    If it's not a mk5 then they are utter fools. The mk4 was a best seller and currently they have nothing that replaces it.

    I was looking at the 2nd hand MKIVs for a while but the asking prices were very high. I also think that the MKIV was their best rifle alongside the Huntsman. I really can not get myself to like the other rifles that they keep on bringing out. Don't get me wrog they are brilliant and so on but not for me.

    Has another air rifle manufacturer ever enjoyed such an intense disciple following as Daystate? I was informed that their rifles are made abroad and only assembled here; any truth to that?

    I have also heard this rumor. TBH unless you are there when they are putting the bits together it is anyone's guess. This may also be due to the ownership of the company. The same parent company ( Diana Group, nothing to do with Diana air rifles btw) also own Minelli the stock makers.

    I maintain that there is a certain sort of person that buys into the Daystate marketing rubbish.
    Nine carat gold and either ticks or stripes on their 'sportswear'.
    More to be pitied than scolded I think.

    The same can be said for all brand snobbery. It isn't just Daystate that provide expensive blinged up rifles and people can choose to spend their money how they wish.
    You can spend thousands and still miss a barn door or spend just enough and enjoy yourself. If you haven't got the talent to start with a million pound won't fix it. Whippet, Russell, a few bang sticks and a flat cap. http://www.smart-tech1st.co.uk

    Although I own a regal, I'm no daystate fan. they have seriously lost their way in recent times I think. Although my regal has had its problems, it is one very pretty traditional looking rifle and is stupendously accurate. The MK4 sporter is one of the best looking airguns ever made and i really hope this is a replacement for it.

    so..you are saying daystates are for chavs?? what a strange world you live in lol.

    Weihrauch?? I think there are more loyal fans of weihrauch than daystate.

    who cares where the parts are made or assembled really?

    Got to agree with the above, I had a mk4 and was superb and I'm sure a mk5 model would be a top seller
