Hatsan Jet I/II Discussion

[avator]

Does the NOTOS mag fit the Jet? Has anyone tried?

[Privateer]

As high as the hole is? It looks more like a Dreamline magazine.
I'd like to see the barrel side of one.

I'll have to wait until Tuesday or Wednesday when mine arrives.

That is a negative!  They are different widths.  The Jet magazines are wider.

Wowser!

[Rat Sniper (AKA: PaulT58)]

I have no idea what the difference is between the Flash mags and the semi-auto mags, other than the semi-auto are aluminum and the Flash mags are plastic.  But, then, you'd think the Flash mags would be cheaper.

Are you using these magazines in the Hatsan Jet or Umarex Notos?

The Jet, they won't fit in the Notos.

About the Jet, I bought one and upon recieving it immediately bought another. MidwayUSA had all calibers on sale, a .25 was 135 bucks just a week or so ago. It jumped and I got one for 150. They also had discounted Sortie mags, got the last one for 14$. They're metal and 10rd, major upgrade.

Now I have 4x6round mags and 1x10round. Quite the stack. Also two tubes now, so a field spare because the Jet 1 allows hotswap, THE selling point for me really. Almost left my second at the range yesterday, don't make the same mistake.

I bought the second because once I sat down and looked at the design, I realized how genius it is. Its not evident in videos and pictures becaise no one has really cracked its code yet. I feel I did and I should have some enlightening posts here soon. I think this was built with immense potential hidden in the design. Noone has realised why certain things exist on the gun to direct the user to perfect balancing and numerous unadvertised configurations. I've researched it a lot, and all the best reviewers have been less than impressed by the Jet1 because they just werent thinking creatively. They have been intentionally mesmarised by the Hatsan designers, who made a fairly perfect gun and hid it under a hideous facade for silly, fear ridden markets. No other gun offers the mod potential I see here in the Jet1. 2240 be darn.

The Jet 2 is backwards progress. More air but can't hot swap so virtually useless to me. The new Jet3 is also backwards progress, to me. For the stock off'the'shelf Jet buyer, the Jet 3 prolly is best of all 3 models. To me, the Jet 1 is where its at.

I am mainly interested in combining 2 Jet cylinders to make a longer single cylinder. The proper double male connecter should do the trick. Longer tubes would give support for an fx slug liner, which this needs for slugs for sure. Yet, before this I was looking for a smaller pcp tube applicable to true single hand pistols and I hereby direct anyone who doesn,t yet know to the new Velox, by Hatsan. Pretty sure everyone wants one. That tiny tube has countless uses.

As for my tube extension, I honed in on the Air Venturi Avenger and the AvengeX as possible sources, before I got the second jet which may allow me to combine tubes.

Got a red dot and sighted in at 25 yards yesterday. Freakishly accurate. I was impressed. The slugs spun off into oblivion, like 3 foot off target, upper left every time. That was Grizzly 31 grain slugs, useless for this downrange. The Hatsan Vortex I grabbed w my second Jet were very accurate. I was standing and just training my eyes to use a red dot and to use the bolt and reload etc. So my shots were very quick, more like a self defense situation, and they ALL landed where the dot was at on target. This was a 39$ red dot from Bass Pro, it needed corrected left A LOT, but did not need any vertical correction.

Word of warning. I shot a slug first thing, and the gun dieseled very hard. That first shot sounded like an elephant gun. So when getting your new gun out, be aware that first shot may be the strongest it ever shoots.

Fyi my barrel mod for slugs will pretty much force a longer barrel in order to get a full twist, which would up the velocity and then potentially be over the legal limit for where I'm at in IL. So I am pretty muched forced to play with upping the caliber to bring that velocity back down, and to use a heavy slug liner to further drop velocity via heavier slugs. That mod may interest some people trying to get the best from the Jet and I could probably use some help with it. I'm actually a newb.

I look forward to catching up on this thread and watching your results. I haven't opened mine up yet and would love to know what tunes are possible beforehand. I toy with the idea of a regulator, after shifting to a 300bar Ait Venturi cylinder. ‍

For about $160 I like my .177 Jet 2.

Accuracy is about 3/4-1" at 18 yards.
Good for plinking fun.

[naptemp]

I have a Jet 2 in .177.

I slightly flattened my shot string by:
-removing the 2 hammer spring preload washers
-adding 2 M3 nuts as preload to the valve spring

Now I get 4 magazines (32 shots) from 250-260 bar to 160-170 bar, between 780-820 FPS  with 7.5 grain pellets.

I am not sure if changing to a weaker hammer spring and a stronger valve spring would help too much at this point.

Finally got a video made to show off my Jet mods.
Yet I can't post external links.

The Hatsan Jet 2 already has 2 tubes (80cc), one next to another.
What would you gain by connecting 2 tubes the way you want?
