Anyone have suggestions on how to help me get my compressor working, got it yesterday the water pump not hooked in tank got that fixed did the whole break in run, everything fine, hooked it to my 100cc ninja buddy bottle got it to 3700 psi. Shut off and can not get it going again. Acts like reset switch is bad. Help it’s deer season. I know I can send it back or wait for parts, just hoping that someone may have suggestions. Thx

Return yours now while you can. I almost bought yours but I got this one instead and I was super glad I did. it weighs 40 pounds.

Wow I’m totally surprised to have gotten your personal input. I watch all of your videos and really enjoy them. I have learned a lot from your videos and appreciate your input. I got into airguns about 3 years ago started small with a break barrel then got a bt65 in the 22cal and said wow, this is cool. Bought a few more lol. Got the bug for big bores and decided it’s time to buy a compressor. Ordered the small blue one came a week late with missing parts and damaged from shipping, decided to buy Hatsan refurbished had luck with a couple of their guns, then the lighting, ya it struck, came with water pump not connected, try to put your hands in to get that together ouch. Got it running and got my buddy bottle to 3600 psi and stopped, Damn it. We have until the 30th for deer hunting here in Michigan with the airguns . Have bow hunted for years and was so itching to try my Dragon Claw 50cal this season. Have a 60 minute scba tank but to fill it is an hour away. You hear my frustration lol. Anyway will look into that. I’m not done with Hatsan, they all can mess up and I do very much like the the power in their airguns , but am frustrated. By the way I’m always pointing out your stuff on sale in the classifieds to my wife,  and she by the way nicknamed me airhead lol I just added Northern to it . Thank you .

Cool! I love Hatsan guns too. They got that shot string down!  So far I have found that you just fill up a Hatsan and you KNOW your first XXXX number of shots will be dead on...no wiggly first 1-3 shots or optimum air tank level...the optimum air tank level on a Hatsan is from "FULL" to "TIME to REFILL". That's why I'm selling my $2000 Steyr semi auto to buy another Galation Semi Auto. They had 4-5 of them in Wood for $599 as a special sample thing at Hatsan USA dot com and I didn't see it. That gun never would have left my side!  Anyone got a wood Galation Semi Auto I want one! -Nate 

P.S. Speaking of videos. Just uploaded this weeks video 5 minutes ago and IT'S a WHOPPER! 

Thanks for watching! -Nate

Another great video Nate, we enjoy them a lot, the wife really gets a kick out of your voices for the little dudes.? Not to sure about the accuracy on that Gamo although it does have a tuff look and like the power it’s putting out. And Yes a RAW vs Impact. My money is on the RAW , the HMx 357 It’s one on my wish list for sure. And brother if I ever hear of one of those Woodstock version Galatians will definitely send them your way. I know I came close to getting that Silhouette of yours with the custom grips I think that was a sweet little pistol. Keep the videos coming man, we missed ya when you were moving also whatever happened to your little buddy the robot who rolled along with ya? Now that was some good stuff ?

Well, so much for that idea. 

I have a compressor, but I'm at the other end of the State. Roughly 16 miles NNE from the Michigan/Indiana/Ohio border area.
