villaman 9,983 Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 (edited) Well I haven't been happy with the regal from day one with it being under powered and stiff bolt then pellet getting to the hammer , coming back over powered then to cap it all the powder coating coming of the shroud and only 5 months old . Went back to the gun shop and said , not happy with these issues I have had and could I have my money back or another gun, the owner said ,leave it with me , so phoned to day , the out come is ether have another regal or another make of gun and pay the difference . I thought about it for 2 seconds and decided to have a HW100KT in .177 to match the .22 and pay £60 . I had much high hopes for this gun but what a big disappointment it has been to me and to many others as well . I must admit TAL ARMES of Christchurch Dorset have been excellent all through my issues with this gun and the end result is fantastic , they have gone a extra mile for me ,WELL DONE TAL AND TREVER . Cant wait for MY NEW HW100KT .177 to come , Happy days a head Edited April 12, 2014 by villaman 2 Quote Link to post
mark williams 7,551 Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 (edited) Hi VM, You will absolutely LOVE the HW 100 KT .177 cal , - outstanding rifle. The performance this rifle gives off a bipod in the field just takes my breath away.I took the HW KS .22 out today on crows at 45 yds - 3 shots - 3 crows all head shot. Took the HW 100 KT .177 to the same permission, last weekend 3 crows, 1 Magpie,- 4 shots all "eye shot" at 45 yds atb Edited April 12, 2014 by mark williams 1 Quote Link to post

Darkie69 76 Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 It's a shame that you got, what only can be described as, one that obviously slipped the QA test and did not perform to expectations but you stuck to your guns (pardon the pun) and got it resolved with the RFD . Hopefully you'll have better luck this time round and we'l get to hear all about it. Happy shooting 1 Quote Link to post

Happy shooting Daystates at the moment are terrible , the amount of people complaining about them is unreal , under powered, stiff bolt and the finish of the powder coating on the shroud . these are meant to be top end guns and not cheap ether Quote Link to post
Mawders 595 Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Well played VM mate. Reminds me of all the trouble I had with the pro sports and finally gave up and went back to HW. To be fair the problems you have had you wouldn't expect on a hatstand pcp let alone a day state. Something tells me you will be very happy with your new HW. Fingers crossed for you buddy.
