For the money, this is a great pistol. It is hard hitting and accurate. The trigger works well.

I have a nice collection of replica handguns. This is by far my favorite. While not a replica this is an amazing pistol it shoots much harder than any other handgun in my collection. It is not easy to cock, but it's not too hard to cock either. It feels very well balanced also it has substantial weight to it. This pistol in my opinion is the perfect break-barrel shooter. It is rated over 700 fps I know I would not want to be shot with this big fellow! Overall I just love the Hatsan model 25 supercharger. Based on the shots I have taken, this thing could be lethal so be careful. As I said earlier this is my favorite pistol. I'm very pleased with everything about it.

I would not change anything except adding a rotating cylinder would be nice.

Get it the minute it's in stock cause they sell fast!

Pleasantly pleased with it. It is really great with rat control on the farm!

The grip is a little small for my hand. Don't know what you could do about it.

Buy it! It's awesome!

Accurate and powerful. This pistol is sturdy.

The power comes with a difficult pump.

Great value.

Sturdy and accurate

Cocking is stiff but doable

Excellent toy

Long barrel, adjustable trigger length of pull and weight of pull, comfortable grip, decent sights.

Haven't. used it enough to decide what I would change, if anything

Comfortable grip, well balanced, interchangeable muzzle break/cocking aid, the high velocity delivery, and the overall look of the gun or its aesthetic. I have not tried adjusting the trigger. It has two screws for adjusting the amount of force required and the travel distance of the trigger right behind the trigger and there is a hole in the bottom of the trigger guard where it meets the grip for easy screwdriver access. I may fiddle with those settings eventually but right now I am still breaking the gun in. I'm at a little under 50 rounds fired at this point and I am satisfied with the pull right out of the box. (January 25 2021) The sights needed minimal adjustment out of the box to get them centered on the point of impact at 10 yards. The safety auto engages each time its cocked. I'm a big fan of safety. I like what you got! Good job!

My gun did NOT have a gold plated trigger as advertised. The picture on the box it came in had a gold trigger. Its not that I dislike the black plastic trigger, but when you spend money you want the thing in the box to match the picture on the outside. The rear sight. I would close the gap and make it from steel. Only on a sunny day or under bright lights do the fiber optic open sights truly do their job. They stand out to the point where you can just focus on the target and still clearly see the green and red dots. Evening/nighttime or cloudy conditions make easy acquisition for precision shooting a little more difficult or strenuous on the eye. I need to adjust my focus from the rear sight to the front sight to the target and back again several times double checking the gaps to center that front post. I'm looking to add a red dot scope despite what reviews say: the recoil reduction system on this gun the mounts are gonna move down the rail. I weld and a couple tacks will fix that.

You should know that my gun does not fire if cocked and left for several hours. I don't know the minimum amount of time it takes for this misfire effect to happen. I'll find out. The gun fires reliably if you load, shoot, load, and shoot. Sometimes I leave the gun loaded over night. The next day I pick it up, aim, squeeze, & nothing. Not even a click. I re-cock it, aim, squeeze, & nothing. Re-cock it for the second time (3rd cock total) and it will fire. The energy is still in the system though. During those 2 re-cocks. I didn't have a tight enough grip on the gun the first time this happened and it jumped out of my hands landing safely in the grass. I shit you not, when the barrel gets to the bottom of the stroke all of a sudden it wants to close. Now I hold on tight anticipating this and all is well. Somewhat frustrated with having to cock it two additional times to iron out this wrinkle, if I was hunting and that blew my chances at nailing some varmint I'd be pissed.

Accuracy, balance, fun to shoot.

E everything is perfect

No need to

Buy plenty of pellets

Excellent, Excellent, Excellent! This Hatsan air pistol is very well made and is quite accurate. The recoil compensation system works very well with little felt recoil. I consistently get 1inch groups at 15 yards shooting off hand using a two handed hold.

Nothing

The power this puts out for a little over a hundred dollars is exceptional. The sights are easy to set requiring no tools to adjust .It shoots pretty consistant but shooting it as a pistol, its hard to get a tight group because of it weight and awkward length.

for an extra 10 bucks definitely buy the supertact model because it is very uncomfortable to shoot as a pistol.You have to hold this beast like a carbine springer with an artillery hold due to its weight, length and kick.

