What's Included
- Arminius HW 7 .22 LR revolver
Built on a double-action/single-action system, the HW 7 uses an 8-shot steel swing-out cylinder with a star extractor and a knurled ejector rod for straightforward unloading. The exposed hammer with a serrated spur supports both DA and precision SA shooting.
The 6 inch barrel is topped by a ventilated, serrated rib. Sighting is simple and durable, with a ramped front and a fixed square-notch rear that is integral to the topstrap.
The frame wears a blued finish and carries factory markings: rollmarks "ARMINIUS" and "HW 7" along with the barrel marking "cal. 22 l.r." The right-side frame medallion shows the Arminius helm emblem, and the frame is marked with the maker/address. This example has matching serial numbers on the crane/yoke and adjacent to the barrel shank.
Made in Germany by H. Weihrauch Sportwaffen Mellrichstadt, the revolver is full-size and fitted with brown marbled one-piece checkered synthetic grips featuring a diamond motif.
