LCS SK19 or HUBEN K1?

[Pale_Rider]

NOW If only Huben came out with a full auto... WHAT A RUSH!!! YO!

Does anyone know what makes the SK 19 to go full auto? I’m pretty sure the LCS and Huben have the same hammerless valve tech.

From reading other articles about conventional semi autos, installing too light of a spring can cause it to go full auto. Although, I doubt this method applies to the huben...

I believe a weak spring with cause the huben to leak all it's air out the barrel.

Can someone that has both the K1 and LCS put up a picture of both side by side? I wonder if the body trim parts will fit on the Huben.

 

[John-neag]

We have both, Just got a shipment of the .25 sk-19's tonight, have the Huben's in stock. can get you a photo in the morning.

Why does it take forever to load more than one picture at a time?

 

[WylieCoyote]

Thanks for posting the photos. They look awesome!
To me it looks like the Huben would be able to use the same trim, shoulder rest, and lower receiver trim with little to no mods to update the look.
The same accessories should work too.

I'm familiar with both two guns.I hope it will help you to choice .

SK19 originated from Huben, Huben parts are more precise.K1 uses a small cylinder and a high pressure solution for smaller size. So if you can't charge it at a high pressure, the SK19 tank will be better.But I heard that Huben will have a tank version soon.

OH! BTW! The SK19 pictured has the upgraded larger size 580cc bottle just so there's no confusion. The regular ones normally come with the smaller 480cc bottle.

 

[WylieCoyote]

I wonder how much the volume of air changes because of the lower pressure of the bottle vs the titanium K1 tube. Finding a 5000 psi compressor is another story.

I don't own either, but am interested in both! I have 2 friends who have the SK-19 in .25. They have told me that full auto will shoot about 8-10 rounds off before you can release the trigger! Sometimes semi-auto isn't fast enough, but that seems like way more than needed for a short burst. I wonder if they will come out with a way to have just a 3 round burst like the Military M4's? Three rounds in rapid succession should be ample to ensure most critters don't scurry away if the initial shot is not fatal! I would love to have a .22 LSC SK-19, and it would be awesome with a 4 position selector: Safe - Semi-Auto - 3 Round Burst - Fill Auto!

i did a fair amount of research before getting a huben. what turned me over were the consistent complaints on the sk-19 trigger (and not wanting to wait on the Leshiy 2). from the posts i've seen of owners that have both:

accuracy - both are very accurate

weight - negligible difference

trigger - huben wins, the semi-auto sk-19 is reportedly mushy and bleh. the full auto trigger mode is supposed to work better even for semi auto firing

fun - sk-19 wins here hands down for obvious reasons

I wish both Co's would come out with a lower powered version for plinking quietly around the house! A .177 from 6 fpe to 18 fpe or thereabouts!!

The Steyr LP50 HP that may do it for you. All it needs is an LDC and carbine stock. I have a 177 Taipan Veteran shorty inbound set at a hair over 9fpe to do just what you said.

The Huben was designed to shoot slugs.

The Sk-19 was designed to shoot pellets.

 

[the1stkim]

Even with my .25 I can turn the power wheel waaayyyy down say a 25gr at 600 fps. Theres 19 fpe

The Huben was designed to shoot slugs.

The Sk-19 was designed to shoot pellets.

That’s ironic because my huben shoots the best with JSB MK2’s. Most slugs fit loosely in the mag. The only slug that fit snugly was the huben boattail slug. The accuracy was ok.

What kind of groups are you getting with slugs @50/100 yards?

The Sk-19 was designed to shoot pellets.

The new Hubens shoot Heavy pellets much better than slugs. I have both .22 and .25. Both Monster RD, and King Heavy shoot great and blistering speeds. 1000fps and up.

Thanks for the suggestion. I had missed your post way back in August.

I have a Steyr LP5 and a LGB1 Biathlon trainer, both only 5 rounds each per magazine. I thought about buying Steyr's Hunting 5 but didn't for this reason.

As you might remember I tried to acquire a ProX which holds 10 shots in SA but they won't ship to the USA. 

I don't know if I can talk myself into the 8 rounds that the L2 holds??!! 

Almost bought a Huben but I'll just wait till my notion of what I want in a SA comes into existence. 

Honestly I've already waisted $$$$ in the FX Revo(POS) and various SA BB guns that were junk, call me leary and picky but I want, accurate, reliable, and high capacity, WITH a removable magazine as well as the ability to dial the power down to at least 12 fpe.

A buddy of mine converted his Huben to a bottle gun. Love the looks and woah! What a shooter!



I would love to try some of my own slugs in a Huben. Maybe I should send him some? They are ultra deadly on vermin. ;<)

hatsan blitz.I have one in 25 cal with an fx slug liner. It shot 38 grain nelson slugs at 960.And empties the mag twice as kwik as those slow pokes with twice the accuracy.
