Actually it is NOT AVAILABLE at all. Hatsan's website has several models that appear to be in stock until you attempt to put one in your checkout cart. Then it finally tells you "SORRY, None in stock  "

"You cannot add that amount of "_Refurbished - Striker Wood Spring - .177" to the cart because there is not enough stock (0 remaining). "

A small number of "new" Striker Wood Spring Combos for $125 ARE available in 22 (qty 3) and 25 (qty 4)

it sure would be nice if you could filter by 'in stock' there.

I dont know why anyone would bother with a striker when you can get the superior 95 with quatro trigger, sas and better wood.

I can explain...

The Striker has the same power plant, is lighter, shorter, and with a little effort can have a trigger that is >95% as good as an adjusted Quattro.

The SAS doesn't reduce the recoils on any of my Hatsans. It DOES eliminate the "loose screws" of typical springers mounting system.  The one negative of the SAS system is that the SAS bolt assembly is unique and pricey to replace if any component is lost or damaged. I don't consider the SAS system a significant improvement on the old 2 screw (plus threadlocker) system.

The Striker hardwood (Beech?) stock is actually pretty nice and sometimes looks better than some Mod95s Turkish Walnut stocks.

For my very first Hatsan I paid $90 for a new Edge Vortex 22 Combo. All subsequent Edges/Strikers I have were acquired for $40-$70. I also have several Mod95s in different configurations so I have direct hands on experience with both series rifles.

If you can get the better Mod95 in that price range, GRAB IT FAST!  Before the pandemic disrupted manufacturing, distribution, and sales, Edges/Strikers were selling for about half the price of a Mod95. At that price point the Edge/Striker is an exceptional bargain air rifle in its own right. At the same price, I'd agree that the Mod95 is certainly a better deal.
