Hi brother ...excellent review like always..thanks a lot...finally .25 version is out ...I am happy that probably I was the first person to info you about it 😅 ...looking forward to more of the detailed aspects from you ..specially terminal energy ...thanks a lot once again for all the efforts ...
hello sr, so i hear from other people that the huben k1 its not a accurate or target rifle, is this true in your own experience? can this be tuned to be accurate? do you recommend this rifle? does it compare to the fx impact in accuracy and shot count?
Hello! I have a 2020 version of 6.35 caliber that has 2 manometers. A repairman strongly recommends that I will empty regulator air (not the main tank) after each use so that the o-rings do not deteriorate over time. Are you sure? Thanks
Hm, personally, I would never do that. The draining of the plenum is not very friendly to the regulator so frequent using of this method is not advised from my perspective. Also, I would say that even increases the chance of leaks since the o-ring is deformed and released on each charge, not to mention the temperature stress... Don't forget that in this case, you actually need to tune the gun before each use... So I do not find this method to be appripriate.
Thank you for keeping us updated. I have .22 K1. And I intend to replace the custom regulator and put Huma regulator. I know how to de-gas the gun now. But after I install Huma regulator, how can I empty the gun if I need to adjest the pressure or to do som maintenance? Thank you
Shoot down to about 100 bar, then take the rear two screws out and remove the plate and the bugger rubber (make sure you have the gun on safe). Place a towel on the open rear side and set the power to minimum. Hold the towel by the sides (not on the back side) and take a shot (safety off first). The valve will be ejected out the back in the towel and the air will leak very slowly... that is it...
Thank you Gregor, what We have been waiting for from Huben's number 1 go to guy for info, unfortunately , it only leaves Me wanting more info. anyone know any dealerships that will ship one of these to the UK, FAC .
hey gregor i have a question about the mp molds, bin casting for some yaers now and i always dump my cast slugs in water to make them harder and have never hade any problems with the diameter size last week i made 500 huben slugs 5.52mm dropt them in water like always but they are al way to smal in diameter i was schooting with a shotgun no grouping at all @ 50m coold it be because i dropt them in to water that they shrink to mush ,i'm going to try again now with the 5.55mm and not drop them in to water and see what the resolts are i hope they fit right now thanks ,regards jeroen from belgium lead temp 825farenh moldemp +-200celcius smoked the 5.52mold ,now i dit not smoked he 5.55 lets hope for the best
Hi. This is not the first time I had a feedback like this. The use of this mold is a bit different than most as the weight of the slug is very small and the rings on it are tinny. This requires the mold and the lead to be quite hot and you will need some practice using it. Usually, the reason for the dimension problem is that the rings are not fully filled with lead. I heat the lead up to 400°C. I do not know the temperature of the mold as I do not measure it... I also drop the slugs in the water so that is not the reason for your problems... I suggest you experiment with alloy mixture (pure lead it quite hard to cast it those molds), temperature of it and of the mold... BTW: MP mold does not recommend smoking the molds but that should not affect the size.
Where can I get that exact gun and .48 grain amo this is a great alternative to a fire arm for no gun zones 100fpe is basically a 22lr this is the best air gun available how much power can it make regardless of accuracy
Hey Gregor, I am sure you have extensive experience with both the .22 and .25, which would you choose if you were shooting long range with slugs? Most of my shots are 100-200 yds and if I get one of the V5s I want to make sure that I make the best choice. Of course a big depending factor is availability of slugs which I guess .22 would have an advantage but let me know what you think if you would please? Thanks!!
at this moment, I would choose the .22 version for the reasons you mentioned... But we will see how the .25 performs with more tests and possible some mods...
So you intend to get one each? I of course love K1 rifles in generally, so I say go for it... If you are getting two, then get one in .25 and one in .22

