Remember that with any of the pcp guns comes the need to hand pump or invest in a compressor. That's what keeps me from going that direction. I don't like to shoot pump guns, the effort required per shot isn't worth the return of 1 shot then repeat. The same with having to hand pump in order to shoot or the expense of a compressor.
I can only speak to the Hatsan 125, but here goes -Mine is a standard model, basic black plastic stock, coil spring OEM refurb in .25 for $129 bought a year+ ago from Hatsan. Makes a lot of power, but is quite easier to cock than my Diana 350 NTEC and in the basic stock version really isn't that heavy.Gun seems well put together, the trigger is fine, accuracy is TBD but at short range seems fine as well. The firing stroke is heavy of course but not a nightmare. I don't recall any spring twang either.Mine seems to be a bit of a hot rod, making up to 36 fpe with 16gr alloy pellets (of which I've shot exactly 2...) but 31/32 to 34 or so with various lead pellets. For example, 25.4's run around 790 fps. 20gr lead is close to 900 fps. Yowsa!Interestingly, it averages 731 fps with 26gr FX Hybrid slugs, which are far more sleek than diabolo style pellets. According to chairgun it will start around 30fpe and still have close to 24fpe at 100 yards. Not that I imagine shooting much more than balloons or plate targets at that range!They arent quick or easy to load though. I would love to see a version with "driving bands" to reduce the loading force and barrel friction vs the solid sidewall design.I need to do a lot more shooting with it, and I'm guessing that the heavy shot cycle will contribute to significant POI shifts when combined with sometimes makeshift holds when in the field.So, Power with a capitol P, and while they aren't heirloom quality like, say, Weihrauchs are, they aren't junk. They check a different box than most other guns.
