I saw this cool looking Hatsan but I cannot find it online? I am guessing this is a new model only released overseas right now? It looks cool, multi-shot magazine with decent power and shot count.

Looks very plastic

Interesting way of increasing the air volume in a pistol.

Looks a bit similar to the Reximex RP. And it appears Hatsan trying to one up Reximex with the additional cylinder.

I would just upgrade it with a laminate wood grip. What is cool is that it is 780 FPS in .177 and 700 FPS in .22 as well as 650 FPS in .25 with a lot of shots at ideal FPS in stock form. The Reximex has a nice look but is more of a low power target pistol at 520 FPS in .177 which is nice as it is more of quality target gun and I could not find anyone selling them in the US? Hatsan has been using semi-auto in a lot of their products, it would be even cooler if this was semi-auto? It is hard to tell with those pics as I could not see a lever like the Remimex has so that makes me wonder? Hatsan makes good high power products but they just mass produce them so they are not ideally machined, etc. but when you have a tuner hone, polish, and tweak them you can get even more power and reliability from them. Hope they sell this in the US?

Very cool! bottom tube connection though looks a tad fragile, and Im not known for my gentleness...

If the cost is right, I may get one....

 

[dan_house]

the FB link alludes to them being shown in a trade show in europe(ish)... so maybe we will see them at the 2023 SHOT show....

I do not know why they did not add another 3 cylinder below the base one and really go for broke ….
I wonder where it will end up , unless airgun designers start designing things of beauty like the firearms industry have been doing for eons…

 

[Harv24]

I'm kind of diggin it.
Has more power and shots...compact... rails in the right spot for a light to activate with firing hand...adjustable cheek rest,,,

If the price is right, I'd snag one.

Reximex has no US dealer.

I think i would be digging a hole in the ground for it….a deep one….so i would never have to look at it.
The duel cylinders only exceeded in ugly by the super high sights ….whats that all about lol..
What happened to a sleek ramp or flush mounted rear sight ….
Ill have to leave this post its hurting my eyes too much…

 

[Steveoo]

Its not hard to design in sleek styling that would bring with it much more joy of ownership..
A simple set of sights, kept low profile…important on an air pistol …these type sights available since the 50 s…
Whats wrong with the 60 or so shots these pair make …plenty for a good shooting session, or field trip…or how about a spare cylinder to swap out….
There is a much better way…

it’s not just their pistols, Hatsan is hell bent on winning the ugly gun award every year. Umarex though, does throw them some competition on occasion.

 

[Steveoo]

I have added an additional cylinder here (you know it makes sense) so you can shoot the monstrosity for a whole month without re-charging
All i need do now is add and additional 2ft to the height of the sights and we are onto a winner.
Im not sure if i want to laugh, or cry.

I think it looks pretty cool, but why not ad a small bottle instead?

nah, that would be FX and look-a-likes. now there's some ugly.

I have had the Umarex Notos on back order for months now. Looked like a cheap lightweight squirrel gun that would be easy for the kids to shoulder. This Hatsan pistol looks like it might fill the same role if the price is right.

I do like the looks of those but the problem with all of the air pistols is that the power is so weak and when they have any decent power, meaning 700+ FPS the shot count is not good and/or they are huge and do not really look like a pistol anymore....
