Things I liked:

I purchased my Hatsan Jet II in .25 caliber. I spent a range day with it yesterday and am very pleased with how it performs! My thing is to shoot it in pistol form. I set up .22 rimfire NRA legal steel silhouettes and shoot at them at various distances from 15 to 25 yards. These steel silhouettes are made from 1/4" thick steel and are HEAVY. At all these distances the Jet II knocks them down with authority! I was shooting the Air Arms Diablo Field domed pellets which weigh 25.4 grains. I'm getting 30 useable shots off of a 250 bar fill and in the last string of 6 shots noticed that the pellets were striking about an inch lower than the top of the fill... Matthew in another review commented that he's seeing 620 ft/sec with FX Hybrid 26 grains and I believe him! Very solid power out of this pistol! The biggest thing for me is the twin air reservoirs that make 30 shots a reality at this power level! Game changing!

Things I would have changed:

It would have been great if the top rail was either weaver or picatinny, but it was no problem to mount an 11mm dovetail to Weaver adapter at the rear and throw on my favorite Feyachi RDS-22 two MOA micro red dot sight. When I first looked at the fill probe I was ecstatic because it looks like a standard Foster. Finally! No..... It isn't.... It's very close, but the dimensions are off some. I couldn't get any of my Foster female equipped charge hoses to fit. Fortunately, one of my charge hoses had the correct female threaded connector to accept the Hatsan provided fill probe. A little nylon thread tape later and I was off and running! Other than these minor issues I think Hatsan has hit a home run with the Jet II!

What others should know:

The report from the Jet II is loud. Not nearly as loud as my Barnes .32 caliber Heritage pistol or any of my Quackenbush bigbore Bandit pistols, but loud enough that it might be a deal breaker in some locations. Fortunately it has the ability to add a 1/2 x 20 UNF adapter and then any DonnyFL moderator one wants to quiet it down. I couldn't fit this in the things I like above, but I really love that this pistol is on the light side due to the polymer material used and that it's dimensions are what I'd call true pistol-like dimensions. It's not excessively long... This is another benefit of dual reservoirs connected by a manifold beneath the barrel! I wonder if other manufacturers will take note here? The molded grip is very comfortable! Expect to get around 20+ FPE with this pistol in .25 caliber. I love that Hatsan is conservative with their specs! When I first got into adult airgunning back in the late 80's a 20 FPE airgun was considered the king of magnums!

Things I liked:

WARNING!!!!!!!! DO NOT PURCHASE THIS GUN!!!!!!

Things I would have changed:

Get a Umarex Notos unless you want to waste your money for a hunk of cheap brittle plastic that doesn't shoot.

What others should know:

I received the the gun and initial inspection, it's seemed as if it was a used item. Closer inspection, I noticed it had tooling marks all through the barrel and was seeping oil through the receiver. First shots confirmed that the barrel was indeed damaged. Pellets were erratic and it was impossible to sight in with stock sights. Would not hit paper 10 feet away. Sent in for a replacement, which was a huge pain. The replacement arrived and behold, the gun was in the same exact condition. They advertise the gun having a top picc/dovetail rail, but it is just a faux rail. The picatinny slots are too small and the dovetail is too deep to mount anything on it. When trying to mount on the pic rail, they immediately broke off with next to no pressure. After contacting Kadden at HatsanUSA and explaining it's condition, I asked for refund and immediately was denied. I was told that I modified the gun (the pieces that broke). The then offed to work on it for $50/hr. This gun is a scam STAY AWAY

    Things I liked:

    This is an awesome little gun! A lot of bang for the buck, if you know what I mean. I wanted a pistol. I got a pistol and a carbine. I love the adjustable/detachable stock. The grip feels great in the hand. Comes with a couple mags. Has a single shot tray! Sights aren't bad but it's getting a better optic for carbine mode. The trigger feels great. Mine came with a male-to-male 1/2 20 adapter for a moderator, cool! No leaking issues and a breeze to fill. Just pop off the foster fitting dust cover, unscrew the lower cylinder end cap and fill her up. Didn't need the included extended QD. Taking into consideration it only has a 7" barrel it's an accurate gun with good ammo. It's easy to carry around in the field and hold enough air for plenty of shots for an outing. Six mags in the sweet spot from 80cc. I only fill it to 225 BAR so the first shot lands where I want it to every time, love it.

