I bought myself one of the 1000s guns last week. I have previosly owned an RWS Model 34, 36,48, TX 200 Falcon FN19. I have been without a gun for awhile and bought this just to pull a trigget again.

At 1st I was disappointed with how harsh the gun was to cock and the trigger. I took the trigger apart and polished a little here and there and it was a little better.

I also removed some of the burrs from the slot in the receiver. I noticed the mainspring has no lube or dampening compound so I applied some graphite where I could.

I started shooting the gun a few days ago from the sitting position and shooting off my knee. At 30 yards I was getting 1 1/2" groups but they seem to wander . I tightened up the stock scope mounts again and the groups stayed the same but didnt seem to shift.

After shooting this afternoon, I tried to shoot from a rest at 25 yards. (something I thought you never did with a spring gun). I was very pleased. Though I had a few flyers. typically 3 of the 5 pellets were in a 3/8" CTC group. in one group, I put 3 in the same hole and the other two were an inch or more away. I think it was me.

I am quite pleased with the gun and hope to tinker with it some more. The TX I had had seen over 10000 rounds through it and shot consistant 5/8" groups at 50 yards using crosman premiers at 860 to 880 fps.

I searched the HATSAn website for any diagrams and could not find any . Are there any available ? I almost NEVER got the trigger back together.
