Huben pistol.

That is the beauty of this hobby, some shoot paper, some prefer to pest/hunt. The latter I wouldn't trust a gk1 out to 100yds myself. Not condemning anyone who does just inserting why I made the earlier comment.

I've been following your posts on the .25 cal GK1 - I was looking for a reflex sight with a laser that will work directly on the 11mm rail. Amazon didn't seem to have anything like that. Can you post a link to the AliExpress model that you have? Thanks!

Maybe?
I used these on my 22 pistol, they’re inexpensive and work great with a pic base.

I already did in one of my resent comments. https://de.aliexpress.com/item/3291..._main.113.7fe479d2ygP7vo&gatewayAdapt=glo2deu
See the laser with 11mm rail option.

Those of you who want to install a laser and wish to know the easy way to set it up. It is simple. First align the reflex sight, then using the small dot on a blank paper positioned high on the paper, fire a pellet from your desired alignment distance, say 10 to 20 feet, sighting on the reflex sight dot. The pellet should strike the paper the same distance the reflex sight's screen center is above the barrel below the dot you aimed at on the paper. Now, using the same reflex sight's aim point adjust the laser beam to cover the hole you just made. The laser will now be dead on target at that distance.

That's really helpful. I'm just getting back into airgunning and looking forward to this gun a lot. Do you have a link for that reflex sight?

Sorry - missed it earlier - thanks for reposting. Is it really powered by just one CR2032 battery? Even the laser? How long does the battery last?

Surprisingly, the battery for the reflex sight will last quite a while, but it will depend if you shoot a lot and that you always remember to turn it off when you stop shooting. The 2032 will only power the reflex sight. The laser is powered by two LR44 alkaline watch batteries and that is not stated anywhere. They stack on top of each other in the laser tube for 3 volts. You could also use the 375 mercury cells as well, but they are slightly less voltage and that affects the brightness., In both cases, as the batteries fail, you will start to lose brightness and that's a clue to change them out. I know this because I have been using a similar sight on my PP700SA for a few years now. If you, like me, really like these sights, get a spare and keep it around just in case. It takes a while to arrive from China.

Is it safe to remove the back plate just to inspect this spring while it's under pressure?
I know you have to remove the back plate to degas it (seriously why is there no degassing screw?), but just making sure it's safe. I have a feeling my spring either broke, or the rubber thing is smooshed.

Okay so he does remove the plate while the gun is pressurized. It's the spring that comes out first, correct?

the spring & plastic guide may come out together. my first one was stuck and had to pull hard. but it should come out easy.

1) The degas screw is on top of the rear part of the pistol.
2)Alternatively you can degas it by removing the striker spring, reattach the cover with the two screws and fire the pistol. This will dump all the air much quicker than using degas screw.
I prefer the second method as I don’t want to mess up that degas screw and cause a leak. Also the second method is much quicker. Just remember to put the cover back on before you fire a shot without a striker spring or the striker will come rocketing out.

The cover AND the rubber buffer. The valve mechanism will slam the rear cover if the buffer is not there to absorb the impact.

Yes I would assume he would leave the buffer in there since I didn’t advise to take it out

In the video he keeps the rear cover off and catches the valve assembly with a rag instead.
But I only want to inspect the spring an buffer, so I guess I don't have to degas it this time around.

Yes there’s nothing wrong with that way either. I learned my method from a huben video. Tbh the rag method is probably better. Doing it the other way does subject the buffer to higher force since it doesn’t have the spring to help absorb the striker impact. I have been doing it with the way I mentioned multiple times over 4 years (with my k1 bullpup) and haven’t damaged my original buffer yet.

Aah gotcha! I just had a quick look and the spring and buffer are fine. I accidentally shot the gun below 100 bar today. Wasn't paying attention to the guage. But looks like everything is okay. No jams either.

November 12, so the next batch should be in by the end of the week 
...this is getting real, not been so excited about buying a new airgun in a looooong time.
After testing the .25 I'm just chomping at the bits to have my own.
.........Don't know if I mentioned this before but the Huben pistol is so small and slim that it actually fits inside one of the tactical Fanny packs I have.