    Things I would have changed:

    Ditch the 11mm for a picatinny rail and the mags are a little fiddly but not the worst for sure. They are kind of small so...

    What others should know:

    The lower air cylinder was loose on mine out of the box. I just backed it off, checked the O-ring for any damage, greased up the O-ring with some silicone grease and screwed it back on to the gun. I filled it up to 250 BAR and leak tested it with some soapy water. All is well in the leak dept.

    Things I liked:

    Decent fit can’t wait to sight it in.

    Things I would have changed:

    The gauge didn’t/doesn’t work (new out of the box), I have a compressor that has a working gauge. QC should have caught this before it shipped out in my humble opinion. It needs a holster.

    What others should know:

    Still pending my final testing.

    Things I liked:

    This packs a punch for an air pistol. Got the .25 caliber & set it up with a red dot / side mount flashlight. I live in a rural area. Invasive & pests are everywhere. So far I have put down large field rats & European doves. I use K-hornet pellets- accuracy is great. It’s become a favorite. I rigged a sling & when out in the property it’s on my shoulder. This is a compact accurate package. My tiny wife loves it as it is compact & easy to use with plenty power for an air pistol . I imagine that I will purchase a couple more in different calibers, gift for the son & one to keep handy in the barn.

    Things I would have changed:

    Make it easier to fill. Truly a struggle to remove the hose after filling. Some type of suppressor.

    What others should know:

    Get spare clips - get a compressor. These are a blast to shoot. Get plenty pellets!!

    Things I liked:

    This is my second try at a Hatsan Jet II. Again, absolutely in love with the ergonomics...super comfy carbine,very light. Can't beat the price, sort of.

    Things I would have changed:

    It can fire a projectile in the general direction of a target, but this is now the second Jet II that has issues. This Jet II cannot hit a dollar bill twice at 10yds. This is after being thoroughly cleaned, using a known good scope and a rest. If you got a Hatsan Jet II and it is working well for you consider yourself lucky...apparently, I am not. I have a hard time believing all the positive reviews online for the Jet II...it doesn't seem likely that I just happened to get two lemons.

    What others should know:

    Don't waste your time and money. It is a shame, this gun fits like a glove. I wish Hatsan had put a little more effort into this. I am grateful PyramydAIR has a generous return policy.

    Things I liked:

    I love the form factor of the Jet II, I love the feel and how ergonomic it is. I love the price. It doesn't shoot straight, but it is consistent if you can figure out how to aim it.

    Things I would have changed:

    1) It does not shoot straight. I have already had my first Jet II replaced by PyramydAIR, and it has exactly the same problem. It shoots so far low and to the left that no amount of scope shimming can compensate. I think this is because the barrel cowl isn't straight so when you mount the scope it doesn't line up. Regardless, brand new, out of the box, a nearly unusable product. 2) It is cheaply made. Yes, it is only $250, but I would have paid more for a better made version of this. I am kinda shocked and will likely stay away from Hatsan in the future.

    What others should know:

    I returned my original Hatsan Jet II for a replacement, but the replacement had the same issue. Maybe this is a bad run or quality control missed something. Regardless, dealing with PyramydAIR is always a pleasure.

    Things I liked:

    Was looking for a portable carbine/pistol conversion that's powerful yet small enough to fit in my hiking pack. This fits the bill. Came with 2 magazines, replacement o rings, a fill adapter, and a moderator adapter. Filled it and took it out to test as soon as I got it. 3/4 inch groups at 25 feet. For me, Hatsan products have usually been hit or miss. But this one was a bullseye. It will be my pack gun for backup, my main gun is a Notos when hiking the back country. But this is a good emergency backup. I'm impressed with the power.

