Hi,
I bought the Hatsan Flash .22 about a year ago. The model is the synthetic stock model and with the QE system on it. It has been a great PCP to have and I have had a lot of fun with it. While having it I have had in mind to modify it and make upgrades to the gun. My idea would be to build heavily upgraded Hatsan Flash now and I already have a few things in mind. The goal would be to have a consistently shooting sub MOA gun built that can shoot the FX hybrids around 950fps and shoot pellets accurately around 900fps. I would like the gun to be able to shoot up to 200 Yards, but I think it is a daydream with this base. I would be happy to achieve consistant accuracy of around sub MOA in 100 yard range too.
I know this might be nearly impossible to do on a sub 300$ base. It is always have been my interest to make everything better with some small upgrades and I love tinkering with stuff. Lets see how this project starts to go forward. I have already put some parts and ideas together and talked with more experienced airgunenrs here on the forum. I am having a "cheaper" and more "expensive" build in mind.
Cheaper build:
- Huma-Air regulator with XXL plenum
- Hatsan NovaStar barrel upgrade
- Hammer spring upgrade to NovaStar spring
- Air Valve seat upgrade to ported PEEK valve seat
- Transfer port opened to 180 thou all the way from barrel to air cylinder valve opening
- Cleaning the action and cleaning the barrel
Expensive build:
- L&W 30" poly barrel upgrade
- BT65 255cc air cylinder upgrade
- Huma-Air regulator with XXL plenum
- Hammer spring update to NovaStar spring
- Air Valve pin seat upgrade to ported PEEK valve
- Transfer port opened to 180 thou all the way from barrel to air cylinder valve opening
- Cleaning the action and cleaning the barrel
- FX no limit scope rings
- Bushnell Match Pro scope 6-24x50FFP
The setup I have in the beginning is:
- The Hatsan Flash of course
- Hawke Vantage 4-12x40
- UTG Leapers high rings
- DonnyFL Tatsu moderator
- UTG Leapers cheapo bipod
During this COVID-19 times it seems I have had too much of free time and I decided to start a YouTube channel just for the @$%^ and giggles. You can follow me on YouTube under the name as here Montana_AirGunner. I have a few videos there where I am going throught the mods I have been doing to the gun already
