Analysis

The HW 357 T is the target-sighted companion to the 1977 HW 357. Weihrauch fitted it with a longer barrel, an adjustable rear sight, and wood grips. F.I.E. and later EAA brought Arminius .357 revolvers into the United States, often under other trade names. Hermann Weihrauch still lists the HW 357 T in current German catalogs. U.S. used prices follow other six-inch Arminius .357 guns rather than new European list.
