Hatsan Mod 65

Very solid and well made! Very nice wood and stock finish! Good accurate rifle and tight groups o targets. Didn't care for scope that came with it, but replaced it quickly!

Better scope than provided with rifle.

I'm 75 years old and it is a little hard for me to cock, but shouldn't be a problem for younger and stronger shooters!

the stock is beautiful, the weight of the gun is nice, decent sights.

build the gun with better parts. Mine literally broke and wouldn't cock and a part near the trigger literally broke in half was a piece of metal but must have been cheesy parts.

i guess its a fragile gun? Parts are kinda cheesy broke with not even 1000 shoots threw it

The Model 65 is a great value. It shoots well and has a great stock. The cheek rest is just awesome. The gun is light and points nicely.

I like it. It's not the fanciest rifle but it is a workhorse. It could have a better finish and better sights but I really can't complain about the rifle as it was shipped.

Pyramid Air customer service is great. You can't go wrong buying from them. They have a rock solid guarantee policy and they treat you right.

This is my second Hatsan Model 65. I had an issue with the trigger on the first one after about 5000 shots and three months. Hatsan repaired the rifle and had it back to me within a week. I was so impressed I bought another one. This is truly a good pellet rifle. It is accurate, tough and won't break your budget. And I know from experience that if you have trouble with one they will take care of it with high velocity.

This gun is tough on scope mounts. It kicks hard. You need to leave the factory scope stop in place and use a cantilever mount to get proper eye releif. The dovetail is a lot wider than most "11mm" rails and most dovetail mounts don't fit well. I ruined a couple good mounting rails trying to get one to fit and not slip. I use the factory stop with the UTG universal dovetail picatinny adapter. It has lasted thousands of shots.

I like the thumbhole stock and cheek piece. The rifle fits good and operates smoothly. The trigger is the best trigger on an air rifle for its price.

I'm not crazy about the barrel shroud and "muzzle brake". It works fine but I would prefer a regular barrel (like the model 65) The sights are ok. They need better springs, more positive click stops. They work fine for ranges 50 yards and under, they just aren't a high quality iron sight. They are better than most other budget airguns. It's still noisy and "twangy" after 2000 shots. It buzzes. So does the model 65. It's shoots great. But it's not the sweetest shooting air rifle. The screw behind the trigger backs out fast. Loctite helps but the back screw on this rifle gets loose quickly. A closer fitting fine thread screw and better bearing in the stock would be a great improvement.

It's a great value. The stock is nice and the gun shoots fine. It's not crazy accurate but it's a great plinker. You can hit golf balls at 50 yards and a beer bottle at 100 no problem.

Unless you are into punching paper this rifle is probably all you will need. It handles well and is solidly built. With a good scope of equal value it makes a very good plinker or hunter. It has plenty of power and can probably be tuned to improve the buzzing and jumpy recoil.

Put a Phillips screwdriver in your pocket and tighten the rear screw every 30-40 shots and you will be happy with it.

Accurate. Quiet except for the mechanical noise of the piston. Light. Beautiful. You may want a better scope- but honestly the scope that comes with it is fine. I have no plans of replacing it.

I really can't think of anything to change that would not break the laws of physics (if you could magically make it a 90 FPE gun...) This airgun is that good and is that honest of a product.

I wanted another gun with its own powerplant (in this case a spring piston) for plinking and fun shooting that does not require lots more energy. Saves my compressor from working as often.
This product is as honest as it gets. I asked Pyramid Air staff to do the chrono and set scope $20 deal. The chrono numbers are honest for the advertising. Did not need useless hyper light pellets to get the numbers you see advertised.
Hatsan's customer service is almost nonexistent, so I trust Pyramid Air with Hatsan purchases to make sure the product is working correctly. Pyramid Air is amazing to buy from. Very well informed. Very polite. Will make "it right" when it is needed. I am not hunting with this gun- but if there is a nuclear/zombie apocalypse this is a perfect gun to live off irradiated squirrel meat. No need for a compressor. Will take small game at reasonable distances humanely. I can see hiding in my cave from the zombies and eating irradiated squirrel.

The short answer is everything. The stock is not only pretty but light and forms to your body well. The cocking effort is very manageable. Yes you will want a better scope but the one with it is just fine. Very accurate. The noise of the shot is very low, the mechanical noise of the piston generating the power is of course noticeable but not bad. The velocity is right on for the advertisement. I wanted a second decent spring piston powered gun for my yard to give my compressors a break on days Im just plinking. This gun is incredible. It does still have the power to hunt small game or pest control if thats what you want. Certainly dead on accurate to make that happen. The trigger is great out of the box. Very little creep. Fun and tons of awesome!

Oh you could say more power or this or that. Within what is reasonable for the mechanics and physics of a spring piston powered airgun this truly hit the goal of a well rounded gun. Hatsan did indeed make a gem and kept the price tag down.

Buy one.
I got bored and lit an old pumpkin on fire and shot a smile face into it. Certainly gave me joy after hours of yard work.

Everything! Solid build, Aesthetics, Trigger, Easy cocking, Stock, Pistol grip, Open sights, Manageable, moderate recoil and shooting cycle, Power balance, Weight, Accuracy. I've only cycled through about 100 pellets so far. After shooting magnum nitro pistons, this gun is lighter and easier to cock and a real joy to shoot. Mine loves JSB 15.89's clearly the best. Trigger is light in pull and barely any creep. Bag rested, military hold and using my UTG 3x9 scope - at 25 yards, getting .5" groups. At 50 yards, getting 1" groups. Both PB's after just 2 days of shooting! Looking forward to getting through the break in period and also trying at 75 and 100 yards.

Nothing, Maybe more descriptive owners manual.

I know this is a brand new gun on the market. I went for it and you get alot for the money for sure! Clean the barrel alot and check all screws before shooting.

Pretty accurate out of the box. I was surprised. Still only about 150 or so shots out of it. Using Crossman Premier Domed. Good value for the money.

Definitely going to upgrade to a better scope.

I think it's a excellent backyard target shooting or small game hunting rifle.
