Hatsan Blitz .22 Cal 45 round Magazine - Where to buy

[MarksmanPete]

My magazines finally arrived. Tested one of the 22 Cal and it fed the entire 45 rounds flawlessly. It looks like they have the spring tension set right. I will be trying some NOE cast slugs in my 30 Cal Blitz tomorrow. They fit easily in the high capacity mag. Hopefully they will function as well as the 22 Cal.

Just for fun I tried loading the 22 mag without the loading tool or a box wrench to turn the hex knob on the bottom of the mag. I have never used the tool on the standard mags, but on these it is pretty difficult to rotate the mechanism with your fingers, all they way around to get the first pellet in. I gave up trying, but I think with practice I could load one with no tools by rotating the two black "gears" inside with the thumb and forefinger of each hand. I am going to buy a couple of closed end wrenches at the pawn shop for 50 cents, chop them down in size and put a lanyard on them, putting one in each Blitz rifle case for when I lose the tool. (Not planning on losing it, but the odds are high that I will!)

Well I got heavyweight hands an strong fingers lets see if I have difficulty pulling back the tension probably still will 45 is a lot, Il probably make some spares as well, Cant wait till both my blitz arrive, That Guns fire rate is stupid off the charts.

I was able to rotate it by hand using both thumbs pressed down on the outer edges of the largest wheel in small steps, holding it firmly with one thumb to prevent it from going backwards then reposition the other thumb, and keep switching that back and forth until the belt hits the stop. Hold it tight at the stop and put a single pellet in the opening and release the pressure on the wheel, holding that single pellet in place. Loading it is easy once you have that one pellet holding it in the full position. I wouldn't want to keep doing it that way like I do with the regular mags. I can tell that my thumbs would end up sore.

Easy work for my big fingers, No need for a wrench, But I went thru over 1200 pellets already blitz is lotta fun the firerate is amazing.

I just received 2 of the 45 round belt feed clips. I am sending them back. They will not cycle. I don't have any issues with the ones that came with it. I did at first. Till I took it apart to clean out the grease. It was to much grease. I cleaned out grease. Used CLP oil,very little. Also the end workings inside barrel. I wouldn't recommend the 45 Rd clip.

I think I will go with another 21 round and the speedloader from Hatsan for the 21 rounders. I'll eventually get a 45 round mag. 21 is plenty if I can load mags quickly. They are too proud of the speedloader at about 50 60 bucks plus I have seen zero reviews so am hesitant. Any suggestions for speed loaders that work would be welcome, ones I can 3d print moreso!
