    Hatsan Thinking of owning a Hatsan jet 1

    I own one and added the extra tube to convert it to a Jet 2. I used it mostly for 20 - 35 yard backyard pesting and it served me well for that purpose. I also own a Notos which is a huge step up, like others have stated. The Jet is LOUD without a moderator so once you add the cost of the mod...

    N/A PCP for neighbor

    I 2nd the Notos but get aftermarket magazines. The OEM mags suck!

    Cricket II review - chrony and shot strings

    Resurrecting an old thread but curious as to how the Cricket 2s have held up. I recently bought the Smooth CF .22 version and love it so far!

    Kalibrgun Cricket 2 Hammer Spring Adjustment

    I found out the hard way. Lol! Got it back in though and yes the speed dropped to the low 800s.

    Kalibrgun Cricket 2 Hammer Spring Adjustment

    Thanks for the response. Trying it now. Do I need to fear that I will completely unscrew this? If I do, is it simply a matter of screwing it back in?

    Kalibrgun Cricket 2 Hammer Spring Adjustment

    Need your help, AGN family. I recently received a Cricket 2 Smooth .22 and so far I'm loving it. Out the box it's shooting the JSB 18.1s at 964. I haven't really been able to test the accuracy due to my space limitations at home but I'm thinking that these may be flying too fast. When I've tried...

    Umarex New Zelos Inbound!

    I prefer the easy rotation of this aftermarket magazine over rotating the plastic cover on the stock mag. Necessary, no, but is much in this hobby necessary?

    Umarex New Zelos Inbound!

    I tried it but I have a custom 500mm barrel with no baffles. The shroud basically ends at the threaded 1/2x20 adapter so there's no extra space for baffles. . While it Buck Rail's moderator did reduce the shot report significantly, I found it a bit quieter with the DonnyFL Ryu moderator with 2...

    Umarex New Zelos Inbound!

    I have a .25 Zelos that @Firewalker customized for me. A few hundred rounds with the stock magazines and I haven't had any issues although I do also have a Big Air Precision magazine as well (it adds a nice pop of green!). Buck Rail makes a really nice modular moderator that should work well...

    New to PCP

    This is beyond a rabbit hole! A few years ago, I needed something to deal with a squirrel infestation in my attic. Quick, cheap solution was a Daisy 880 from Walmart. It performed the job well. I should've stopped there but these forums! :ROFLMAO:

    Replaced the moderator with the DonnyFL Ryu (added 2 extra baffles to quiet it down a tad more) which shortened the OAL from 36" to about 34". Also added an offset scope mount to help with the ridiculously short eye relief on the Discovery scope.
