From Field to Range: HatsanUSA’s Harpoon and Hydra Bring Next-Gen Arrow Launching to Airguns

Rogers, AR (July 9, 2025) – Airguns have a special place in hunting performance and target applications. While firearms typically dominate these categories, archery has been the longest-held hunting and target tradition for over a millennium. With compound and crossbows finding their way into sports shooting, Hatsan brings arrow air rifles to life. Combining these two is not a simple task, and Hatsan has developed the most versatile – and the most affordable – option that utilizes air rifle technology with an archery focus.

The Harpoon Arrow Launcher is a fully capable, revolutionary arrow launcher. As the name implies, this robust bullpup design incorporates a side-lever action in a PCP (pre-charged pneumatic) that can reliably send arrows downrange at up to 600 FPS and up to 300 FPE, delivering exceptional power and precision.

The heart of the Harpoon Arrow Launcher is powered by a patented gas piston hammer spring. The design utilizes a 500cc aluminum air bottle that stores up to 250 BAR of pressure, firing up to 10 shots at optimal velocity for extended range and hunting time.

The design is centered around a standard 20” crossbow arrow (bolt). The advanced polymer stock features an integrated pistol grip. An adjustable locking elevation cheek rest and adjustable rubberized butt pad allow maximum adjustability for shooters of all sizes. An optic can be fixed to the long combination rail for those longer and more difficult shots, accepting 11mm and Picatinny mounts.

The Harpoon Arrow Launcher weighs 9.5 lbs, aiding in recoil mitigation, yet remains light enough for all-day use and carry. A shroud surrounds the arrow launcher and has additional storage for two arrows, making reloading and firing a simplified and fast process.

Hydra Arrow provides additional versatility nearly unseen in the air rifle world. The Hydra features Versi-Cal Technology (VCT) – a barrel change and swap system – an arrow module that allows the Hydra to fire pellets of varying sizes and arrows. A user can incorporate hunting, target, and archery into one platform with a quick change in less than 20 seconds. Swapping from .177, .22, or .25 caliber to a 20″ arrow takes little time and is suitable for all shooters. The arrow module is enclosed in a ventilated stainless steel shroud with integrated storage for two additional arrows. It launches a standard 20-inch, 370-grain arrow at 170 FPS with 25 PFE in low-power mode and up to 220 FPS with 45 PFE in high-power mode. Power is delivered by a 165cc, 200 BAR aluminum cylinder equipped with an anti-knock system, with pressure levels that can be continuously monitored by a built-in gauge.

Corrosion-resistant black anodized aluminum receivers sit in an ambidextrous all-weather synthetic stock with a Monte Carlo cheek rest raised on both sides. An elevation and fit angle adjustable buttpad ensures customization for all types of shooters and environments. It features a pistol-grip thumbhole stock and integrates a Picatinny rail on the forend. Each barrel module incorporates a combination of 11mm dovetail and 22mm Weaver optics rail and additional flip-up fiber optic sights. To make the shooting experience more pleasant, the Hydra Synthetic Arrow also features a 2-stage, fully adjustable, match Quattro Trigger, adjustable for trigger travel and load. The best part is that it weighs a mere 6.8 lbs with full-caliber conversion potential and shooting needs.

Combining the best of both worlds in sport and target shooting, arrow airguns like the Hydra and Harpoon take conventionally standard arrows and incorporate their peak performance capabilities and benefits into easy-to-use performance platforms. These unique designs are uncommon yet versatile for all types of shooters, regardless of skill level, offering effortless mastery and customization. A wave of the future and not just a ‘flight,’ arrow airguns are the next accessory to reduce ammunition purchase and improve the ease of taking game.
