    Another Daystate LE

    On the cover of the latest AGW the new Daystate LE for a princely sum of £1990. It looks like a tarted up version of a Wolverine B. What is the point I ask and I am a fan of Daystates.

    While they keep selling, Daystate will keep making them...
    Good deals with these members

    I still choke on that price tag, but apparently everyone who has handled and shot it is raving about it in terms of look, feel and quality - it even seems to be accurate and to power - but that should be a given. I don't really get the whole deal on the name either, and would have liked this to be electronic or regged, but they are selling them with ease, so it's hard to say they have not got it right. I don't buy designer clothes - but they sell!

    It's also the 'launch rifle' for the Wolverine II, plus the LE stuff.

    These rifles sell, so people must want them. No one is forced to buy them but many choose to do just that. The rest writes itself, really.

    With the greatest respect to everyone - I would hope that looks, feel, quality, accuracy and power ARE all evident on a gun that costs nearly 2k.

    Like T said - people still buy them - might as well let them crack on eh?

    Won't be me though.

    Well I just bought one, no better then my Weihrauch 100 but I think it looks great and performs well.

    I can happily afford it and no one else I know has one so why not

    Except they don't make the rifles, well the majority of the thing anyway. All Daystate do is assemble the parts shipped into the UK. Nothing special about the operation, only the price for the many LE's which maybe, possibly a sound investment if you live to a ripe old age
