Hatsan At44 Any Good?


Recommended Posts


Hello, Mole here!

 

Hatsan AT44 also known as Webley Raider 10 shot. These rifles had a few problems when they came out, but over the last couple of years quality levels have come on leaps and bounds. Reported problems were the magazines being cast roughly and not indexing properly. I had mine 2 years ago, it worked very well, used AA Fields in it. Walnut stocked, 2 stage trigger, HW type side lever and anti double feed mechanism.

 

Good points.

 

1) Decent trigger!

2) 2 magazines.

3) Air gauge.

4) LW barrel (well mine had).

5) Good price.

6) Build quality is good now.

 

Hatsan used to have a reputation for poor finishing and build. These have been largely addressed in the last few years. Most Webleys are based on Hatsans only at Webley prices. The AT44 is a good gun, not outstanding, not mind blowing, value for money is excellent though. Just ask on Pigeonwatch!

Only bought 5 Simon, bet you have bought more HWs!

 

W got rd f two when we went PCP with the third, swapped the third for a Daystate, got the fourth last year and not going to sell it, the fifth was a present as you know for our neighbour who got his fingers horribly burnt in a deal by a so called friend, he is still using it to shoot woodpigeons!

I have actually...Just!

 

In my entire shooting lifetime of 46 years now, young mole, I have owned 7 Weihrauchs; including the HW80K I gave to Andy for his good services and the HW80, HW77 and HW97 I have standing here, right before me. The other three were an HW35 Export in 1978 (wonderful rifle that!) and two early model Mk.1 HW80s in both .22 and .177 flavours. All superbly fine guns and served me faithfully. I only wish I still had them. And 4 Webleys (.22 Patriot, my first FAC. An Osprey .177, an Omega .22. A .22 Vulcan and a sweet little Excel .22 converted to gasram.) when they were worth something and a fabulous Feinwerkbau Sport .22 from 1978.

 

That's about as many air rifles as you buy in any given year! :laugh:

 

Best wishes matey!

Aw come on Simon, my air rifle consumption has dropped dramatically now! In fact I would say that I am about where I want to be with my collection (2 x .22 PCP, 2 x .177 PCP, 2 x .22 gas ram, 1 x .22 spring, 1 x .22 CO2 for rifles, 1 x MSP .22, 1 x CO2 .177 pellet air pistols a .177 BB air pistol)!
