    That price is just extracting the urine.

    The gun looks like its in response to rifle likes the Kalibr Cricket / Airgun Tech Vulcan (?) / Evanix max / FX Bobcat ect

    Bullpups tend to be ugly and Daystates effort is no different, hell its worse than the above rifles.

    Oh and again that price

    £2000 daystate are having a laugh, looks like a edgun rip off, i can't see daystate surviving much longer with prices like this, unrealistic rifle at a unrealistic price.

    I believe Daystates are not currently that highly revered in the states.
    I only say that because of some of the comments made on other forums.

    I like mine apart from the stupid price of a battery and the poor magazine.

    Hi Scrane, whats the word on Daystates in your neck of the woods?

    Scratch yourself like you think the zoom meeting has ended.

    I bought a Daystate Airwolf tactical only 2 weeks ago, so I was a bit saddened to hear a new rifle was already been released.

    But



    Now I don't give a rats, as it's beyond a joke what they have priced it at. Also what is with the ugly cocking lever? It looks like it was broken and a bolt has been put in as a temporary measure to cock it.

    Not a very nice rifle and for that money I'd rather import another Edgun.

    Never mind, the mk4 version will be out in under two years and and no doubt there will be a few even more expensive ltd edition versions of it.

    Thing is Daystate are very good at what they do, but we in the Uk has others have said account for a tiny bit of there market whilst the rest of the world that have sensible power levels are there main market. Daystates are allways a sort after rifle but I beleve there way overpriced here for what they are Has said mine is 2nd/3rd hand cost me under £300 from here a few years back, it works fine for my needs and was made the same week my 16 year old son was born the rifle is a Huntsman FTR and its better behavded than the 16 year old. I beleve the time will come that Daystate may price themselves out of the market, has near £2,00 for an air rifle is way to rich for my tastes and pocket.
