This recall involves all units of the Hatsan Blitz and Blitz 777 pellet shooting air rifles sold from February 2020 through March 2026. Both the Blitz and Blitz 777 pellet air rifles were sold in .22, .25 and .30 calibers. The pellet air rifles are gas operated and select-fire (semi-auto/full-auto) pre-charged pneumatic (PCP). They are black and feature a synthetic stock, a carbon fiber air tank mounted beneath the barrel and a rotary magazine feed. Serial numbers and manufacturing dates are engraved on the right side of the receiver above the bolt. On the left side of the receiver is the Hatsan logo, featuring a circular mark, with the word โHATSANโ next to a graphic of a bow and arrow. The model name โBLITZโ or โBLITZ 777โ is also marked on the left side of the receiver.
Consumers should stop using the recalled air rifles immediately, make sure they are unloaded and contact HatsanUSA for a free trigger assembly replacement which will be mailed along with instructions. If the consumer does not want to complete the replacement of the air rifle trigger assembly on their own, HatsanUSA will provide a prepaid package label to ship the product to HatsanUSA for inspection and replacement.
The company has received one report of an accidental misfire. No injuries have been reported.
