rayhallam Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 hi, I'm thinking of upgrading from AA S410 Superlite to a Daystate huntsman regal. has any one got any oppinnions to throw into the melting pot. any comments appreciated. ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno22rf Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 (edited) Without wishing to be argumentative-how is that an upgrade? The S410 will match the Regal on every level except price and appearance. I got rid of my AA S400 to get a Daystate MK3 and I can honestly say that the Daystate only sports a Wow factor above the AA and nothing else. If you were to judge them on mechanical reliability then the AA is a Toyota-the Daystate is a Ford-a nice Ford but still a Ford.

Theskyfox Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Agreed. It sounds more like you are "Z" pathing so to speak. Both really good guns, but by an "upgrade" I would have expected you to say you are looking at getting a regulated Steyr LG110 or so.... -Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayhallam Posted February 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 cheers for that just testing the water.Couldn't make my mind up but both of you have helped. think I'll stay with my 410 then I had a Toyota so I know where you're coming from only a carina E 144k no trouble at all ray Agreed.

bullet boy Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 The AAS410 and Huntsman Regal are outstanding rifles. Theres no real difference between the two-both are quality precision Air-Rifles!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTS Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 there is a gorgeous huntsman regal in at my local RFD - special stock £60 extra from daystate and its truly stunning but as above its all about the looks rather than upgrade in performance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael170874 Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 The regal is just a huntsman nothing else same internals etc.i had the huntsman classic brand new it was **** it whent back within a week to daystate low power magazine faults low shot count etc .keep your airarms bud.

evo Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 I have both those rifles mentioned,, whats the difference ? AAs410 great gun reliable and accurate,, daystate huntsman = accurate light, reliable, and a total pleasure to shoot, which one do I prefer to use for hunting,, well for me its the huntsman all day long, the huntsman has super smooth cocking and as far as I,m concerned is built with better quality materials, as for the BSA r10 mk2 ,,, I also have one and have to say ,,so far I am very impressed,, what gun out the three would I pick to hunt with ?,, well sorry but its the huntsman again,, its your choice but in my honest opinion you would be MAD to pick the 410 over a huntsman, but as said that's MY opinion, I would also pick the r10mk2 over the 410 but have to say until I felt the quality of the daystate rifles my 410 did the job and did it well as for michael170874,s comments, just ask him how many different rifles he has bought new and sent back , he must be the most heavy handed person on the planet,he hates daystate through his own experiences and will jump at any chance to slag daystate off,,but that's his opinion, I also own a daystate Airwolf,,again a faultless rifle ,never misses a beat,, but again I would pick the huntsman first to take out hunting,,MY opinion mind, atb Evo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retromlc Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 (edited) If you wanna up grade go for a HW100, I was watching a u tube vid about the air ranger knocking over pins at 32 meters,I thought wow,I put 5 pins out at same distance and knocked all 5 over with 5 shots,on left the pin in wood after I'd knock the plastic bit of,1 shot and I'd knocked that off as well,awesome kit Edited February 4, 2014 by retromlc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
