secretagentmole 1,701 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) It's really easy to slate the R10, it's been a popular pass time on forums for years, but frankly, my late mark 1. R10 is simply awesome! Yes, it was used when I bought it and after 6 months I had it serviced and it went from good to brilliant, all PCPs need a service at some point! I would happily buy another. That said, a choice between the camo'ed version and the Regal is a no brainer, Regal all the way. The resale value of the R10 will plummet as not only do you have to get through the hordes that will not hear a positive word about a BSA product and then, you have to find the ones that like the camo version. The Regal has everything, massive fan base, solid performance and excellent looks. Most people are happy to overlook any common fault as it's a Daystate (see Range Rover for comparison) and will pay for improvements. Also, it's not camoed! Good luck with your decision! The R10 can be a good gun, but BSA built so many problems in that it became a bad gun! One principal one is that they used the wrong O rings in the regulator, these shrink and collapse, causing problems. This information came from the man who designed the R10! If you have an R10 you are wise to invest more money into the weapon and get it Blueprint tuned. It stops all the problems! By the way I own a BSA or two....

villaman 9,982 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 The newer mk2 version 2012 is ok with the newer reg in but its still a BSA r10 and I have one but don't shoot it much, not a match with the HW100kt imo Quote Link to post
