Yeah, I know, one is $650 one is $1500, I'm not insane, really.... Well maybe a little. I've been interested in the Galahad since I saw the first pictures last year. Been trying to find more recent reviews without much success. The reviews I've seen on PY seem to be less than glowing which to this point has scared me off. Being a lefty it seems like a good fit for me (except for the price of course), plus I have an S510 carbine and have been happy with it. I ordered a .25 Bullboss from PY during their birthday sale knowing it was out of stock, but suppose to arrive this week, website now says June 9th. I'm thinking of either changing the order (assuming I can) to a .22, which is in stock, or ordering a .22 Galahad (.25 Galahad seems a bit under powered). I'd prefer to purchase from PY since I've been sitting on $650 worth of gift cards since Christmas.

Prices aside, if I had a choice I'd choose an AA every time over hatsan. There are many who own the bullboss and like it just fine though.

I am very biased having 2 air arms.
That said I say +1 for the Galahad.
I have wanted a full length version in .25 since they came out.
They have added the regulator that is so needed on the S510, with one they are an equal to most anything out there in the high end.

Thanks for the responses. Yeah, kinda what I've been thinking, just hate to spend the extra money. I've never owned a Hatsan but based on what I've read seems somewhat similar to Crosman, as in needing to be modded to get the most from them. I've had a love/hate affair with my Crosman guns. I cuss them, threaten to dump them all in the trash, then finally get one shooting awesome and say "Gosh I Love This AG."
