njc110381 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 i only want to hear from people that have experience with these guns and not people who know people with relatives who have this gun. I have one mate who's 3.5 Hatsan won't cycle below 32g (I've used the gun but it's not mine) So Spiderdude - shooting a gun myself isn't first hand experience then? Seems like you're the one who can't manage not to have a pointless dig at other members posts? Or perhaps you've owned everything so don't need to fall back on experiences with other peoples kit? Steve B summed it up perfectly to me - spare O rings can be picked up cheaply. If you're prepared to take one with you in case the cheap O ring that Hatsan use splits while you're having a good day on the Pigeons then all well and good but if you prefer to have something you don't have to worry about then perhaps it's not the best choice. It's all personal opinion and choice - it's a bit rude to have a pop at me for having my say don't you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin lad Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 i dont think i have seen this on here as a topic only single posts. i only want to hear from people that have experience with these guns and not people who know people with relatives who have this gun. Do the new hatsan escort semis have any serious common problems with them? as i dont want to go out and buy a new one for it to go wrong. or does anyone have any reccomendations for semi's in the £300-£500 range? Sorry if its already been posted. David M i have 2 mate a 12g and a 20g no probs as yet have put loads of carts through both colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

compo90 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Where are you from David? My RFD mate does not charge the going rate (£25) PM with your details. Steve. go and speak to your nearest gunshop.....the shop nearest me, bought a gun for me from another shop hundreds of miles away, they stated they could buy it at cost price and charged me what it was advertised for from the other shop, they obviously still made money and they paid the transfer cost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henry d Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Local gunshop won`t stock them after all the palaver of sending the bad ones back. Buy cheap and you will buy twice, get a second hand 1100/11-87 or Beretta in the same £ ball park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan gun Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 get a beretta a303 or a a390 cant go wrong and will hold there value for a while if you want to get rid later on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
