pianoman 3,587 Posted November 25, 2017 Report Share Posted November 25, 2017 I've put Helen's .177 Daystate Huntsman up for sale in the classifieds here, along with a Hawke Endurance 30, 3-9x42 scope, 30cm mounts and Airstream silencer; plus a near-tinful of Air Arms Diablo Express 4.52mm pellets it seems to like! Helen doesn't bother with it, it's too bloody good a rifle to be stuck in a cabinet. It absolutely outclasses the Daystate Regal supposed to replace it. And it hasn't yet shot a full tinful of pellets through it. I shot on my garden range to test it at 35 metres and it's a bloody awesome little gun. Full-power consistent on a 160-bar fill. I fired about 6 magazines worth through it (60 shots) and it didn't miss a beat! Brand new in 2015, it's still as new as the day we bought it. Absolutely mint condition rifle. Have a look and check out what's on offer.. This one is a genuine supergun and you won't find a finer example. Cheers chaps. Simon/Pianoman. 1 Quote Link to post

pianoman 3,587 Posted November 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 Thanks for this Jimmy. Well, you've seen it for yourself. Helen just didn't get the shooting bug! And Daystate should have continued building the Huntsman and Regal exactly like this. Everything screwed together proper and none of that silly Harper valve thing they came up with for the Regal. It is a genuine, full power, superb rifle in walnut that's been almost untouched. Brand new the whole rig was over a thousand quid. £800 rifle. £60 silencer. £230 scope. £1,290 in total. It's going for a tad under half that total. Someone is going to be lucky bagging this for what it's going for. Or if not, I might look for a lefty stock for it and keep it for myself.
