Manny,
Have you heard from Ed about your request for info on this rifle? 

[Dan H]

Are you Kidding me ? .....you own one of the Ugliest guns made, that new 10 ton, made out of spare parts Hatsan bullpup that is proportionally all out of wack, ho boy.

  oh really that MAD does not even have the side cocking lever up by the trigger ... heck I don't even see a multi shot mag on that one ... oh and NO multi power wheel ... like the Hatsan Gladius or FX impact have .... the MAD looks like it has been hacked together with a normal rifle  gut's with the bolt right up against your face !  very poor design for a modern bullpup ! and fat girl uggly UGLY   2 ! the stock looks like it came off my grandfathers rocking chair .. I knew some body took it ! ...

every time you cock that MAD thing you got to leave the shooting position taking the gun off your shoulder ..  mean-while that game you were shooting at is laughing it's tale end off running out of sight ... thinking- "  if that fool had a multi shot Gladius I would be in trouble right now ! ... HA ! HA !  "
this Gladius has the adjustable cheek rest /power wheel / smooth side lever multi shot mag . .. and as far as weight goes if you can't lift this gun you DON'T belong in the woods to begin with .. it shoulders a lot lighter than my Mrod with blaster stock... or my career mk300 which is in the 7lbs range .... 

EDITED for rule #6 violations

Wait...... WHAT? You mean you miss? Why? Don't go taking the shot if it's beyond your ability.

I think they are going to be in production soon, than more info will be out.

[Nomadic Pirate]

Those Hatsan boys must have a serious inferiority complex, they always try so hard butting in other guns threads, LOL

Reality check,....It's a Hatsan !!!!
ever wandered why they sell them for next to nothing ? Quality at the end of the day it's not cheap, no running around that.

[Gerard]

I've got to admit, after watching a few of Ed's highly entertaining videos it's just about impossible not to like the guy. And his Leshiy... while I still find it inelegant, the darn thing is growing in me. Pretty soon I might even think it looks good, if I stare at it enough. Thing looks rock solid. And I love the short video where he debunks people's claims that a blown seal or not locking the breech closed will somehow present massive dangers. Hilarious! The thing has me wondering if it might be possible to do a scratch build along similar lines, because with suppressor laws in Canada there's no way that integrally suppressed version is ever coming here. An unsuppressed version would be cool... but I suspect that combined with our power limits for pistols there'd be no point marketing such a gun to Canadians. And it's probably going to be defined as a pistol if the RCMP lab ever bothers to look at a sample.

Looks ? why is everybody talking about the looks. This gun is perfect for backpack hunting /hiking in the woods its light weight, more than enough power, accurate, and has a good shot count for such a small air reservoir. This is also a great survival kit. With a puppy bottle you can survive out in the wilderness so you can buy some time until they can find you or you find your way out. Function over looks this is not a bench rest gun this is a small game hunting gun/pesting when I'm looking down my scope I'm not thinking about how the gun looks like if its cute or not. If the gun is not accurate, heavy , and not efficient with shot count then we have a problem. If you like single shot/ multi shot/ side lever/ rear lever/ what ever floats your boat every body has a different taste.

[YEMX]

I WILL own the Leshiy someday...  I LOVE the concept, and looks!!

+1

I would like to have Leshiy, or new Matador R4.

[Tonycalves]

Mr.Flip said it perfectly. When looking through your scope and hitting your target it doesn't matter what the tool looks like. Function over form every time.

I like it! And I'm not a single shot fan.

I don't care what my bike looks like, when I ride it I never see it.

Honestly the lowest quality gun's at the cheaper prices are the Korean guns you love .... 2 funny !  and the  Sumatra is on that list ... and that is coming from and engineering back ground ...when you just look at quality of material's / fit/ function  ....Dan Mcvey xp airguns pneumatic engineer  is of the same opinion  when we have both had them apart , looked at them ,and tuned them ....  now having sad that -they still are all fun to shoot ..but man the Korean quality control just bites ! 

it took 4 guns sent back to get a good career mk 300

it took sending back 2 Sumatras to get a good one

the 909 had to be re ported and re bareled to .308  cal to make it a shooter
 
sent the rainstorm back it failed ! for all that money ... then replaced with a .25 Mrod light tune blaster stock a lights out green mountain barrel gun that put the double priced rainstorm to shame .. it was loud and not accurate compared to the dirt cheap Mrod ... kinda said cause it looked really nice ...

Now for the " real " reality check... I....  don't think Bob -rsterne  , Bwalton , tkerrigan ,toine ,Jim Chapman ... and many other's with machinist/engineering back grounds would mess with the Hatsan platform at all if they were not of decent quality ... the truth is they are hunting machines built tough very durable for a very good price .... some models are heavy ..then other's not so bad-- at44- 10 .25 cal wood stock  is around 7lbs and shoots like a hammer/accurate  with simple light tune .... $419.99 shipped right now at airgun depot  ...

speaking of airgun depot  THE AIR GUN DEAL OF THE CENTURY is on right now ... Badger .40  cal... chromoly air tube ,and barrel  $599 ! YES !$599 SHIPPED !

I just bought one ... Jim Chapman has one shooting  880's  fps  185 g  bullet shooting with in 1 inch at 100 yards   right out of the box ! A stone cold killer ,and here is Jim's video that proves it ...

 

[UCChris]

Honestly, I think Hatsan PCP's are right up your alley Manny. They are beasts of hunting machines. Yeah, they're heavy and not nearly as attractive as their British sisters, but I can't understand why you have such repugnance towards them, and those who own them...

[Nomadic Pirate]

And they keep on coming,    They are soooo Boring,
man those Hatsan boys just can't get away from the lesser complex 

Anyway back to EDguns, nobody here want to hear about Hatsans, you Hatsan boys can keep them all 

[militaryflip]

It's getting entertaining in here

TAG has been down for a few days now and that is the best venue to hear from Ed,

Can't wait to see reports of this gun when it comes to the public.

I know I don't have a lesser complex ... I have the 36 inch barrel ranger .45 shooting right close to  800 fpe on air ... switch to helium and that # goes up quite a bit ... I see one of the matador guns for $1665  tag ... with the same $  I get the Gladius and the Badger .40 CAL  + a custom ordered Richards micro fit  tack driver laminate stock for the Badger .40...

and ya ! that is what I just did !... manny looks like I have the -  " I want more "  complex !   and every time I fill that badger up to 4300 psi and let a 185 g bullet rip I will feel just how much more I got ! HA !

I want more complex

[Nomadic Pirate]

Ho well, guess I'll have to open an other thread to talk EDguns since Hatsan boys often feel the need to troll other guns threads to spread the gospel of hatsan

[Booger]

Lets play nice or I be forced to lock this thread and wait on the admins decision to put it in the non productive gate.

Thanks for coming in on this.  Way to much tension...over nothing.

This thread is going nowhere fast. Opinions are fine. Bashing is not. Keep it civil or it goes away.
