the rifle, It is however quite tricky to get it back in the rifle and then be able to cock the rifle even when you know what you "Should" be doing.
Thanks for a good explanation Nick. I would comment that it would be prudent to have re assembled the rifle then gone outside and actually cocked and loaded the rifle and with the rifle pointing in a safe direction done a bump test on the stock just to ensure the trigger is SAFE. You could also have mentioned that the trigger can be adjusted so much that you are unable to cock the rifle at all. Regards
Cheers for sharing, always a pleasure, I will taking my hw77 apart very soon and then I'm going to put one of your tbt kits in, as I'm not happy with how its shooting at the moment.
Hello from Canada. I watched your three episodes on the HW99/50S stripdown/degreasing/anti-galling/lubricating plus this video on Rekord trigger adjustments. I appreciate your knowledge and humor and I benefitted greatly form your videos. I recently purchased a HW50S after watching your videos and becoming familiar with the Weihrauch brand. I will enjoy my new hobby immensely with my recent purchase after using a number of lower quality brand air rifles since retiring a couple of years ago. Could you please provide advise on preventative maintenance as to how often the HW99/HW50S should be cleaned and relubricated? (i.e. every xxxx number of pellets or time interval). Thank you!
You should restrict the top sear with a pin through the chassis when testing outside the gun. Otherwise top sear hits the lower sear carrier into the rollers on the trigger blade denting the carrier and giving you a "notchy" feeling trigger
Thanks so much for this. If you wanted to lighten the trigger pull would you try to straighten that bit of metal that it’s threaded through first, or would you just crank on the screw with a big screwdriver or other object?
Good solid advice. I send mine off for full fettling as while I probably could do it but it would take me ages and I just don’t want to. Excellent tip about the hot glue and that bloody M5 nut, an obvious fix but I didn’t think of it!
🙂Thanks!
Thanks so much for the brilliant videos. I’ve just acquired a second hand HW 80k and have now managed to give it a bit of a service thanks to you . 👌👌

Hi
I know you are a dedicated spring man but a detailed video of a HW 90 strip and rebuild would be appreciated.

Hello Nick, thank you for this great explanation of the Rekord Trigger adjustment. Very helpful.
Incredible explanation. You are very good at giving instruction, sir. Thank you.
Nice presentation of useful information. Please keep this sort of video coming.
Excellent tutorial, finally got my trigger how I like it now
Thanks Nick, for the very clear explanation. Videos like this really help a lot of people. Very educational, thanks again. Greetings from Belgium
Great video once again. Not sure if you have a TX but if you do, would you be willing to repeat this video on that trigger unit?
Yes the TX-200.
Excellent video, great explanation. Do you have any plans to produce a guide on how to make adjustments to the trigger unit on the HW100?

I bought a box of 500 of those small nuts. I've lost hours of my life looking for old ones.😂
Cheers useful thing to know.... 8-)
Thank you 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks so much for this. If you wanted to lighten the trigger pull would you try to straighten that bit of metal that it’s threaded through first, or would you just crank on the screw with a big screwdriver or other object?
Use a screwdriver that fits the screw very well

Thanks mr nick
just wrap a bit of tape around the safety catch and the block, stops it going anywhere.
Great idea Chris!👍
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙋♂️
Poor Will, everyone's firing at him.
Nick .,do you know when hw30 kits will be in stock
I have ordered an HW30s with both barrels from Germany. Hopefully I will have a new kit sorted soon👍
Does this include all pcp’s as well?
I’m not sure? The HW60 & 66 rimfires have the record trigger unit though
