Hatsan Have I Created The World's Ugliest Air Rifle?

[WoodWelder]

It's only half ugly if it shoots!

Not too ugly?

If it's really really accurate, you can get away with a lot, ...but I don't know about that!

Put 60 rounds through it this morning and nothing broke.
That said I'm not all that confident in the durability.

Accurate enough, from a bipod at 40 yards I can punch quarter size holes.

Printed a tactical stock and purchased a butt stock. Main body of the stock (red) took 5 or 6 printings before I got the right material and printer combination (HS Petg on the Flashforge 5M). The grip was 3 printings (TPU 98A). The tube was just PLA.

The body has some weak spots, mainly the trigger guard. I may look into beefing that up.

Overall it seems sturdy enough and is about 16 oz lighter than the Hatsan stock. Could have saved a bit more with a non adjustable butt stock.

But thar is one ugly rifle, which to be honest was one of the objectives.

Got one uglier?

Picture?

In California as long as you are having fun and it puts a smile on your face, you're good. It's not about what the Jones have.



Besides, we all get a participation award.




Sounds like you got a handle on the 3d stuff. it definitely better than what I can do, that's for sure.

Just starting out at home a couple weeks ago, which is all leading into a huge project at work. As the "senor" engineer it falls to me to figure out all the details, contact the salesdroids, make up the plan, check if there is a ROI, if yes, then turn it all over to the boss.

But there is no sense in not having a bit of fun along the way.

So maybe the other side looks better.

Ya know they make that filament in other colors......

What, 3 colors were insufficient?
Maybe Pink, Purple & Chartreuse next time?

It sure is ugly, but...

No it is not the world's ugliest by far.
If you print those components in decent colours, decent material and better quality prints, it could actually be quite nice.

Given your portrait above your screen name, that's hard to believe.
