I really like that stock. Wooden, thumbhole, and dark green is my favorite colour!
Is it a single shot or mag? |

Hi Jwab,
One of your pics on trade me is from the daystate website, it says 80ft/lb’s, is that correct? Is it power adjustable? |

Hi Pete, Hi Pete, It's theoretically capable of 80fpe but running 30fpe at the moment on jsb heavy pellets. Power can be adjusted by playing with the hammer spring tension. I haven't tinkered with the hammer spring this 30fpe more than enough for me to shoot rabbits and increasing power will increase air consumption. Cheers |

Interesting.
I don’t know much about daystates. Is the hammer spring externally, or at least easily, adjustable? 80ft/lbs is a serious amount of energy, it would be more then enough to get heavy, 30ish grain slugs up to their preferred velocity of 950ish fps. A few more questions if you don’t mind, Length of the barrel? Volume of the bottle and fill pressure? Is it regulated, and if so can it be adjusted? Does the air ranger have the electronically controlled trigger? How old is this rifle? Thanks, Pete. |

Hi Jwab,
No problem. It was bound to sell with such a beautiful stock 😉 |
