deputy dog Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Just on the verge of buying my first Daystate rifle albeit a few weeks away. Now i know these rifles are very accurate an silent with the standard MK5 carbon silencer. But after reading a few reviews on these new Shrouds /Mods etc and seeing the the hefty price tag for them. Its got me wondering are they worth the money as an active accessory ie reducing the sound even more, then sticking with the stsndard MK5 carbon mod. Or are they just another glamour and glitz bit to make your airgun look good but with out any proper working function. DD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 The Mk5 Airstream is good enough to be honest Gar but if you want something that is that little quieter and is that nicer to look at then get a Huggett Shroud and Silencer. I've got Huggett Shrouds and Belita silencers on both my Huntsman Classic and Air Ranger rifles but got a Mk5 Airsteam silencer on my new Ltd Edition Forester rifle. Both will do a good enough job for you mate. ATB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruno22rf Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 The Airstream MK5 is pants-if you want quiet then try the weihrauch offering-quite a few Daystates have been supplied with poor quality adaptors (the 2 threads are misaligned) but as long as yours is ok you should have no problems-does add a bit of length to the gun though. Take your gun to a dealer and try one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deputy dog Posted August 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Thanks for the feed back lads, will look into the Hugget a little more. By the way is there a MK6 airstream silencer or not. Seems there is news of it but no clarification on one. DD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deputy dog Posted August 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Haha Daystate boy indeed, he defo likes his rifles though fair play to him. If I buy and Hugget shroud/moderator Terry, then it will be a little later on in the year bud. It's going I cost a packet actually buying the gun plus a few accessories and at about £125+ for a standard a shroud an standard moderator it's not cheap buy any standard. But in all fairness I'm such a good shot that I don't really need a moderator as the target is nearly always dead so will not be able I hear the shot lol hahaha. What day are you going to the Midland Gamefair then Terry, I'll be going on the Sunday as I did last year, so if you are going on that day, then we can make a time an place to meet up for chat over a tea an bacon roll.

Unfortunately Mark we will defo be going on the Sunday as per the norm with the people I'm going with. I would have preferred Saturday as I could have been out with my new rifle Sunday. But the people I go with have been going on Sundays for years now. Never mind though mate we'll cross paths one day lol. DD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
