Yes, I have one.
I also have an Edgun, Lelya 2 and a new Uragan. If you go back a day or two and find the "Hurricane" (US translation for Uragan) post on my Uragan review. While I do list the BP 17 third in line, it is up against some VERY stiff/good competition in the Lelya 2 and the Uragan are higher end guns, design wise.
There have been a couple that have bought them and returned them for various reasons. I got mine from Pyramyd Air. If you spend another couple of bucks with them, they go over it, shoot to verify all is well before shipping their guns. Mine came to me with a good report. If you use the "search" function, you should be able to find my review on my BP 17.
I for one, like it, have had no trouble or problems with it. The only real complaint is that the safety is kind of cheesy, the way it works. But since I'm the only one using it, the safety doesn't get used..! I did take the big can on the front and make my own version of a silencer. As the gun comes, it's not really much of a muffler. Just two big chambers. I made up one design...didn't work. Then I started thinking,out of the proverbial box and came up with a moving wall (spring loaded) chamber. It actually works pretty well.
Yes, I'm happy with my Atanam, BP 17. Accurate, fun to shoot.

P.s - You can also go to Pyramyd Air, look up the BP 17 and see the report I gave them, along with a couple of not so good ones..!

thanks mike , I own a Lelya 2 in 25 cal and a leshiy with 350mm barrel and I love both of them , and both are my carry around yard guns and both very accurate and I have shot a ton of pellets in the leshiy and it just doesnt quit or fail me , hi power it is accurate and low power with sub 12 reg it is a silent lazer , I just see alot here talking about compact guns and I have not seen or heard people hunting or talking about this one accually , I was looking for a PCP pistol as I don't have one and I was looking at Ataman and I saw this gun , had no idea it even existed , but for me with compacts like leshiy and lelya 2.0 , then the next size like wildcat and cricket I own , I have plenty of quality lower power pcp hunting guns

I recently bought a Taipan Veteran, my first bullpup, and I love it. Just wondering how the Ataman compares, as they come from the same part of the world. If anyone has experience with both, I'd like to hear your opinion.

They are good. I got a M2R Bullpup Type 2 in .357. It's a good gun. Don't worry about warranty and repair. Pyramid air fix mine easy after I broke the Pellet -pusher (my fault).
