Hatsan Flash Wood QE QuietEnergy .25 Cal PCP Air Rifle
Hatsan Flash Wood QE – Classic Hardwood Meets PCP Power
The Hatsan Flash Wood QE .25 caliber is a lightweight pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle that combines traditional hardwood styling with modern QuietEnergy (QE) technology.
Built around a 165cc aluminum air cylinder and a precision rifled barrel, the Flash Wood QE delivers up to 900 FPS and approximately 40 ft-lbs of energy, making it suitable for small game hunting and precision target shooting.
Its hardwood stock, integrated cheek rest, and rubber butt pad provide comfort and control while maintaining a classic aesthetic.
What Is QuietEnergy (QE)?
Hatsan’s QuietEnergy (QE) system features:
- Fully shrouded barrel
- Integrated sound moderator
- Reduced muzzle report
According to manufacturer specifications, QE models are approximately 50% quieter than previous non-shrouded designs.
This makes the Flash Wood QE more backyard-friendly compared to traditional loud PCP rifles.
Regulated vs Non-Regulated – Is Flash Wood QE Regulated?
The Hatsan Flash Wood QE is a non-regulated PCP air rifle.
What does that mean?
- Air pressure drops gradually with each shot
- Shot velocity may vary slightly over the fill cycle
- Simpler internal design
Regulated PCP rifles maintain more consistent velocity per shot but are often more complex and expensive.
For many shooters, a non-regulated system like the Flash Wood QE offers:
✔ Reliability
✔ Easier maintenance
✔ Lower overall cost
Caliber Comparison – Which Flash Wood Should You Choose?
Although this page features the .25 caliber model, the Flash series may also be available in .177 and .22 calibers.
| Caliber | Velocity | Typical Use | Energy |
|---|---|---|---|
| .177 | Higher FPS | Target shooting | Lower energy |
| .22 | Balanced | Small game & targets | Medium energy |
| .25 | 900 FPS | Small game hunting | ~40 ft-lbs |
The .25 caliber version delivers heavier projectile impact and higher muzzle energy compared to smaller calibers.
