Hatsan Blitz

I had just gotten this a few weeks ago and it had shipped completely empty. Just wanted to put this out there, that you will have to fill it the first time with a large blast of air to get the valve to seat. I had also gotten a hatsan air pump, but when I tried to pump it, it just leaked the air out. Then I had gotten a bottle set-up and filled that with my pump, then used the bottle to fill the air rifle. The initial blast of air was enough to seal the valve, and I was able to pump up the air rifle the rest of the way. So don’t think it’s defective if it’s not holding air when you first get it. I’ll take 1/2 point off the review just because no one tells you that if the air cylinder is on 0%, you have to initially blast it to seat the valve. I had to look up the info myself. I’m sure some have been returned thinking they are defective.

Pros
Haven’t shot it much yet, but the little bit I have, it’s been awesome. And yes, the full-auto is amazing!

Cons
If it’s delivered empty, you’ll have to fill it with a high-pressured blast of initial air to seat the valve.

When gun arrives, unlike some higher end guns, it has no air. What that means is that you cannot fill it by a hand pump or anything that is very slow to fill. If fact it will appear that gun is leaking air. This is indeed the case because valve needs internal tank pressure to stay closed. So first fill needs to be done with a tank or a compressor, not a hand pump – don't freak out about it, it is normal and true for other brands as well.

Pros
This is one of the only two fully automatic PCP rifles I am aware of. It is pretty accurate for the money, though no records will be set with this gun. Shooting fully automatic is a lot of fun. Pretty good capacity on a single charge. Comes with three magazine.

Cons
Feels a bit plasticky. Trigger action is probably one of the worst I can think of. Charging handle is not very smooth and requires a lot of force. Fully automatic is prone to failure to feed I gun is not cleaned and lubed.

If you enjoy a gun with the fun of full auto , I dont know who wouldn't, and that shoots consistantly accurate then but this gun. I dont see how you could go wrong. 1500 rounds flawlessly.

Pros
First off let me say that I started of with the airforce texan lss .357 and thought this full auto hatsan blitz will be the perfect second pcp airgun for me. So like most people at this time I had to wait almost 2 months to get it. As I waited I tried to get ammo in .30 asthats what caliber I've got only to find out there was a wait for that as well. Anyways when I received my 3000 pellets I began shooting. I will tell you this, this is not like shooting those full auto bb guns that are replicas like the dpms and all the rest. This is an airgun that is quite effective in the 100 yard range. The most consistent gun I have probably ever shoot. At 65 yards I shoot 16 rounds that all touched in the target no bigger then a silver dollar. At 25 yards I held it as steady as possible on rock and roll mode and blew a hole thru an old metal door all 16 rounds touching. I personally love this gun and am glad I bought it.

Cons
First off I cant stand the fill port. I prefer the quick disconnect. Secondly the magazine size. It shoots so fast that you can barely lift off the trigger in time to not empty the magazine. Which is also very fun.

I was waiting for it for months and had the pleasure to play 2 magazines before the trigger mechanism stopped grabbing the hammer so impossible to cock it! Found few screws not tightened, one of the 2 bolts that hold the bottle was down in the housing!!! The cocking bolt has to be pushed by hand to push the pellet to the end and so after 20 shots, it became a manual rifle. Ouawwwoo. For a $950 riffle it hurts!!

Pros
Very nice

Cons
20 shots, 10 problems. Not finisbed, certainly not tested by the the factory

Pros
This is a well built gun. Everyone I have let shoot this wanted one. I believe I've sold 5 so far. I can shoot dime size groups at 25 yards all day. It does run through the pellets. The magazines work well. I haven't had one jam yet.

Cons
Nothing

I'd buy the 25 cal. In fact I will in February. Use all types of pellets if you like plinking. A whole new world.

Pros
Of course the Full Automatic ability. A dream come true, what you boy didn't want one.. . I have had 0 issues with the rifle. This is my 3rd pcp. It's amazing the accuracy and hard hitting, now more like devastating. My other two pcp are 22. Stormrider and a gun with a name HUNTSMAN. I don't know much about it. Made in Korea. Airgun shops could not help me with who made it. It loud and has a 6 gun type pellet for repeating shots. Get this fires between 2000 and 2300. Tested it with 4 different cronies. Back to my BLITZ. easy to fill , took 14 min from 0 to max. Now a top off 5 min. It's well made with fine material. A little heavy but still great when firing it in full auto. So far 600 rounds in full auto and 340 in semi mode. Don't forget to clean the Barrel first off. Every pcp gunner NEEDS one. By the way not a single jam . All THREE mags flawless. 7 different BRANDS and styles, even mix pellets.

Cons
Only one. A 30 or 50 round mag. Hopefully a after market will show up.

Buy it, you will love the rifle. I’m at ~1500 shots with flawless performance.

Pros
I own the .30 and it is an absolute blast. My daughters love it. Lots of power in the .30, like a 22LR. The full auto is ~1000rds/min and plenty controllable. And on semi it is a tack driver. 50yds same hole, 100yds touching. Awesome fun. Also a great help with ground squirrels in the garden.

Cons
Larger mag, 16rds on full auto empties fast.

It would be very nice if magazines were available in larger sizes. You will need to buy a 4500PSI tank to get it filled to full capacity. Do not try to buy tanks from amazon, the sizes will not fit valves and some dive shops wont fill them. Ended up with Air Venturi Wingman 98 Carbon Fiber Tank, 98 Cu Ft AGD-A5905 from airgun depot

Pros
FUN-- when it works. Incredibly fast when on full Auto

Cons
Have had to send it to Hatsan twice already for repairs (in 3 months) Not sure if it will last.

Its not worth the money. Mine sucks!

Pros
It looks mean

Cons
It shoots lame

I love how this model feels in my hands and the balance feels about right ( was worried due to the placement of the tank), love that it has built in and fully adjustable iron sights. I'm hoping I can add an additional suppressor/moderator to lower its noise levels (personal preference). I have to be careful of the full auto option or i will burn ammo in a hurry

Pros
pro: very light and easy to maneuver, easy loading,

Cons
con: it requires a special tip to fill it up and i am having a hard time finding a replacement for just in case this one goes south on me
