Anyone know if this is available anywhere? The synthetic is offered in side lever but not the wood as far as I can tell
wood stock side lever flash pup available?

Hatsan Arms is usually the best place to look to see what might be coming and they don't show the side lever in anything but a synthetic stock. Not sure, since I haven't tried it yet, if the side lever will fit in the Walnut stock. I have both the bolt action in Walnut and the synthetic side lever, might just have to see if they'll swap.

Thanks i'll look into that. The reason I wanted a side lever is i was told the bolt guns cock really hard. How are yours?

Mine started hard but a little lube and use and it's slowly gotten better. Seen more than a few say they took theirs apart, cleaned, polished and got results faster and I got how I cock mine from many saying they use their thumb on the butt pad for better leverage to pull it back.
The side lever is just smooth although a put just a touch of lube on it. Didn't need it but I did anyway. Smooth, easy to use and I wanted the side lever because I already had a Galatian III QE and with the side lever and just flat like how it works. Only real difference between it and the Pup is the Galatian has an anti double feed feature and the Pup doesn't so you have to be more careful with it so you don't.

I have a Flashpup wood and it’s a great gun. I absolutely prefer side levers myself. In fact, I don’t think that I’ll ever buy a bolt action gun ever again. But the bolt on my Flashpup has been buttery smooth for a long time now. It has to break-in over the initial couple hundred pellets, and it does. Also, I spray the action with dry graphite every 150 shots or so. My bolt cycles with almost no effort at all at this point.

I just ordered a flashpup with a synthetic stock the regular bolt version, and they sent me the sidelever version. I dont know if it was a mistake or they just haven't updated their website yet. But I would call Hatsan directly as I suspect not even their website can be trusted at the moment. So that wood bolt action flashpup on the website might really be a sidelever.

I too am looking for the wood version of the flashpup sidelever in 25. I have a 22 wood that I Really like and just like mentioned, the more you use and lube/clean your rifle it Smooooths out.
