Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

HatsanUSA has recalled approximately 2,400 Striker air rifles because the guns can fire unexpectedly while closing the action during the cocking process. One incident has been reported where the rifle discharged unexpectedly, though no injuries have occurred. These pellet rifles were sold in black, camouflage, and brown hardwood styles from November 2011 through July 2012. Owners should stop using these rifles immediately and contact HatsanUSA for a free replacement.

Risk

The air rifle's internal mechanism can fail when closing the barrel after cocking, causing it to discharge a pellet without the trigger being pulled. This posing a serious risk of accidental shooting and injury to the user or bystanders.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using the Hatsan Striker air rifle and ensure it is unloaded.
  2. Check the barrel block on the left side, just in front of the rear sight, for the serial number. Affected rifles have serial numbers starting with 0511, 0811, 0911, 1011, 0112, 0212, 0312, or 0412.
  3. Verify that the word "Striker" is printed on the top of the gun's barrel behind the rear sight.
  4. Contact HatsanUSA toll-free at (877) 278-4448 anytime, or visit www.hatsanusa.com/striker-recall to arrange for a free replacement air rifle.
