HatsanUSA is recalling about 16,170 Blitz and Blitz 777 air rifles because they can fire unexpectedly if the bolt is released before the rifle is fully cocked, creating a risk of serious injury or death. The affected rifles were sold nationwide and online from February 2020 through March 2026 for about $800 to $1,100; one accidental misfire has been reported, with no injuries. Owners should stop using the rifles immediately and ensure they are unloaded. HatsanUSA is offering a free replacement trigger assembly with instructions, or prepaid shipping for owners who prefer the company to inspect and replace the part.
