    Daystate mk3 v mk3rt

    Does anyone know the differences between the 2 mentioned??:
    Is one just a later version of the other? Any input would be welcome. Thanks in advance. Mark

    Thumbhole stock

    Hi Mark,
    I have just bought a MK3rt Deluxe and i am sure the difference is rt= right thumbhole stock,I am not 100% sure but i think this is the only difference.

    MK3 sport has a electronic regulator and not so nice woodwork.. 50-60 usable shots

    MK3RT has a mechanical regulator and grade 3-4 walnut thumbhole stock and 110-120 usable shots.

    Mk3 sporter stock on RT?

    As the title suggests, can a sporter stock be fitted to the Mk3 RT action. I am not a fan of thumbhole stocks so can they be swapped?
