Was just looking at the Walther website for Hammerli's.  Looks like they are now gone and been replaced with a look alike Walther they are calling the "Classic"!!!!

IMO, Hammerli's effectively been gone since the mid 1990's.

It looks an awful lot like a walther trailside /x-esse, but now it is a "CSP".  They will probably change it again to something else before very many make it to stores here.

Anyhow here's the walther video on it;

My low end model Xesse SF Long came with the rail and fixed front sight, I notice the low end CSP Classic has the same fixed front sight and no rail.

But it's an 11mm rail. Weaver/picatinny won't mount as they are more like 25mm

It looks to me that there are a lot of 11mm scope rings available for 1" and 30mm scope tubes, as well as, other sizes. Am I missing something?

Interesting how they stressed the linage to the Walther Olympian. After WWII Hammerli made the Olympian and then improved it, that was the 208 if you look at the 2nd generation Olympians and the 208 without the barrel weight they are very similar.

I use a Primary arms and Aimpoint 11mm micro base works great. I just line the base screw up with trigger pin when I clean the gun and never lose zero by more than a click at 25 yards if at all.

The scope rail for the Xesse SF is kind of a waste of time. I have one unused I can sell for what I paid, $90. It is a regular weaver rail that mounts one the barrel with screws, so you have to remove the scope and the rail to clean the gun. If you are ok with with that $90 and it is yours.

No question the trailside and xesse/ csp are entry.level 208s. Design is very similar and some parts like the mainspring are the same. They are great little pistols