This is still K1 but Huben did promote K2 at already IWA 2018. I do not have any news about the K2 yet, maybe I will get some info from Huben at IWA...
Great video as always Gregor. You are definitely the Huben K1 guru and have helped me with your excellent videos to get the most our of my K1. Please tell me where I can purchase the air tank pressure gauge that you showed at the end of your presentation. I have a K1 V 2 .22. and have searched online with no success. I live in the U.S. and purchased my Huben from AOA. In addition, I was wondering if you have had any issues with the fill probe included with the gun. I have found that mine does not fit easily into a female foster quick disconnect. I have tried three different brands of female foster quick disconnects. With all three it has required me to firmly tap them into the foster fitting due to the tight tolerance difference. Once inserted they are not easily removed, thus defeating the benefit of a quick disconnect when I need to switch fill probes to fill my other PCP's. Any advice you have on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Hi. So far I don't know where you can buy the tank pressure gauge but I will ask Huben. Yes, I had the same problem with quick fill nipple being too big but I just made it slightly smaller. I noticed that the new one I got for .25 has the same problem. I actually asked Huben about this a while back and they replied that it is for metric quick fill but I did not found two different types (metric and imperial) types of quick fill standards on the internet...
@@gregorkamensek3923 Thanks Gregor for your prompt response to my questions. I will continue to search for the tank pressure gauge online at the various websites that may carry the part. If you find the answer it would be great if you can let me know. As far as the fill probe issue it sounds like the only way to correct the problem is to make the nipple end smaller so I will give that a try. I would like to contact Huben directly to get answers to questions and information on parts and upgrades, but have had difficulty finding a contact phone number or email address. If you could let me know the best way to get in touch with them it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jon
@@gregorkamensek3923 Thanks for the info. Gregor. I will try to contact Huben using the email address you provided. I look forward to viewing future videos you produce relating to the K1 and other PCP's. Keep up the excellent work!
Gregor Kamenšek no leak. I guess the hand pump puts air in very slowly. I pump the hand pump until gauge is almost in red. When I leave attached the air slowly fills Huben tank. I thought air would go into Huben tank as I pump. This is my first pcp so I have allot to learn.
@@jessyandcat This does not seem correct. The air should go into the Huben cylinder immediately... Don't go into red (over 350 bar / 5000 PSI). That could be dangerous as this is the max fill pressure...
@@gregorkamensek3923 Not quite red, around 30 on Huben Pump.. However, I have to leave attached for hours for air to go from pump to Huben tank.. I Have contacted hand pump seller and Huben K1 seller to see if they have any insights..
@@jessyandcat Does the air gush put of the pump if you use it without the gun attached? I am trying to figure out if you have a problem with pump or your inlet on the gun...
I suggest you catch my video where I explain this. In short, it is the same story as with pellets. .25 caliber pellets have 6.35 head size but the skirt is actually significantly bigger...
100ft.lbs... must say I was expecting a little more. Didn't the 5.5mm K1 get almost 90ft.lbs? Usually there is a bigger gap between the calibers. Would be interesting to compare the terminal energies of the .22 vs the .25 over long range with slugs. I'm rooting for the 22 to carry energy for longer and to be more effective down range! - Maybe the smaller diameter will make the rounds more slippery. (I'm biased since I own the .22 K1 and the .25 is illegal in South Africa without a licence lol). PS: great video Gregor cant wait to see more of the new K1.
Well, yeah, I agree with you. But if you keep in mind that they did not change any of the parts except magazine and the barrel, that was to be expected. And the barrel is even slightly shorter, plenum too small to achieve more than that. But overall, it is a good limitation considering you cannot feed anything heavier than about 50 grains. If you consider the size factor and the ration of power to size, they are still on the top of the list and don't forget that the .25 is quieter than .22. You win some; you loose some :)
@@wodanswil There is nothing wrong with the barrel of the V1 K1. The problem is in the forcing cone. If you can have someone to fix this, it will shoot very well with slugs. The custom barrel for K1 V1 will maybe shoot slightly better and will be more efficient with slugs (it also has appropriately made forcing cone).
agreed, but not without FAC, an over the counter to any 18 yo sale as per sub 12ftlb would lead to some dingbat shooting up some place , and a ban on non FAC airguns ownership for everyone, Brits must protect what they have, there are anti gun types just waiting for an reason to ban. goodluck.

Cant wait for more of the review
Nice video of the new version Gregor !!!!, I forgot to ask but can you order the new pressure gauge for the bottle directly from Huben ???
I assume so. I will ask them at IWA.
hello sr, so i hear from other people that the huben k1 its not a accurate or target rifle, is this true in your own experience?
can this be tuned to be accurate? do you recommend this rifle? does it compare to the fx impact in accuracy and shot count?
Hi. K1 is not a target rifle. It is a semi auto high power slug gun. It is very accurate for what it is but it is not a target gun.
Gregor Kamenšek can I hit sparrows, squirrels at 100 to 120 yards with it?

Don't forget that in this case, you actually need to tune the gun before each use... So I do not find this method to be appripriate.
Very good information and presintation on Huben k1, a very good slug gun , we have only 3 Huben k1 distributors in the United States

Where do I buy the pressure gauge you talk about it but you don't say where to buy it.
Contact Huben or their retailers.
