Daystate are the worst air weapons manufacturer in the country. Their support is shocking, they're quality control is at no where near the price point of the Rifles... The guns have reasonable barrels and we'll designed mechanical actions, the electronic triggers however are on version 8 or 9... Now imagine you were the poor b*****d that bought version 2? None of that electronic trigger? It won't have been warranty it's was basically a defective product from the get go. Daystate have taken people's money to develop a product, rather than develop a product and them taken peoples money. My RFD is remis about selling me Daystate because when I move a grand or more on an air weapon I demand perfection, and they know that the Daystate sold to me will go back.... And they also know that Daystate WILL quibble over the warranty. They also have such a backlog of Daystate repairs and warranty claims its shocking. The members of this forum will tell ya mate... We all know why Daystate are shit. Its mainly the company's attitude toy their customers which sucks the big one. I'd like a regal, nice stock, the guns growing on me. But I learn from the experience of others... If that Regal was a dud... Id be stuffed... Thats why this place has that attitude towards Daystate. Cos they've fallen short of the mark so many times. 2 Quote Link to post

Absolutely well Put JF . Had a regal , loved the looks , how it shouldered , but it stops there . I owned the gun for 6 weeks but kept sending it back to be repaired. Out of the 6 weeks daystate had for 4 weeks . This seems to be normal for daystate crap 1 Quote Link to post

I'd love a Regal, they are well growing on me. But when ab RFD won't sell me a gun they have in stock when they've had thousands of my pounds...... Something is wrong. And Daystates customer attitude is what's wrong Quote Link to post
mark williams 7,550 Posted July 17, 2022 Report Share Posted July 17, 2022 I can't speak a word about Daystate rifles as I`ve always steered clear of them since listening to the many bad reports on the various forums about them. I can however mention a fella in one of the ranges I went to was a right guru at gunsmithing and was " forever" repairing them. The huntsman was always on his work bench. My cup of tea is spring piston rifles, never do they give any type of trouble and they have all shot a hillside of vermin, all are every bit as accurate as any PCP if I get my part right. 3 Quote Link to post
