Took a Big Leap for me at least

[mosparky]

I've been watching the Hatsan site for a while and waiting for a free shipping sale.

Today I got the email that said a 15% off sale. Hmmm. I figured that should just about cover the shipping.

I bit the bullet and ordered one in each caliber, 177, 22 & 25. Once I got to check out I saw that I was getting free shipping as well !! SWEET !!!

Now I'm down the rabbit hole and searching for scopes. I'm a cheap $$$ and don't want to spend more than the rifles for scopes. Searching Amazon and they seem to roll all rifle scopes together no matter how you search. So many do not specifically say air rifle, air gun, pellet gun, break barrel, spring piston.
 I wanted to just get the Beeman 4x32 at Pyramid but they are out of stock and I am on the wait list. At least at Pyramid I can be pretty sure they are all air gun rated.
I'm open to suggestions for $30 to $40 scopes with 11 mm rings.

I've been looking at that one too, in 177 caliber.

Let us know how you like it.

Don't keep us in suspense, what is the code in the E-Mail Hatsan sent you. i cant find anything on their site.
Inquiring minds want to know.

Thanks Dave.

Mo..
Congrats on the trifecta. Check out the bargain gate for some low price scope suggestions. Maybe even have a look at the Pinty Scope site for some deals.

Refurbished Airtact $49.99
"refurb15"  15% discount PLUS free shipping.
CODE won't last long, pull trigger or walk away.

as of this post:
(qty) caliber

(33) 177
(9) 22
(1) 25

Refurbs can be pretty ROUGH or LIKE NEW.
EXCELLENT VALUE IF you can work on SPRINGERS.

Based on the large number of used/refurbished air rifles I have worked on SOME FOLKS have ZERO mechanical skills and absolutely should NEVER work on any air rifle at any time anywhere!
Hopefully you DON'T fall into that group ;-)

Airtact pros:
plastic stock = good trunk/truck utility rifle
coil spring = no worries about leaky Vortex air springs!
basically the same powerplant as Edge/Striker series except not EXACTLY the same

Airtact cons:
LOTS of plastic in rifle and trigger
IMO worst trigger in whole Hatsan line


Overall still worth the refurb price IMO. Even a "bad" refurb can be cleaned, modified, adjusted to shoot WAY above the purchase price range.

Parts may be a wait as the USA warehouse gets restocked from the factory in Turkey. Part cost is usually pretty reasonable.
At the refurb price buying a whole rifle just for parts is actually a bargain!

For the PCP folks the refurb FlashQE 22 comes in at $110.50 with this deal. I don't know of a better PCP deal than this.
FlashQE refurb MAY need work but seriously at that price I don't CARE!

Hope anyone shopping this sale gets a GOOD rifle:-)

 The Hammers brand has been known to hold zero on break barrel air rifles. www.amazon.com/Hammers-3-9x32AO-Rifle-Scope-One-Piece/dp/B001BXVCMU/ref=sr_1_6?
 On the cheaper side there is this but more roughbust mount would be needed. Such as the Hammers mount.

Those Hammers scopes are good. I have one on my Diana Two Fifty which has a pretty harsh recoil.

I have a Hammers 3-9X40 AO Mill Dot scope on my .22 caliber Gamo Magnum GR.
It has been on this rifle for a year & 1/2 without any problems.
If it holds up on THAT gun... it will work on just about any gun.
2 years ago I got 2 Optima 3-9X40 AO Mil Dot scopes on sale from Hatsan.
I got them for $20 each. I have them on the Crosman Diamond Back and the Hatsan Edge.
I don't like them as much as I do the Hammers but they are OK.
