woody289 Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 Hi I have an older model of the daystate x2 sports, the one before they were fit with pressure gauges. It's in immaculate condition and hardly used complete with bsa sweet 17 sights. As I haven't been on the shooting scene for years I'm just wondering how much would one of these be worth, and is it a good air rifle to start shooting with again at beginner level. Ie I dont have much time for deep maintenance and servicing I know these rifles need. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blasterjudd Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 I've got one too for hunting rabbits and pigeons there one of the best pcp guns daystate manufactured you will have no problems with accuracy or power, a quality gun built to last have fun with it. A full service is only £50 if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody289 Posted June 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 Thank you, need to get it checked over before going out. Also need to start asking around for private land to shoot on as I've moved areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biffo Posted June 13, 2015 Report Share Posted June 13, 2015 Hi woody, seals seem to last about 5 years or so, more if its been stored properly, so its likely to need attention at some point soon (guessing its 2006 or older ?). Even if its holding air now, using it "in anger" will probably provoke a leak - not trying to put a downer on it, just talking from my own experience. I have an X2 in .22, seals went when it was 4.5 years old (previous owner had always left it half full of air ). X2's don't fetch the money they should, especially the older versions without a gauge. I've watched them go for stupidly low prices or just not sell, which is madness because they are an excellent gun. The X2R in .177 fetches better money as it has a reg. If you want to get it serviced, Daystate will charge you £175 plus postage both ways (unless you live close enough to drop it in), and a cool £240 if its the reg'd version XTX is £100 to service, £150 if its reg'd (again, plus postage) A seal kit is usually about £10 from Daystate if you wanted to have a go yourself - but a reg would need sorting by a "professional".