The thumb rest is solid rubber and can be shaved off with a razor knife and sanded smooth with #100 grit sand paper if your a left handed shooter. Also,this is the hardest air gun to cock on the planet! Be prepared to build some massive Arnold Guns cause it will "pump you up"

Very powerful springer

Nothing

I tried flaring the skirts on my pellets and that increased my velocity. With Predator alloys 11.75gr. I got 630fps. When I flared the skirt, 644fps. That's 10.81 FPE. With lead, JSB 13.43gr. I got 485fps. With a flared skirt, 544fps. That's 8.84 FPE. I flared the skirts by pressing them into the car charger plug. Pics attached.

I've had this gun for 4 years plus now. Replaced breech seal a year ago because it was getting flush. Have tried a scope on it but whatever mount I used it slipped. Just use the stock sites I feel. I see that pyramid feels it only shoots around 450 fps with hobby 11.9 rws. Recently got a chrony and was surprised it shot avg of 525 fps with the above pellet

Weaver mount should have been standard, dovetails are useless for the staggered mount I used with 2x20 pistol scope

Gun is heavy and long, cocking is not hard even though it is stated as having 58 lbs cocking force. This gun is a plinker I feel 20 yds max. Fairly accurate with pellets 14g on down. Since I bought my marauder pistol .22, I really don't use it any more. If your serious about airgunning and want to shoot a pistol get a marauder pistol instead

Size for my hand

Nothing at this time

Power and recoil absorbing grip. Fairly accurate when shooting pellets it likes (R-10 heavies) otherwise it can spray ones not to its taste (Beeman coated HPs).

Two open holes on top, just in front of rear sight, that allow dirt and other matter into spring/piston. They are threaded so assume they are for a scope base?? I filled them with a couple small screws.

Large, heavy pistol that takes some effort to cock.

I had to shoot this gun a lot just to get it calm. Then I tested velocity and it was low 400-450. Then I placed some thread beneath the breech seal and now I'm getting 520-540 with RWS Super H Points. That's a 14.2 great. Accuracy is good if I do my part. I was able to adjust the trigger to a point that works well but I have no way to measure weight.

I would like the sights to be steal.

Even after fixing the breech seal, JSB's will only give me 430 fps. I think they're not tight and don't allow pressure to build before leaving the barrel.

Mine is in .177 caliber. Nice looking pistol by the way and well made. Very hard to cock in the beginning it will get better with use but it does require some effort. The sights are very good. Easy to sight in and adjust, the fiber optic provides excellent view. I used AccuPell (7.9 gr) pellets at 10 meters distance. The test took place inside my house and that was the longest distance available. I shot five pellets groups averaging 1.5" consistently. The occasional flyer here and there but most pellets stayed close to each other. This is not bad grouping considering the fact that the pistol is brand new and will take many shot before setting in. My feeling is that better groups could be achieved with a little practice and more use of the gun. The trigger was very smooth and came adjusted right. I definitely like the trigger pull. Overall, I think I got a lot gun and fun for the money. I recommend it if you don't mind the cocking effort needed.

Nothing. It's a good pistol and an excellent purchase for the money. At least mine is.

I would recommend testing different pellet brands until you get the best groups with your pistol/pellet combo. This pistol is powerful!

Good power for .22, nice design, dove tail grooves fit a UTG 11mm adapter nicely. I mounted a 2 power scope and shot it a handful of times with no problem. However the stock rear sight screw vibrated loose and fell out! I'll have to Loctite that.

Dump the so called "XRS-Recoil Reduction System". When I squeeze the trigger and it fires, the entire trigger group slides rear ward with the action throwing off my grip. It may be just how I hold the gun but it when it goes off my barrel has a noticeable shift to the right. I'm going to epoxy my "XRS" to make it inactive.

As stated in the description, the velocity is no where near 650 fps with .22 pellets. I used Crossman 14.3 HP pellets to test it against my Bone Collector Bull Whisper IGT and there's a very noticeable difference between the two which is to be expected. But at 30 feet it was quite effective on empty beer cans.
