Good day folks,

As the title says, I am thinking of getting a Jet 1 but watching reviews on youtube and reading forum freedbacks from owners got me now confused.
If you have owned one or still own one, what was your experience with it and what work needs to be done to it to make it better than its factory state?
If you let yours go, why? what about it didnt you personally like?

The reason i want one is to have a small pcp for plinking and not have to lug my maverick sniper when i just wanna shoot cans.

thanks all!
(PS if you have one you're thinkin of selling do let me know!)

I own mine for about a year and a half. Mine is in 177. I never had a problem with it, but I noticed the power starts pretty high and it drops very fast so I cut the spring and after that the speed stabilize and now I have About 20 shots while I’m target after that the speed it starts dropping just never let it go down to low on pressure and it’ll be OK. I use 14 round and nine round magazines so in one packet I can carry all the rounds. The gun can shoot with the full chart I got it on sale for something like $100 to deliver it to my house so I’m pretty happy with it. Sometimes I use a scope. The little guy is pretty accurate of about 30 yards but most of the time I just got it set up to be a super light God without a scope the sites that come in it work pretty good for me. If you can get one out of decent price I would say go ahead and get it.

Every single one that I know personally, that has had one, including mine, would fail and often. I don't usually try to tell anyone not to buy anything, even from hatsan as I do like some of their rifles. But this one is not it, please do yourself a favor by not wasting your money on one, and instead getting a notos. It is regulated, it has a smidge, more power and it gets about as many shots, plus if down the line you wanna customize it, you can.There are plenty of threads on this forum of notos being customized.

For me, sometimes it would not want to take in air. I would have to fill it with a tank while shooting it so that the valve was actually shut and Phil. Sometimes it wouldn't even allow me to fill it when I was doing it. Also, with mine, I had to clean the barrel every eighty shots or so, which tells me that the barrel needed an extensive polishing. I was not putting in the work into a budget backup gun. Accuracy was subpar, when I first got it, I thought accuracy was okay, but later on I got a notos and I realized that the accuracy from the jet was entirely subpar.

I've seen this sentiment and seems to be a common problem with the Jet I, what about the newer iterations?
