Hello, new to this forum and recently started shooting with my son......Just clay bashing for now and really enjoy it.. it gives us some father and son time without him screaming at the bloody x box!!!

we both shoot on the cheap and own a yildiz 20g o/u and a bettinsoli o/u cheap but so far been very good guns and starting to hit more than we miss😂

so we got offered a hatsan supreme Max 3.5 chamber had a read about them very mixed reviews but for the price I paid worth a punt! Yet to shoot it. I have given it a good strip down and clean as this seems to cause most of the problem.I am now trying to find info on this smart valve as many have spoken about an O ring ...mine does not have this! I can’t find any info on this valve 

http://www.airgunspares.com/store/product/21535/Hatsan-Smart-Valve-Piston-3.5%22/

thats the valve I have fitted .....If any one could give some info on this valve ,strip down and pit falls of this valve would be appreciated?

 

hope to bump into a few of you around clay circuit in the coming months..

Thought I just give an update, took it out for a shoot at the clay ground.......thought I bought a right pup and only good for a walking stick jammed and missed fired on the first 10 shots or so.....son wasn’t impressed! Persevered with it then after a few more it seemed to loosen up and the next 100 didn’t miss a beat...£150 seems to worth it after all.  Been pigeon shooting and it’s been great. It’s now had a major clean and cycles perfect. For an introduction to a semi worth the money. Still not found any info weather it should have an Oring..

its going out for a clay busting session next week so hopefully won’t misbehave..😁😁

I’ve just bought an escort with the same valve as yours and that doesn’t have an o ring, I found one that fitted and put in the same place as my other escort and it must have changed the head space as it wouldn’t even mark the primers with the ring in, took the ring out and oiled everything up and it seems to be fine!
