At last! I have a good cheek weld Flash QE

[JimNM]

I have not enjoyed the Hatsan Flash QE much due to the low comb combined with the extra high scope rings required by the magazine placement. I hate having to hunt for the right cheek position.

On a whim, i ordered a comb sleeve from the big A(mazon). Viola! Suddenly the gun fits my face. I was using a carved up pool noodle. That was just too much red neck and I was embarrassed.

Now I'm off to shoot'em good

Jim,

Would you post some photos? How much of a prize did you put?

 

[JimNM]

Sure will when I get home. The gun is shooting like a champ! The Hatsan vortex pellets are shooting even better than the crosman premier hollow point. Hatsan vortex pellets are made by jsb, iirc. the Quattro trigger on the flash QE is breaking in, and is getting better and better. I am pretty excited to get this gun out and shoot some varmints with it.



I was at about 13.00 delivered for one unit.

The front two Velcro straps are a bit too long, so I wrapped them twice around the bottom of the stock before I stuck them down, and the rear strap hooked to the middle Velcro. 30 seconds to fiddle it into place.

Wow that is in fact a high rise. Good to see that you found a way to get the flash to fit you for a comfortable hunt.

The son and I went shooting. I with my first choice Kral and he with the Flash QE. Guess who is the proud new owner of the flash? That boy shot me 2:1 on pigeons today, on his first time with the gun and scope. Just had to tell him that 15y and 40y are crosshair hold. He did the rest.. He likes it a lot. It made his day when I gave him the pink slip to that gun. Hope he will shoot with me more often.

That sure looks to be comfy to put against the cheek.

That's just what I needed for my Flash QE, thanks!

So important. Had to install one on my springer. What a huge difference.

When will the manufacturers wise up !! Most of us use a scope !! There is practically no cheek pieces and should be called chin rests ..

I can see it now-- guys will be taking field naps on their comfy combs... Zzzzzzz!

I have one of those in a black. Bought it for one of my powder burners and never really liked it cause it put my weld too high. So it’s only use was when I first tried it. If anyone wants it, just pay for shipping and it’s yours.

This is the one I found that works best on my Marauder, along with all my Remington and Tikka powder burners. Has a slight rise on the cheek for perfect cheek weld, and a zippered pouch to carry spare magazines, Allen wrench tools, and a pull cord to clean the barrel if need be. They are well built, and for the life of me do not know why Midway discontinued it. It was actually Midways own product. If I knew it was gonna be discontinued I would have bought a couple more for just in case future guns, lol
