Page 4 - Hatsan Flash QE Reviews

Amazing accuracy. I tuned my .25 down to shoot 760fps. Need only to fill to 180 bar, shoot 25 good consisstant shots down to 150bar, gun is pretty quiet. I got my 1900.00 dollar Edgun and the flash the same day, but I enjoy shooting the flash more, Its light weight and @ 30 yrds. It can give you one hole groups. If you only have a hand pump this is the gun you want, small cylinder easily filled. Im going to get a .177 and .22 to go with my .25. Even tuned down, Im thumping tree rats@ 40 yrd easily

Better single loader

Both of mine leaked when they dropped to 100bar. Sent the first one back for an exchange, second one did the same, but since I refill @ 150 I kept it because I tuned the trigger and hammer to shoot as good ad any high dollar pcp.

It's a powerhouse. Goes through 2 sheets of plywood at 50 yards. JSB seems to be the pellet of choice so far with the 25 grain getting quarter size groupings at 50 yards. 33 grain still packs a punch at 100 yards.....my first pcp and I hope to own many more Hatsan pcp rifles.

It needs a adjustable stock......I wish I had gotten the Flashpup and hope they offer a conversion stock in the future.

You can tune this bad boy to get a string of 10 shots at around 900fps with 25grain JSBs.........

Suprizingly accurate, light weight and plenty of power for small game. What I like is how fast Pyramid replaced my first Flash that had a leak. Within a week I had my second Flash that is working perfectly. I have 2 Edguns and a Vulcan that are not much more accurate.

Plastic single loader, the bolt is really hard to cock do to the heavy hammer spring.

A good rifle at the right price, And Pyramid has outstanding customer service.

Quiet, accuracy, weight. Haven't had a problem with this one. Like they said in the .25 after 10-15 top it off. I can get 20 no drop at 30 yds. Holds air, action gotten very smooth. No poi change after a couple weeks. Love it

Metal trigger, can mod after warranty.

It's a hard hitting gun, they make all kind of after market part. Will void warranty. Give it 100 to 200 to settle in. Mine was less than 100

I like everything about this pellet rifle.

Nothing

Yes just buy one.

Accurate, quiet, 27 shots for 25 cal per fill with 25 grain JBS, lightweight, good small game rifle Repeater ftw

The breech o ring, hard to replace

Great gun for the money, love it

Great, hard hitting and extremely accurate.

nada

Light weight and suprisingly accurate, At 30 yrds. In.25 one ragged hole.

More efficient silencer, smoother cocking bolt, its got a very stiff spring and feels gritty. The single shot loading tray is junk.A decent manual with good instructions and a diagram of gun and parts is really needed.

This gun is not quiet as advertised, your neighbors will hear you shooting. My Flash is leakimg after one day. The air is escaping from the breech and drains completely in a few minutes.Im returning for an exchange. For the price, its not a bad gun.

It works. Accuracy about 1/2" at 50 yds, and I still need to try different pellets. These were JSB King Heavy 33.95 gr. This is also with the Hatsan scope that came with the rifle. Trigger is pretty good, too.

Magazine doesn't fit in real precisely, would like it to feel more solid.

Weight and look and feel are great well made and durable. Shoots very accurate at 50 to 75 yards I can get a group that I can cover with a quarter completely. It goes through a 1/2 inch of solid season wood not pine but hard wood clean through at 50 yards. I use my nomad air compressor to fill it up and it takes 2 minutes and I am ready to shoot again. You can get 30 plus shots on one fill.

Nothing,,,

I have had no problems but allot of fun with it, reasonabley price to get anyone into pcp air guns.its a great introduction to pcp world....

Working on number 2, first one blew out transfer port after 150 shots. Pyramid air did well for replacement. Now number 2 isn't as accurate but can live with it. Gun works and takes a lot of work.

Feels cheap real cheap. After you get it right it would been cheaper for at44.

Stay away, much better guns for same price. Thinking about returning it for cash.

Weight, powerful, accuracy.

Send customers the updated magazines in exchange for the bad ones from initial shipments. QC these rifles for leaky cylinders before distribution to vendors.

Beware of possible issues with magazine performance for those who purchased before the improved mag.

What's not to like. This is my first purchase of a PCP Air Rifle. This Flash QE is very quiet and light weight. The accuracy is outstanding. I have the .25 cal. version, it has all the foot pounds you need for critters. It will easily dispatch a rodent, squirrel, groundhog, and even a coyote. Shoot placement comes easily with a mill dot scope. Practice, practice, practice; know where to hold at different yardage. This is a great gun to start out with if you want to try a PCP Air Rifle. Make sure you purchase one with a suppression system to reduce the report of the rifle. Without this you will get complaints. I love this rifle.

