Secretagentmole on here is a big fan
I've been given permission by her indoors to buy another rifle, and I'm thinking about the Hortitsia. I've seen the review online by Matt Manning, but wondered if anyone here has one and what their opinions and experiences are. I'd like real life reviews rather than someones opinion who's never even picked one up, let alone used one Any thoughts would be good. Thanks

Whether you think you can or think you can't, you're probably right.
I yearn for a cheap PCP in .22 for wandering the fields and woods. I took a look on a couple of websites and am astounded at the choice. The more unpronouncable rifles in particular seem great value.
Watching with interest.....
My ignore list: <Hidden information>
One of my reasons for asking is I have a limited budget of about £400, and I'd found a Hortitsia at Sure-shot airguns for £400. However after a phone-call today, it turns out they are no longer supplying Zbroia's. Shame and the next company, Pellpax are another £50 + delivery!

That looks actually quite nice.

I like the horizontal bolt, just like a Moisin-Nagant. The cocking noise is excellent. A double set-trigger would be nice.
If you are not familiar with Mark's style that is a rave review. It sort of corrects the exhuberance of Giles Barry on The Airgun Gear Show...

I was Toying with the idea of getting one, BUT why is Sure-shot stopping selling them ? Mmmmmmmm
Who else is importing them ?
LOOKING FOR A BSA ULTRA IN .177 and .25
I don't know the ins and outs but I think it was the other way around ... zbroia stop supplying sureshot ...
I've just taken delivery of a new kozak in 177 from pellpax after been impressed with my 22
Excellent build quality, good consistency and their barrel is accurate and not pellet fussy , really smooth mag system too
Hi everyone,
has anyone else got one of these? your personal finding is greatly appreciated as i am have thinking of getting one.
cheers
Latest review on this from Big Dan's Airguns. https://youtu.be/leBN8IUK7RQ
I have the Kozak, it's Bullpup counterpart. Its so good, i sold the compatto i had. THe Zbroia is not in the least bit pellet fussy, comes with 2 mags from new, and is regulated. You'd be hard pushed to find anything in this price bracket that has the features the Kozak/Hortitsia has!

When I called Dan to buy one he tried to put me off saying the majority were being sent back to the manufacturer's with problems, particularly around the magazine indexing system. He tried to persuade me to buy an Artemis instead.
I ended up buying a Kral NP-02 and am very pleased with it.
The Zbroia looks nicer though
