Hi. I am new to this forum but would like some advice. I was looking to replace my HW 80K with a pcp. I haven't used a pcp before but after looking at reviews I thought that a Kral np-03 would fit the bill. I spoke to my local gunshop and they said that they had stopped selling Kral products due to the number of problems that they were getting. So-- has anyone had problems with Kral guns. The main issues I believe were with accuracy and quality. Most of the reviews that I have read were very positive so I was surprised by the gun shop comment.

Ive nothing but praise for Kral .
Having had both a NP02 and a NP03 I can say that they were both fine rifles , especially the NP03 .
Do I wish that I still had them? Yes I do .
But I like to chop and change

I’ve had a few niggles with some years back but the recent ones seem better, and setup for UK a wee bit better too, I’ve had a few Krals since Covid and no problems here 
Never had an inaccurate np02 or 3 and their especially good fun in .25
and their cheap as chips
I think there’s an np03 in the sales page

Like briane says, keep the HW80..... But also get a Kral NP02. I have both, both been brilliant, but I know if my NP02 ever breaks ( or any other PCP) I've got my HW80 which will never break 
My kral np03 is as accurate as my HFT500 which is an extremely accurate gun.
And has been faultless in the two years I've owned it.
There are a few krals at our club and I haven't heard anything but good.
I think your rfd was trying it on, trying to sell you something more expensive.

Or hasn't any in stock & trying to shift whatever they have in stock. TBF I went to my local RFD & was looking for a reximex myth & he said the exact same, won't stock them because they're always having problems? So walked out with the NP02 & never looked back.
My experience of Krals has been very bitter/sweet so far....sweet as in I was amazed at the quality feel/fit/finish (the smooth side lever and crisp trigger belie it price point) and accuracy of my puncher k...bitter because it was way over power on the chrono , so after a week of ownership its gone back to be fettled.
My local rfd was very similar , could get one but didn't stock or rate them. Then tried to point me in the direction of what he did stock.

Thanks for all the replies. It looks like the rfd was just trying to drum up some business. I will stick with my original choice and get a np-03. Unfortunately as a newbie on the site I can't access the sales section to have a look at the one on there.
