Here is a link to the exact new trigger used on this gun and all the hatsen guns (currently) according to the factory. They say it is a "match grade trigger" and is two stage adjustable for both stages and pull. Loooks like an awsome trigger to me. I wonder if one could be put on a wather talon...I also have a feeling that this gun uses the same hammer powerplant as the walther talon and magnum. If so, it might be able to take an air veturie gas ram in place of the spring. One things for sure, this gun looks awsome. according to the airgun web video review it was getting 1330 fps (21. something fpe) with raptors and 940 with 10.65 pellets. one thins for sure, you are gonna have to use extra heavy pellets to get the great accuracy hatsens can get. They should have offered the .22 version of this gun.

Seems I've seen the trigger compared to an Air Arms. These new Hatsans are getting some pretty good reviews. Nice for a change.





BTW, if you are shooting into a Gamo cone-trap, don't! Those things are for around 650fps and lower. A good RWS34 will eventuall break them, especially the old spot-welded traps.

The trigger might be nice but it shoots to fast for 177 i think thats where the accuracy problems are coming from i here they shoot kodiaks at almost 1000fps.

I think this gun is supposed to shoot 10.something grain pellets at between 920 and 940 Fps according to the "airgunweb" video review. Thats about perfect in what I like. Recently, Iv been wanting to get a new crossman trail xp in .22 or .25 but this thing might have swayed me away from the crossman. Im waiting to see what the crossman will do in reviews. I am also worried that this gun will be a lot like shooting my walther talon .22 (which has been flawless for me) and I would like to have a better variety of guns too shoot when i buy another cause i cant afford to buy one really but am doing it anyway. I honestly think this gun is just an exotic version of a walther talon with a wood stock and a nicer trigger and underlever cocking. Yes i agree, its a little over powered for a 177. Daisy should have sold this in .22 or .25.

I was looking for some with my Winchester 1100 xsu so I was told about this site. For a long time I thought that this gun was considered a waste of time until I spent three weeks with this gun. Not weekends, that's 21 days. I feel in love with this gun and I wouldn't trade it for anything. After a day of cleaning and making sure that everythng was tight, I noticed that my barrel had come unscrewed I tried remove it but I stoped. Retighten the barrel and wondered if there might be one that's enterchangeable in a larger cal. I also agree that it's over powered but what if that power can be pu to use with every shot. From what I here about the gas rams and upgraded power plants is there such a thing for my Winchester 1100 xsu. Can someone give me any pointers? THANKS :o

Hi Mark,,, wanted to welcome you to GTA.... nice to have you with us.  

I don't own a Winchester 1100 and haven't had the opportunity to shoot one so I know nothing about the rifle but as for it's power..... that kind of power would work well with the heavier pellets.  Try some of the heavier pellets and see how it shoots.  That's the best way to take advantage of all that power.....

Again, welcome and I'll be looking forward to your future posts.....

Jeff
