Thanks for that. Phil

That is a great result and thanks must go to Si and Jimmy. Phil

What is on top of the Photon and can you just swap the scope to the NV and maintain zero. Phil

Been to a bbq today and one of the guys brought along his Daystate Air Wolf which he bought second hand from a dealer in Hull. He has had it for a few months, a minter for sure and although we didn't get chance to shoot it, it was nothing short of stunning, fantastic balance, just felt right and I think perhaps he has got a good un, I can really understand how you can fall in love with them, no idea how accurate it is but would have liked a session on the range with it just to see for myself. Lovely gun from a sh1te company. Phil

Hmmm, thinking Jimmy, I'm thinking....................trying one out tonight, an earlier one than that but we will see and turn my NV into a spotting scope. Phil -
Such a shame, the last thing you want to happen. Phil

I said they were poor in mine Mark, NOT all HW100's and I am buggered why they don't work in mine, I bet mine is the only HW100 that they don't actually perform in. The express do just not paying that price. Phil

I was going to put it in the sales section but it will not allow unless I am a donator or something like that but it is on some other forums so fingers crossed. Phil

Bisley Mags work well as do JSB Heavies and JSB Exact in fact most are quite good except AA Fields and RSB Superfields. Phil

Following on from my NV saga and it's lack of showing any distance over 15mt, the unit went back to the cottage industry that made it. The chap was so helpful it was a pleasure to deal with him, he was not at all happy that the image was so poor and requested the unit be sent back at his cost to sort. Yesterday the NV arrived back safe and sound but as I have been helping at my daughter's house, I didn't get chance to try it out until tonight. The camera has been replaced, to be honest I think he has replaced the whole kit, I focused the lens for my scope recticle setting and off into the ga

Interestingly Stealthy, my local RFD has reached a similar decision after battling with Daystate over a gun which, if I remember correctly, only left the shop a few days earlier and Daystate didn't find fault on their behalf. This went on for weeks. One thing I don't understand, why would a successful English company, capable of high standing in both UK and worldwide markets, be prepared to loose everything by poor QC and p1ss off most of the customers who have spent hard earned cash and a lot of it, to the point, like Mitch and many others, that they will never buy from that company again

I am a huge believer in 'TRY BEFORE YOU BUY' where ever possible but I know it is not always possible. Phil

One thing is for sure Luke, it will give you the chance to feel the difference between a PCP and a springer and there is a big difference in shooting them as I have found out when I bought a springer recently, as some of the lads on here will know. I will wait to hear from you matey. Phil

Extremely well put Mitch. It is the same with cars, we buy a car and it has faults, before we know where we are, that car would never darken the drive again. I feel this way about some cars which is unfair as many people own them and love them. I think it is fair to say however that Daystate do not seem to care about their customers and the money invested in a product which is very poor and that is out of order. I would love one of these guns but I cannot afford one but even if I could, I would be nervous about buying one UNLESS a second hand one came up whose history I actually knew or of co

In the middle of a stubble field, not so easy and to be honest, I can't be arsed looking around for bits of twig, I would prefer every time to have the gear to do the job. Phil

Welcome aboard Luke I am only an hour away from you, near the Humber Bridge area so if it helps, you can come over and have a go with my guns, I have both PCP and springer so you can see which you like. I will take you to my local dealer who always has some second hand guns which I will arrange for you to try while you are there if that helps. Phil

I know the frustration you have had over this gun Simon, from what you told me and I guess just as much now knowing you are closer to attaining the gun you thought you were buying in the first place but perhaps Carl is not the best on communication but from what so many people have said, it is worth the wait. I hope you hear from him soon my friend and start to enjoy the Airtech Regal. Phil

Where do you get the cradles from Mark or have you made them. I have seen a few but if you have some that work well for you, I am interested mate. Phil

Thanks for your input guys. Phil

As usual Mark, up to your normal standard mate, nice going. I do like the top drape over the hide hmmmmm Phil -
That looks a nice range Dave and with the fences, I bet it isn't affected too much by the wind. Phil

Still blowing a hooly here Si, the East Coast is getting plenty of wind at the moment. I'm taking the shotgun for a few pigeon if it is still blowing like this in the morning. Phil
