Air Rifle "Hatsan 70" (Hatsan): description, technical characteristics

"Hatsan 70" is a pneumatic weapon of the new generation. Currently, development is in great demand in the domestic market. In particular, novice hunters often resort to operating a sample.

The popularity of the rifle is explained by the budget price, rather high tactical and technical indicators, attractive design. Rifle "Hatsan 70" proves that affordable cost does not always mean low quality.

About the manufacturer

HATSAN is an authoritative Turkish company for the production of small arms. Under this brand, truly worthy samples of pneumatic and firearms are produced annually.

The company has been active on the international market for more than 80 years. Unlike many small-caliber weapons manufacturers, in particular domestic enterprises operating under old, proven schemes, Hatsan is constantly working to create new, modernized weapon variations.

The company's production is based on the use of innovative technologies and quality raw materials. In the process of manufacturing components of pneumatics, the company's specialists rely on automated systems of three-dimensional design. All this contributes to a quality assembly and extremely accurate fitting of the weapons.

Design features

Manufacturer of the rifle "Hatsan 70" declares its development as follows:

1. Presence of automatic and manual fuse.
2. The platoon is made by breaking the trunk.
3. The use of a rifled barrel made of high-strength steel.
4. Descent with the possibility of adjustment according to the individual needs of each individual user.
5. The target is adjustable both vertically and horizontally.
6. Ergonomic, thoughtful design of the bed, made of synthetic materials. A comfortable, raised support for the cheek of the user.
7. Effective recoil system, made in the form of an elastic rubber pad.
8. Comfortable handle pistol type with the contents of notches, which ensure reliable fixation of weapons in the hands during aiming and conducting fire.

Butt

Air "Hatsan 70" has a butt, made of modern, high-strength plastic. Despite the fact that classical models of rifles made of natural wood are in high demand, the model still deserves the attention of shooters, since it has a really attractive look.

The use of plastic helps to facilitate the weapon. When observing the generally accepted rules of operation, avoiding serious shock loads, the rifle can serve for a sufficiently long time.

Sights

"Hatsan 70" contains all the familiar fly and sight bar. The surface of the latter is covered with multi-colored, fiberoptic threads. This solution greatly facilitates the guidance on objects, especially in conditions of insufficient visibility.

Ammunition

"Hatsan 70" fires lead bullets caliber 4,5 mm. Initial launch speed of the cartridge is about 300 m / s. This, in turn, opens the possibility not only for successful shooting at targets, conducting training fire on tin cans and glass bottles, but also allows you to successfully hunt small game. In general, small-caliber ammunition is designed for entertaining and sporting shooting.

Spring "Hatsan 70"

A comparative disadvantage of the rifle in the basic assembly is the use of a weakened helical spring. When removing the trigger mechanism, the structural element often flies outward. However, the kit often contains a reinforced spring, which is attached to the weapon when buying. Therefore, if you have certain skills, you can solve the problem yourself by replacing the constructive element.

Fuse

Specific design of the fuse is one of the greatest advantages of the rifle "Hatsan 70". The responses of the owners, who have already checked the weapons in action, attest to its extremely convenient location. The fuse is installed here in the area of the cylinder head. Thus, the element is always at the user's fingertips, which makes it possible to quickly prepare the rifle for the shot and immediately put it into the prevention of accidental descent.

Lifting the fuse instantly blocks the movement of the piston mechanism of the weapon. Consequently, its movement to the lower position makes it possible to immediately fire if there is ammunition in the chamber.

"Hatsan 70": characteristics

The rifle has the following parameters:

• Type of barrel - threaded;
• System - spring-piston;
• Caliber - 4,5 mm;
• Capacity - 1 cartridge;
• The length of the trunk is 450 mm;
• Total length - 1300 mm;
• A complete set - a cover, packing, the instruction on operation, a lath for installation of aim optics.

Modifications

The rifle "Hatsan 70" is presented in the domestic market in several modifications. The classic version is presented in black with a plastic butt. The Hatsan CAMO model has a similar design and design. The only difference is the design of the hull under the "forest camouflage". As for the modified sample "Hatsan 70 MW", the latter is equipped with a butt, made of natural wood, and is the most attractive option in a series of air rifles from the Turkish manufacturer.

Adjusting the trigger stroke

Like other small-caliber rifles, the presented sample provides the user with ample opportunities to adjust the trigger for personal needs. The operation is carried out by adjusting the special bolt that is located under the trigger.

To decrease the stroke, the latch is rotated in a clockwise direction. To increase the parameter, the adjustable bolt is moved counter-clockwise. Unfortunately, the setting allows you to change only the length of the trigger stroke. However, there is no provision for strengthening the descent. However, this comparative disadvantage does not affect the usability of the weapon at all, since the descent here is in itself quite soft and predictable.

Disassembly

Small-caliber rifles need quite frequent maintenance. Hence the need for disassembly of weapons. The procedure is as follows:

1. The stud is unscrewed, which connects the pad from the fuse elements.
2. A screw is removed, which fastens the shoe to the cylinder. It contains a slot for a screwdriver, instead of the notch under the hexagon, which is typical for most air rifles. The operation is performed slowly and very carefully, because otherwise there is a high probability of damage to the slot.
3. Carefully knocked out the hairpin, which is responsible for fixing and centering the trigger box.
4. Further, the shoe is retracted by moving towards the obtusement. Acting should be cautious, since the force of the spring in most cases is sufficient to make the trigger nut go out and become irretrievably lost.
5. Finally, the rifle piston is removed. Usually the latter is heavily clogged with grease. Therefore, it is necessary to act carefully. To pull the traction part of the element, it is necessary to remove the barrel shoe.
6. Assemblage of the rifle is carried out in the reverse order, which it is desirable to remember, and it is even better to write on paper.

Charging the rifle

To prepare for the shooting, the rifle with one hand is held by the barrel, and the other is taken as the base. If the fuse has been previously switched to a mode that excludes the execution of a shot, the element will move to the opposite position when charging.

When charging, the rifle breaks in half. One bullet is placed in the chamber. The weapon is brought to the closed position. Then you can remove the fuse and shoot freely.

Finally

How effective is the rifle "Hatsan 70"? The owners' feedback confirms that the sample is the best option for users unfamiliar with small arms. The model does not require further development and demonstrates acceptable indicators in the factory assembly. At the same time, when buying a rifle, it is always recommended to check its functionality once again, as counterfeits are often found on the domestic market.
