RemyBolt 420 Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Well I've gone and got myself a PCP. A Hatsan AT44 .22 (ratting) 10 shot, PCP. Am I a life long PCP convert? Is this the end of my CO2 and Springer days?! Watch this space and we'll see... Quote Link to post
Underdog 2,337 Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 No, you will return. I am now only a blow up dolly gun and Co2 owner but a little part of me is a spring man. Quote Link to post

RemyBolt 420 Posted July 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 I think this is an epic fail for the PCP crew. Have you ever tried to pump a PCP? So I went off and got me a PCP pump for the Hatsan....total waste of money. I can hear air pissing out all over the place. So I assume it's the o-rings. Being a regular CO2 guy, I'm pretty good with changing o-rings. So I get my o-ring boxes and change them out. Any guesses what happened? It's still hissing like an angry snake every time I try to lift the pump handle up or pump it down. What is this, some kind of conspiracy to force me back into springer's and CO2? I have literally had 40 shots with my PCP and it's no longer working as it refuses to be refilled by the official refilling equipment of the company that made the gun! I'm going to get it working, as you all know I'm as stubborn as a mule. But seriously, what's all this PCP thing about?!?! It feels like buying a Ferrari, but after the first drive, there is no way to refill it. Already the pump and spare parts has cost me more than either my springer, CO2, or even my air-pistol! This has to be some kind go joke, right? Quote Link to post
Underdog 2,337 Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 It won't be a big issue but I feel your disappointment. Afraid the gun industry, especially airgun industry is not what it use to be for quality control! Is there a special seal missing between the whip and robe? 1 Quote Link to post

bigmac 97kt 13,787 Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 Dose it still hiss when you take it off the pump if not the problem may be the pump take it to the rfd and get him to fill it off his air tank worth a go any way atvbmac :thumbs: PS,,,,should of got a hw100 1 Quote Link to post

And probably you'll never hear it again. Just trying to get the idea that it's something you're really looking forward to like driving a nice new car, but then totally sucked. 2 Quote Link to post
