Hatsan 125 Air Rifle, Black Synthetic Stock

Has a sleek & rugged feel. It's accurate and quiet. I find the open sights easy to use. I'm comfortable with the scope and rings it came with. The automatic safety and its location. The Quattro trigger of course.

The weight & length. The access hole to the smaller trigger adjustment screws could be a little more to the front so that you don't have to reach the most forward screw at an angle. The fact that you could see the spring under the gun. Being that I will use this for hunting, I will have to be very careful not to get debri inside.

This gun is basically the less expensive version of the 125 Sniper. I was hitting good groups at 25yds straight out of the box with the open sights. I was dialed in in less than 15 shots, with two different pellets (lead and PBA). I will be using this rifle for hunting and am considering using the open sights or a 3x red dot. Definitely satisfied and will be purchasing more Hatsan air rifles. Will be wrapping it with camo cloth in the field for hunting purposes and also to protect the exposed spring from getting dirty.

Nothing

Better QC

The safety broke after about 150 or so shots. There was no tapper at the breach and I wonder about the crown. The rear sights fell off and shot everywhere at 15 yrd. If you by one have PA check it out

The power of this gun is incredible. The quality of the action is superb. Quattro trigger is great.

The stock is thin and flimsy at the butt. Mine cracked at the upper recoil pad attachment screw after about 10 shots due to the heavy recoil of this gun. The scope that comes with it is completely useless. I wasted 2 days chasing scope settings, then finally gave up and replaced the scope with an AimPoint 2.5 - 7 power scope and all has been well ever since. I wish the breech seal was an "o"ring type instead of the sleeve type that it is. The breech seal does not last very long and you will not find anything in your garage or at the local hardware store to "get you by" so order extras .

This is the hardest gun of any kind to shoot accurately that I have ever shot. Don't get me wrong, the gun itself is very accurate, it is just very difficult to shoot it and be consistant. Hold is everything. The less you touch this gun while shooting, the tighter your groups will be. Easier said than done with a rifle that weighs nearly 10 lbs. If you try to manhandle this rifle, it will shoot all over the map!

Unequaled power and accuracy in this price range

Scrap the scope. Mine lasted about 75 shots

After receiving my rifle I immediately tore it down and replaced the crappy factory piston seal with the aftermarket one PA sells so I wouldn't have to worry about it not performing when hunting. IMHO this rifle is just as accurate as my RWS with a whole lot more power. Surprisingly, the learning curve for a rifle with this much power was not very steep. I actually got bored stacking pellets at 25 yards and moved it out to 50 and was shooting 1.5" groups at that range. As others have said this rifle loves the .25 jsb exact kings and throws them with authority, remaining on target even in gusty cross winds. If you buy this rifle, please do not be afraid to take it apart, it is one of the easiest ones to work on, and replace the piston seal, plenty of vids on youtube about it. I am sure the bad reviews for the 125 series are because of a bad piston seal, mine was crap when I got it. Still waiting for PA to ship my new chrony and will post stats when I get it.

After a very extensive researching effort, I continually kept coming too the 125 .25 as my break barrel gun of choice. I could hardlywait for the gun too arrive and at 40, felt like a kid again with so much excitement! Once the day FINALLY got here, I was shaking with excitementa as I opened the very well packaged box. I didnt even wait too mount the scope and thanks to the very well made open Sights I was able too blast a couple of shots immediately. This gun literally made me shake with the amount of authority and power it displays. Accurate within a 1.5" open sighted out the gates. With it being almost dark I begrudgingly had to wait till the next day to shoot. With the quality of the few shots I was able to fire, I had a hard time sleeping that night. Next morning I took the hatsan to work and first shot sounded off. Subsequent shots were slow enough too see and wouldnt penetrate the target. My heart broke when pyramid told me the piston seal was probably broken. Awesome gun bes

With the seals being turkishor whatever non American place makes them, perhaps look into some way to resolve that. I invested several days of researching the gun I wanted. I was not disapointed when everything was working out of the box. My heart broke knowing I will have to wait more weeks to enjoy the gun I reallywas confident and excited to get. Pyramid is beyond awesome with there customer service and replacement policy. This time im optingfor the piston seal upgrade to a more durable seal. I would change the seal in retrospect.

If your in the hunt for a power full take down breakbarrel, the hatsan 125 is crazy powerful and accurate. Thats out of the box. Cant wait too get my rifle back with the seal upgrade! Pyramid Air is years apart from the other companies as far as service goes. My disapointment was easily tuned down by working with their customer service reps.

Powerful and accurate. Good trigger. Weaver rail welded on the barrel.

Takes practice to shoot this well, even with the gas piston.
It's a good rifle for hunting and enjoyable and challenging to shoot.

Power, barrel quality

For sure a locking mechanism that you have to engage to break the barrel.

My honest opinion is save your $$$s and go for an hw 77 or hw 80. more money I know, but 100 times the quality. apart from the barrel the rest of this is junk. After loading mine around 20 30 shots later, a slight bump under the stock with my supporting hand while ready to shoot caused the barrel to break slightly. Or just shaking it a little bit, the barrel would droop and break slightly,causing the pellet to to go i don't know where. after loading every time before I fire, checking if the barrel is still closed was a real pain. I know I know $200 only, but really SAVE UP and get something decent, I sent it back as it dangerous.

A lot of stuff! This gun is an absolute beast! I am 5' 5" and 120 lbs and still have a bit of trouble cocking this gun. I like the power. Havent had a chance to shoot targets yet

the motion of cocking the gun is a bit rough.

dont buy a cheap scope, this gun will destroy it.

This is a hard hitting gun,lots of power.Well built and heavy.

I would probably have preferred a wooden stock but its what it is.

The accuracy is not the best but I am not blaming the gun I am over 65 and my hold isn't what it used to be.

The gun fits me pretty good, good feel, good balance. I like it's power (now that is working correctly)

Better quality check from factory.

I bought this gun (.25) caliber, and the first shot was so so, then they started to get so slow they were bouncing off the back stop.
I sent the gun back no problems (thanks)
I received a replacement gun, which had a "little" more punch at first, but after 50 shots it was falling off greatly again, and there was no penetration into the backstop. Instead of returning this gun again, I ordered a replacement piston seal, and tore down the gun to find the factory seal torn where the groove in the receiver- action is for the spring compressor rod.
I deburred those edges internally, put in the seal, and it is doing great, and shoots Thru my backstop now!!
So, 2 guns in a row with bad seals I wonder how many left the factory that way.
