Is a 1990 Daystate Huntsman a 'collectible'?

[andrewM]

I have posted a message on the general forum of this site, asking for price guidance for an early Daystate Huntsman (with silencer and Tasco 3-9x magnification), which I bought at the Game Fair around 1990/1.

I am just wondering, however, if this is now considered to be a collectible rifle. As an early pcp, it might have crossed into this description.

Alas, I hardly use it as I prefer springers. Whilst it has hole on hole accuracy, I feel that pcps lack the character of springers, so I personally prefer the latter (probably in common with most here!). Are pcps collectibles?! Perhaps the early ones are, for they must be nearly 30 years old in some cases.

Some PCPs date back more than 30 years!! One I have dates from 1890 and no that is correct 1890..... Some 'modern 'pcps can be collectable especially notable ones....Shamals, Fieldmaster, Midas, to name a couple....it depends on people's tastes.
