Hatsan escort semi auto in cammo.

[vole]

For £310 I am delighted.Seems well made and so far am pleased. Been getting among the crows and by adding the shims the fit seems to suit really well.Seems a great knock about gun and think I got a good deal.

Very nice m8, you got any pictures?

 

I have the Escort Luxano http://www.hatsan.com.tr/new_escort_luxano.asp

 

Absolutely bloody brilliant gun I think it is the best gun I have ever purchased.

 

I take it clay shooting, I often go with my farther and we both use the same gun, so we can get threw 200+ carts in one session a few times a week, in all of the time we have used it not once have I ever had a jam or misfire, and it’s so easy to take apart once you get used to it.

 

I paid £375 for mine, brand new with the twin barrels, 28†and 26†very understated gun. Great buy!

Cheers Spud . I partly went for the cammo because it would hopefully not look so grubby after being hauled through bushes etc. Think I got it for £40 or so below retail. Very encouraging to hear good stuff about the reliability too. :yp:

Good choice!

 

I have the Escort Double Magnum in black (3.5" chamber, otherwise very similar to yours but less fancy looking!)

 

As you said; they are a great knock about gun. I love the parkerized finish. Don't have to worry nearly so much as you do with bluing! Also a very cheap way to get an extra shot in which can make all the difference between a kill and not or even more importantly a swift kill and having to watch an animal suffer whilst you reload.

 

Also: if you ever want to upgrade to FAC 4+1 then you can do so at no extra cost! The gun is actually already a 4+1 with a restricter fitted to bring it down to 2+1. Obviously doing so without an FAC would land you in prison for a long time but I thought I'd tell you as it is actually mentioned in the manual! You can also buy an extension tube which takes the capacity up to a 7+1 or something silly.

 

The only problem I've ever had with mine is that it has split a live cartridge out of the gate when cycling a couple of times. It's a great gun 99% of the time though! Let us know what you think when you've broken her in!

Where is it?

 

You better be careful you don't put it down and lose it. :yp:

Yeah,the camouflage is pretty effective on that background eh? Wish they were available in "gun cabinet grey" so the Mrs didnt notice.

You did mate, nice gun all the best with it, I know a few blokes who use them for wildfowling and haven't had any problems so far :yp:

gotta admit i might get one of these for shooting rough for next season cant go wrong for the price! even if i didnt get on with it i suppose i could sell it for not much less than what i paid for it! result!!!

I dont see any Hatsan on sale for pocket money prices.They seem to be mostly £200 plus even for the base models which seems on par with most other mass produced guns ie 30 ish pc depreciation.I am really pleased to have a new gun that suits my needs.
