Daystate Huntsman Revere
Daystate Limited · Rifle · In Production · 2020
Also known as: Huntsman Revere
Overview
The Daystate Huntsman Revere is a regulated pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle produced in the United Kingdom by Daystate. An updated take on the long-running Huntsman line, it is the first Huntsman to use a sidelever cocking action driving a mechanical slingshot hammer system. Power is delivered consistently via an integrated HUMA-Air regulator running from a 250-bar fill, giving roughly 160 sub-12 ft-lb shots or around 39 shots at the 30 ft-lb high-power setting in .22 calibre. It pairs a fully shrouded match-grade barrel with a half-inch UNF muzzle thread, an 11-shot rotary magazine, a two-stage adjustable trigger, and a hand-finished Minelli walnut sporter stock, making it a refined choice for hunting and precision field shooting.

Background
The Huntsman name is one of Daystate's oldest model lines, dating back to the company's early sporter air rifles; the Revere revival modernised it with sidelever cocking and regulated power while retaining the classic walnut-stocked sporter look.
