Hatsan Flashpup QE PCP Air Rifle

Love the adjustable trigger and the compact design

I would add the hammer adjustment on the outside that way you can dial in power for different situations quicker.

My only complaint was that I received 2 different magazines. One was for my 25 I order and the other was for a 22. Customer service said they would sent another 25 magazine but still haven't received. This kinda made me second guess another purchase because I might not get everything as described.

It's very accurate and easy to use.

Forget the wood stock and go with the plastic one. It's pretty until you hold it. You can damage the wood by lightly pressing your fingernail into it its so soft. I put a coat of polyurethane on mine which has helped a little but not much.

Pyramydair sold me a 3 year old model. The air tanks have a 10 year shelf life. I was pretty annoyed about that. If this was a more expensive airgun I would have been pretty mad.

My first experience buying from them. I'll try buying pellets from them and see how that goes but I can't see purchasing another airgun in the future.

I like it for its light weight and accuracy. I have only got to shoot one so far but I like the way it handles and it don't take long to fill it back up. After doing a little tuning it's powerful.it will work very good for what I bought it for.

It's not a deal breaker but it would be nice if it had a side swing out bolt like the synthetic has.

If you want a short light weight gun that's got enough power for critters you won't go wrong with this gun. I got the 25 cal .may get the 22 cal later on.

Love the fact I can get y hem to make sure gun is working before it's sent

If I only had more money to buy more pcps

Love how for a few dollars more you can get them to set it up for you shoot it and get it halfway zeroed you know

Nothing really it came time I mean it was good

I think that pyramid is is much better store than maybe like air gun air gun Depot I mean because of the fact that they will the gun up for you oh and you can also have order more than one thing get a little bundle deal so yeah definitely recommend pyramid

Build quality, power and accuracy are all fantastic. Incredibly easy to hold steady due to the compact design. Very happy I ordered the 10 shots for $10 especially after getting screwed by Amazon who sold 2 used defective guns as new. Lesson learned.

The 22 cal is louder than I thought it would be out of the box but it was shooting just under the speed of sound, tuned it down and it's quieter now. The magazine wobbles when it's installed but just being picky.

Get the 10 for 10, well worth it. This thing packs a heck of a punch.

Oh wow, where to begin! I'm NO stranger to projectile weapons, owning everything from flintlocks to precision rifles. I'm VERY IMPRESSED with my Flashpup! Fit & finish are great, balance is flawless, accuracy is, for an airgun, superb (compared to my Anschutz 1847 Fortner bolt Biathlon rifle, which gets one hole in the paper at 50M, it's not as accurate). At 50M, I can expect a 3/4 inch group, maybe a little better depending on the charge. When you compare the Flashpup to the Anschutz, the 1847 cost almost $4,000, and the Flashpup is not quite as accurate. IF you cut the distance in half, I'd say, as a competition shooter for years, yes, it's in the ballpark. Not quite as accurate, but the Flashpup will hold her own! In terms of quality, the trigger on the Flashpup is comparable to my Anschutz, the wood stock is fantastic, balance is superb, accuracy is great, the gun's quiet and a joy to shoot. If you're thinking of getting one, DO IT!!

I'd lose the bipod rail, and add some studs for a sling. Also extend the bolt handle and make it a little larger, along with adding spacers to extend the stock, to change the LOP. It's a little short for me.

If you're thinking of getting one, I wouldn't hesitate! Great little bullpup design, accurate as all get-out, and it can be filled with a floor pump. it's a workout for an old guy like me (74), but it sure does fill!

Looks Feel

This gun is very dangerous. The gun I got from this site will randomly fire as I push a pellet forward with the bolt. that's with safety engaged.

I was super impressed with the feel of this little rifle. Despite it feeling like a sturdy, solid chunk of wood, most of the weight sits on your shoulder. It's light as a feather up front and feels phenomenal in the hands. As for the fit and finish, the wood is quite soft, so the finish is going to very easily scratch and scuff. There were a few places where the stock could have used some touchups before being sent out by Hatsan, like sloppy gluing around the buttpad and poor sanding around the wooden trigger guard. Overall, for the price, the finish was totally fine by me. Looks sharp and feels great in the hands. Very quiet, too. It's absolutely backyard friendly, and it's hand pump friendly as well. Using a hand pump to take it from the yellow back into the green only took five minutes or so. One other thing - the pressure gauge is readable from the side of the gun. This is smart design, because nothing makes a gun guy queasier than staring down a barrel. The trigger was stellar!

The placement of the bolt is terrible, and the two FlashPups I went through were very stiff. The first felt like someone had poured a cup of sand in the internals and threw it in the box. I'm sure it would have cleaned up just fine, but I didn't want to chance voiding the warranty in the first few days before any major problems might have showed up. The fill port has a small plug that's used to keep dust and debris from getting in the tank, but it's a cheap plastic dowel with an o-ring in the center. It is not attached to the gun, and it would be easy to lose. You'll also need an adapter to connect your pump to the gun. Note that the Hatsan fill probe is NOT NPT threaded. PA has an AirVenturi adapter available (currently), or find one elsewhere. It's a 1/8" BSPP Female to 8mm Male QD. The rifle desperately needs sling swivels. I'd like to see it regulated. These also desperately need some quality control with their barrels and/or optics rails, but more on that below.

I went through two of these. The first was stacking even the Crosman Premiere HPs at ~20yd from a bench rest. Some heavier H&N Barracudas performed even better. Trouble was, with an optically centered scope at that distance, I was hitting 5.5" to the right. I ran out of adjustment on two scopes trying to get it zeroed. Big disappointment, because the trigger on it was right up there with a custom match trigger I have in my .308. That FlashPup was returned, and the second one arrived a week later. The action was much smoother, but the trigger was mushy. PA also neglected to do the 10-for-10 test on it that I'd paid for on the first one. This one was hitting only 3.5" right at ~20yd, and it took a full 1 1/4 rotations on the windage turret of my Hawke to get it to zero. Unfortunately, while it was fairly accurate, it was not precise. The 21gr Barracudas performed best out of it with a 1" group at 20 yards from the bench. 5 MOA makes this a plinker, but not a dependable hunting setup.

I waited to do the review so I can test the gun. It's a .177cal and its a great little gun very accurate with JSB Exact Beast Diabolo 16.20 gr. It's shoots the JSB Hades 10.34 gr pretty good but not like the Beast. I get 4 magazines out of one tank of air so about 56 shots not bad.

Nothing

Great gun for the price.