I would like to see if they could design the Hatsan Flash QE PCP Rifle to have a air cylinder you remove and put a fully charged cylinder in its place. The 165cc air cylinder be increased to a 200cc cylinder. You can get 20 full power shots the current set up before having to top off the cylinder to 200BAR, 2900psi. This is in my .25 cal. FLASH QE.

Not heavy, quiet, accurate: one hole groups at 15 yds., 1/2" at 40 yds.

Better quality control. Purchased 10 for $10, absolutely could not put gun on safe! Had to increase cutout on trigger guard by 1/8"+ to move lever to safe position! Bolt handle continually worked loose; fixed with Locktite

For the price, the gun shoots great, just needed a little tweaking! Leaks no air, 40 shots or more with no dropoff @ 40 yards! Shoots many different pellets well.

The Hatsan Flash QE .25 looks fantastic in person. This is a fantastic rifle and is my first PCP. I bought a hand pump from Amazon and I can fill this gun from 100 bar to 200 bar in 5 minutes. The scope that came with the gun was very quality. Gun sighted in in 5 shots. The last 3 in the same ragged whole. Extremely quiet. It almost sounds broken. Very accurate. Lightweight but rigid and sturdy. Came with tge correct fill probe and filling the gun was easy. I love the picatinny rail on the front. Very easy to steady when free handing

Nothing comes to mind

Fantastic first or last PCP. It loves H&N Silver points and H&N Grizzly pellets

This rifle is super quiet, light, accurate, reliable and fun as heck to shoot!

I wish it had studs preinstalled for a sling

Great gun and much quality for the price!

I received mine yesterday in .25 cal. Was not expecting it to be so quiet and dead on. Pulled 2 pellets stuck together out of target, that is how good this rifle really is.

Bigger air tank!

Worth every dollar.

.177. Basically a nice gun. It is shooting half inch groups at 25yds. After about 500 rounds. Good trigger.

Magazine is difficult to load, especially if one had large fingers and .177 pellets. The pellets load skirt first.

Basically a good gun if you are willing to put in a little work. The breech was rough and was shaving lead off the side of pellets. After polishing I did not have the problem. I disassembled the magazines and worked off the injection molding seams the were hanging up the skirts on the pellets. The primitive moderator needed rebuilding. Now it shoots good. It likes the 8.4gr. JSB Exacts and the 13.43gr. JSB Monster Diablos. Also, I had to shim up the gap on the bottom of the magazines. I got the old ones. I read that that issue has been resolved in the new magazines.

Light weight, incredibly accurate, very quiet, no problem filling with Hatsan hand pump (67 years old). everything works as advertised right out of the box. Free promotional offer scope works very well, two 12rd magazines included, excellent trigger from what I'm used to, no leaks, built-in Weaver bipod mount, comfortable stock that shoulders well, excellent value for the money, ....... everything.

The Hatsan Flash QE .22 price point proved too enticing so I finally pulled the trigger, and so glad I did! This PCP is like a quantum leap, an entirely different air rifle experience, and I'll never look back to a break barrel again. Humane head shots on red squirrels and chipmunks (instead of center-of-mass), at 30 yards or more, with no misses and instant kills. No more coming out of position to cock a rifle, or the fumbling around trying to load one pellet at a time, no more missed opportunities between shots. The hand pump is only a minor workpout, takes just a couple minutes and you're good to go another 30 rounds in .22 caliber. Using .22 caliber JSB Exact Jumbo pellets at 15.89 gr I can group 10 shots in a dime size circle at 30 yards. What more could someone want?

First and foremost accurate, accurate, accurate! In the .25 right out of the box shooting less than 1" groups at 35 yds with JSB King & MKII, Air Arms, Hornets, and H&N Hunter pellets. Super lite weight rifle and really fun to shoot! Also I love this mag over the standard Hatsan mag in that it is larger and therefore can handle a greater variety of pellets (Hornets, Polymags, etc). Next the trigger is excellent and it is very back yard friendly. Finally, while not in the power class of the more expensive (and much heavier) Hatsans, Bt65 and Nova, it will push pellets faster than any of the other airguns in it's class! (i.e. my dad can beat your dad :)

If I'm being picky I would mention the cocking stroke is a little 'clunky' which I believe is caused by the Mag fitting so loosely in the breach. The pellet has to 'find' its way into the breach and therefor causes the forward cocking stroke to have a slight catch. The only other small complaint is: Hatsan please provide a dust protecting plug for the fill port! I love my Flash and I want her to stay healthy!

This gun is not pellet picky! I went through my inventory and it liked them all! even the Predator GTO. The mag is pretty big so do yourself a favor and get High scope mounts. If you want you can get away with a $36 CVLife scope and still be a marksman!
