just found this beauty, daystate royal. A limited edition being sold in the UK in the next few months.
I like the extended Minelli stock - covering the entire cylinder. It reminiscent of the [retired] Huntsman. All of the Daystate limited editions sell out quickly. I think this one will go especially fast. If I had one wish, it would be for an optional spacer (of the same color) to be available to take the place of the barrel band. I know they put it on because consumers feel like a barrel band is needed, but I do not fall into that category. I absolutely love the look of an unbridled barrel. I even went so far as to modify my Marauder.

It's not strictly an official daystate special edition as such, it's to commemorate a 35 year alliance with the airgun centre in Essex. I think they've both come up with the design. Only 150 are being produced and I may be mistaken but I think they're all sub 12 flb.

The stock, bolt and breech block look nice, but it is a shame they couldn't be bothered to have matching magazine, cylinder, barrel and silencer.

Got a price on that daystate royale, are you sitting down? £1700 or $2575. For that price your hitting pulsar territory.

Individually I think the pieces are nice but, it just doesn't all come together to make a good looking rifle IMO (especially for the price). I have a Regal XL and love the looks of it so it's not really the shape/form but the colors and the way they contrast that I don't like. I am with ted about the longer stock the covers the entire air tube. I really like that shape.
