Huben Hammerless K1
- Thread starter wlbryce
- Start date
Whats the latest news on the hubens - are they still producing the same model or have they introduced new changes to address the reliability issues or is Huben even still making the K1 or are they planning to bring out a new model, different calibres, the K2 maybe? Can never seem to find the K1 in stock anywhere!

A Chinese company (possible Huben supplier) has ripped off Huben's design and made a Carbon Bottle version. Huben themselves are working on V3 as well, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

I recently shot one of the newest versions of the K1, the serial number indicated that the production date was in 2018, I shot it whit Huben slugs that came out later the one that you can make with the swagging kit.
I shot at 50 meters 10 shot groups and the accuracy wasn't that mucha better that my rifle shooting JSB redesigned, we are talking about 3cm groups with Huben slugs and 5cm with JSB I haven't tried to longer distances but at 50 you can get an idea.
I'll try to get a hold of that rifle (I have to convince the owner to lend it to me) so I can make more tests and compare results between the 2, until then I'll keep you posted.

let's hope the new mold from mp molds will be accurate, the design is based on huben slugs...

Just got my .22 Huben K1 which is believed to be the latest version. The first thing I observed is that the magazine fails to hold JSB Beast ( 5.52 mm ) in place and the pellet just dropped out of the magazine when the plastic retainer is pressed down. Here is the video showing how loose it is : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLn7klXKogU
May I know if this is normal ?

Just so you guys know. The huben K1 in .25 can only accept pellets 11mm in length. If you need to buy one. look at the big stores in the USA. do not place pre orders with little stores, you will wait forever since they require a minimum of 20 buyers before retailers can place orders with HUBEN. HINT HINT, any BIG air gun stores in the USA!!!!!

Do you know if that will be true for the K2 which is due out in weeks? Is the 33 gr JSB 11 mm or less? I have one on order, and was just notified it should be less than 2 weeks.
How do you like your Huben? What kind of groups can you get with it? What pellet weight does it like.