    Things I would have changed:

    The sights could be lower, and a moderator would be a nice addition to the in box accessories bundle. Bigger magazine capacity. I do have a few spare sortie mags, and they fit great, so I'm not really worried.

    What others should know:

    I hear a lot of complaints about inaccuracies, this can be remedied by cleaning and/or polishing the barrel, as a lot of new airgun barrels are filthy from the manufacturing process.

    Things I liked:

    The size and weight, good accuracy at 15 yards but falls off fast at distance.

    Things I would have changed:

    Larger mags, better shot count, to have two pressure tubs it should hold its air better.

    What others should know:

    I have several Hatsan's PCP's and they all are very good, this one however I, to do all over again would not by, way to much money.

    Things I liked:

    Hard to say what I like about it. Received the gun and aired it up right away to find a leak. This is my second Jet 2, my first Jet 2 also had malfunction, so I returned it. Unfortunately, this second one was leaking, and I will be returning it for good. (Never even got to shoot it/sight it in...) Love how small it is, stock attachment can be taken off by clips.

    Things I would have changed:

    Bigger tank for more rounds... I get it, it's made to be small & lightweight but not really worth it having to air up after 3 mags, 4th mag is pushing it- lower FPS.

    What others should know:

    Don't get me wrong. I have friends who owned this Jet 2, I've shot it and its accurate. Just my luck to received two bad ones in a roll.

    Things I liked:

    Things I like, a little over 20 ft lb of energy, 30 rounds plus per fill, easy trigger adjustment, flip up open sights.

    Things I would have changed:

    I would like to be able to change the grip to a vertical smooth sided grip as found on a 1911.45.

    What others should know:

    I find the jet2 starting out at 250 bar will give me 30 shots and still be at 125 bar, with a 25.39 jsb pushed at 623 ft per second equals 21.88 ft pounds of energy. Most of my shooting is inside of 30 yards at that distance 3/4 in bulls eye are easily achievable. Has 50 yd a 16 oz soda can has no Escape. I lightened up the trigger and it still has a little creep, but that is so soft has to be easy to pull with a clean and predictable break. Also if you decide you want more than six shots in your magazine I have found that the Hatsan sortie magazines fit beautifully thus giving me 10 rounds per mag three mags per fill. This one is a keeper.

    Things I liked:

    I actually prefer the use of polymers for basic construction (when practical) and I believe Hatsun did a great job designing and building this model! I will have more to add, once I've had time to put it thru it's paces, and that is why I only gave the gun a 3 on accuracy. From review of YouTube films, written reviews and personal experience, I have no doubt that this little shooter will be more than accurate enough.

    Things I would have changed:

    The only changes I would make would be to alter the size/shape of the grip. While I like the style, my hands are XL and I find the grip to be too small for me. I'll get used to it and will make it work for me. Again, for the price, the Jet II covers all the bases!

    What others should know:

    I got the best price and free shipping from Pyramyd - no need to look anywhere else!

    Things I would have changed:

    The way Hatsan USA deals with warranty issues.

    What others should know:

    I contacted Hatsan USA by phone and email due to my purchase being past 60 days, so PA would not deal with it. Took them several days to respond by email and still no phone call or resolution to my warranty issue. I didn't like questions being asked one at a time with days between for answered emails and Hatsan USA needs to fix this problem that one phone conversation would have fixed. Shane at Hatsan can't use a phone I guess so it jacks up and extends the timeframe it takes to get anything done with warranty at Hatsan USA. After this experience I will never buy a Hatsan again and will more then likely get rid of the ones I have. May ditch PA as well as they should have handled the issue from the get go. Also Shane will not respond to my emails because they sent me a How was your experience with Hatsan return and I laid it out. He didn't like it I guess. So now I have a expensive paperweight.
