Air Ranger or Wolverine B

[jps norton]

Am considering a bottle fed Daystate and was wondering which would be a better buy between an Air Ranger and a Wolverine.

Any comments or advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks

I can't comment on the Ranger but my Daughter has a Wolverine b (mk1) with a 500cc bottle and is really happy with it. It groups as well as my Air Wolf and also feels lighter.
You could try the DOC for more detailed advice.

Got a ranger used a wolverine they shoot like the same gun to me

I have a ranger and love the gun, I would pick it over the others only on the basis of being able to adjust the power very easy if needed. I have been picking up some bits to make mine power adjustable,

I've also had the air wolf and i do like the triggers on the electric Daystates,

Had a regulated Ranger and sold it to get the Wolverine B. I really wish I'd kept the ranger.

Those early regulated Rangers were great, cannot understand why Daystate stopped fitting that excellent reg and went over to the Harper valve, well I can it was cost.

Either gun is a superb shooter but if looking at 2nd hand many rangers are now around bottle replacement age so factor that in when pricing them up, chap i know bought a mint looking gun then go told during a service his bottle will expire in 4 months....

The Ranger has served me well but I haven't shot the wolverine although I can't see there being to much difference, I would imagine though you would pick up a ranger cheaper than a wolverine which is a bonus

I will have to check the expiry date on mine, How long they last for.

Hi Bud
Now you know what you really want

I had the mk1 ranger which I feel was the best DS as it had a proper regulator, and the only DS bottle gun that did afik.. It was ok, a long rifle with silencer fitted and mine needed one, not one actual problem mate but never super accurate but now I know barrels etc can be worked on !!! I sold that to get an airwolf but sadly that was a Friday afternoon gun and I had problems and was not as good as the ARmk1, I then tried a rapid which I liked .

after speaking to you at the range, we both know what you really want, but is it a mk2 or MFR

Sorry this isn't right.Small buddy bottles are not subject to test.

BBs 400cc & under no test
The 500cc Carbon are a 10 yr life ( i think )
