Huben All Things HUBEN GK1 (air pistol) - Master Thread

Jump to latest Follow Reply
Plz give me an example of a good shop with the Huben OEM moderator 1. great reviews, 2. in stock, and 3. at a good price. I shopped for hours and found prices between $150 (gogun.co, but poor reviews) or $150 and "NOT IN STOCK," or at a whopping $250.
BUT, GREAT NEWS about the Huben website. They got an employee, Lucia, right on it when I emailed, and they sent another UPS EXPRESS URGENT on 20th August and it arrived on the 22nd at NO EXTRA CHARGE. WOW! Now THAT, my friends, "you can't beat with a stick!" They are not, of course, responsible for the delay at US Customs in Atlanta, have never had that problem with DHL, and, wrote that it is unlikely that they can recover the can (stolen?) So, Hubenairgunsshop.com is a SUPER company with Huben OEM parts - and great people! From now on, ask specifically for UPS vs. DHL. We worked in East Africa for 15 years, then England for six, and DHL's service was AWFUL! - LongJnSilver from Hendersonville, NC

@LongJnSilver As I've seen many times, someone on AGN will suggest a shop where they've had a great experience. Then other's will come behind them and say something completely contrary and bash said shop. So here's my suggestion - take look at the first post in this thread. Look at the linked shops that sell the GK1 (when the thread was created they were the authorized dealers listed on the Huben's manufacturer's website). You've eliminated GoGun in your previous post. That leaves three others based in the U.S. From there go to the "Industry Feedback" forum and do a search using the AGN search feature. Type in the name of the vendor in the search box then click the the box that reads "advanced" in the lower left corner of the search box. A new screen will pop up where you can type the name of the shop in the "keywords" box at the top. then scroll down to the "Search In Forums" box and highlight "Industry Feedback." Finally click the red box that reads "Search" at the bottom of the page. Using this method will show you feedback left by members concerning a specific shop that you typed as keywords (provided that members leaving reviews didn't mispell the name of the shop). This method should yield results only posted in this forum https://www.airgunnation.com/forums/industry-feedback.525/
From there you can determine which shop is best for you. As for someone leading you to what's in stock, I'm confident that a business's stock can change on a daily and/or weekly basis.The point of putting a thread like this together is to help members better help themselves. I hope you find what you're looking for.

I got really excited about getting one of these Krazcool "falcon" shrouds so I posted on a couple different threads. I got yelled at by the moderator. Im so sorry everyone and sorry to the moderator. I now know that it was wrong. Im not getting paid or anything I just thought it was cool looking and heard there is going to be a limited run of them. So again my apologies .

I can't find the original post on this type of loading gate, but someone made one from aluminum, but countersunk the receiver to use flathead screws. I didn't want to drill the receiver so I used some screws for PCs that I ground the head to a smaller diameter. Then 3D printed a part that is retained by 4mm x 2 magnets and blocks the pellets from coming out. Downsides of using protruding screws are the access to 2 of the 5 pellet positions is somewhat hindered. Not a big problem for a 0.177 but might only be able to load 3 with a 22 or 25.

@Ezana4CE WOW! Dude the amount of time it must’ve taken to file through the posts and organize it, you’re a legend!

Also should this be added -> https://www.reddotmate.com/product/huben-gk1-rear-sight-mount/

@Bernie7 Yes it does take time to compile information into a thread like this. Thanks for contributing to it.

I’m aware of Reddot mate. I’ve communicated with someone from the company. I was told it takes about a month to receive an order and they are located in China. Other than that I know nothing about them aside from their prices seem cheaper than all others I’ve seen for the mounting plates for reflex sights. Have you purchased from them?

I was the one who initially reached out because I wanted a metal one (at the time the only one that existed was moistone’s) and I took the measurements and did the test fittings and install video :giggle: so I think I’m biased but I love it! (Btw I don’t receive any compensation other than the single unit to do the testing with)

@Ezana4CE Is there an equivalent list of o-rings for the GK1 as in the K1 thread? Haven't found many suppliers that sell NBR90's.

@WobblyHand I don’t know. I haven’t even looked at the parts list for the GK1 yet. Later on I’ll check my records to see where I found NBR90 o-rings. Which suppliers have you ordered from?

I found some probe o-rings at McMaster in NBR90, but there's not much of a choice in metric.

I checked Capt O-ring and the O-ring store. Not much in NBR90, at least that I could find.

@WobblyHand I checked a past The O-Ring Store order and I found 6 different NBR90 o-rings in a single order.

Thanks for checking. I'll go back there and search some more. Maybe I was confused by something on the website. Ahh, now I remember, 90's were easy to find. It was the NBR80's that were rare. Never found NBR80's for my probe.

The point of my original post, was a request for a table of o-rings for the GK1, like you had posted for the K1. Thought it would be good to have in a master thread. The K1 diagram is quite useful.
