Thank you Tony , Steve tiley actually owned the patent to the theoben magazines even when theoben were still active ( although I think Ben and Leo had long gone from the theoben factory by then) Tony is the font of all air gun knowledge , and to boot he's a real genuine guy who stand behind the rifles daystate sell , many years ago I damaged my huntsman buckmaster stock and for the life of me I couldn't find any carpenter to try and fix the damage to the finish of the ltd edition stock , after many failed attempts and phone calls to furniture restorers and gun makers I thought there was nothing I could do and that was that , as a last resort I rang daystate( when they were up near stone) I thought I would have to buy a replacement stock at full price , the buck master had a very expensive finish , I explained to Tony and all he said was bring your rifle in sometime tomorrow afternoon after 1.30 , so the next day I arrived with one of my prized rifles with a damaged stock , after talking to Tony for five mins he said follow me , so I did , we got to what looked like the packing area and he opened a box and produced a prototype buckmaster stock with an updated daystate engraving on the side of it , I asked how much I needed to pay and I kid you not he said " sixty pounds should cover it "! I was in shock , I expected to hear 5/600 hundred pounds , what a gent great guy and I'll never forget what a positive experience it was going to the old factory and meeting Tony whilst getting my pride and joy back to what it should be , I'll say it again , thank you Tony .

Thats amazing and sadly you dont hear enough about things like this. Ive heard nothing but good things about the company and customer service. Makes it easy to know who I want to go with as I'm looking to get into pcp air rifles in the states.

Loving the change to the shape of the fore end of the stock , flatter ,wider ,deeper, and the new forward facing angled edge are all improvements that were genuinely needed, I hope the new shape stock appears on the revere in a walnut guise , I'd buy one immediately .

Fabulous rifle. I was a bit wary to begin with, because of the stock and how light the rifle was. The stock grows on you, and I now love it . The manoeuvrability is awesome compared to my other rifles. ( Weihrauch, Kral. ) Originally bought a BSA R12 CLX Pro. It was crap so swapped for the Daystate. Best decision.

My first air rifle was an RM8 and I am looking to upgrade - don't need to, but just want to ! I have looked at many options and I think this will be the one. At this price point they are all accurate so for me it's the classic lines but with a different looking stock - IMO, Walnut is boring, laminate is quite common and Polymer just a bit too functional. The clever thing is how they have kept the classic looks and the weight down without dropping the shot count too much. To do that with an HW100 KT I would have to pay more for the Rat Works version. I also like that you can keep the length down by just having the shroud or add a moderator when you want it to be a bit quieter. Right, where's my credit card

Hi Margaret, I do like synthetic stocks but the down side of them is when they get a scratch or dent it’s there permanently. With wood stocks they can be steamed and refinished and look as good as new or even better when a professional does it. It’s a factor you should consider as trying to sell a rifle with a scratched up synthetic stock means your going to loose a lot of value.

Hi. You can fit just about any kind of scope to the Revere. Just make sure you have the right height dovetail mounts. A 4-16x50 would be just about perfect...The Sportsmatch UK website is an excellent resource to guide you on the best size mounts for any scope.

Some points, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, the sprung magazine l would expect to see on a budget gun and finally ten shot groups? Whilst I appreciate accuracy testing is important for comparison shooting from a bench rest is hardly difficult, the back of a pickup however presents more realistic in the field comparisons. Please understand that this is intended as constructive criticism and my overall impression is of a quality production, thank you 👍.

Hi William. I hear what you say. The thing is, I can't win. I shoot a group from the back of my truck and people say 'the rifle/you are a rubbish shot'. Shooting from a bench is the fairest way of showing how good a rifle is. What we are capable of is a different altogether of course!

Hi Margaret. Synthetic stocks are okay but they get scratched and dented and make selling the rifle very hard when you eventually move it on. Wood stocks get scratched and dented but can be steamed and sanded to remove any imperfections. If done by a professional a rifle stock can look even better than new. Just a thing to think about when buying a rifle and the possibility of getting a better price when you fancy a change.
