About the Hatsan Flash
The Hatsan Flash is a Turkish pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) side-bolt-action air rifle built on a fixed 165cc, 200 BAR air cylinder with an integrated pressure gauge. Firing .22 caliber pellets from a 12-shot auto-indexing rotary magazine, it features Hatsan's QuietEnergy fully shrouded and choked barrel with an integrated sound moderator, plus the adjustable two-stage Quattro match trigger. Aimed at hunters and target shooters seeking an affordable, quiet and accurate PCP platform, the Flash spawned the QE, regulated Flash-R and compact FlashPup bullpup variants.
The Flash line was Hatsan's push to bring a lightweight, budget-friendly repeating PCP with a full moderator system to the entry-level airgun market, competing directly with rivals like the Benjamin Marauder.
