Chrono it. If it has the 2 batteries soldered to the PCB, find out when they were last changed.
I'm needing some urgent advise please.
Going to look at and test out one of the above with an MTC Viper 10x44 scope. Having never shot a
Daystate can anyone tell me if there's anything to keep my eye out for?
Thanks,
Andy

They power the trigger mech and the firing solenoid. They will last a long time as long as they are looked after. Just that if it was still on the 1st set you'd need to look at getting them done at some point.
Might also be worth going through all of the programable features accessed through the trigger. I'm sure the manual was available on the Daystate site that explained each of the 6 settings.
Check it is definately a reg'd action? The reg is a small cylinder that sits between the 2 batteries on the PCB (obviously the reg is actually part of the board )

If it shoots great and you like it id say buy it,
Battery's are easy and cheap to replace and I have had a few MK3's now from the standard sporter to the RT & FRT and apart from replacing the battery they have been lovely guns to shoot and shoulder,
Deadly accurate and very quiet with a HW silencer so a good HFT / FT or a hunting gun,
The stocks on the later ones were much nicer but that's a personal choice,
Good luck if you buy it and im sure you will love it.

Thanks Harry, I only discovered this for sale today. I'm more used to my AA TX200 and S200 but I have a feeling it's going to be an
expensive day tomorrow. I also have someone bringing in an AA MPR Triathon for my son to try.
With the package there are two stocks, two moderators, muzzle brake adjustable butt and hamster with a few other bits and pieces.
Can't wait to have a try.

What club you in (mvac)
I'm sure my son will love HFT but he's interested in 10m just at the moment. I fear if I introduce him to HFT now
(he's only 13) he'll miss out on target shooting.
Just for your information I have paid a deposit on the Daystate and will pick it up tomorrow. I bought if from Stu
who is a member of MVAC, you might know him?
