Liam-1990 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Seen one brand new the other day not sure of the exact model but it was a black synthetic pump action multi choke and came with 5 chokes for £295, looks a lot of gun for the price, what are they like ? good value ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bry-M Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Got one. Escort fieldhunter i think is the model. Being a pump it cycles anything you stick in it, it shoots where you point it, it'll come with 3 years warranty and you won't be bothered about getting it dirty! The naysayers moan about hatsan reliability, which on the gen 1 semi auto's there were issues. A new gen 2 or 3 pump action will be fine. I'm very happy with mine!

ForeignGadger Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 The Kalashnikov of field sports. My semi auto (camo 26" ) will cycle anything down to 24g, any length of cartridge, and you don't need to worry about scratches and dings. it is tough as old nick. Not as finely finished as a big name auto, (some sharp edges and some slop in the action, (just the same as an AK47) but what the hell? Dealers don't tend to love them (less profit?) but for a knockabout gun, especially in the hide, they work well, and you don't worry about spoiling your best gun. Mine's a 5 shot FAC, and particularly likes 30g /6 Clear Pigeon carts. FG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bedwards1966 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 I've a Hatsan pump and I cannot fault it. Ignore anyone who has a go at them, most of them have never had or tried one. My pump is reliable, tight and feels good to use. I've had a few comments about it being a cheap Hatsan, yet when people then look at it properly I keep getting comments about how good and tight the action is. Great value guns that you don't mind knocking about a bit more than you would with an expensive gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam-1990 Posted October 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 at £295 its a good price the one I looked at seemed a solid bit of kit and looked good and multi choke too might have to treat my self sooner now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BerettaSV10 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 (edited) Cleaned mine the other day was expecting it to be full of crud, only muck was on the gas piston and a bit in the receiver, the gas ports were still clear so did not bother cleaning them. Its been a gun take out and use, run a bore snake through it after use, dry any water of it a quick wipe down of the barrel with oily rag and put back in the cab and It was still working fine.
