Overview
The Reximex Daystar is a Turkish pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle produced by Reximex. It is a multi-shot sporting rifle cocked by a smooth side-lever action and fed from a detachable rotary magazine holding 12 pellets in .22 (14 in .177, 10 in .25). Built around a 260cc removable aluminium air cylinder filled to 250 bar, it uses a fluted, choked steel barrel fitted with an air stripper and a 1/2 inch UNF thread for a sound moderator. The Daystar features a four-way adjustable match trigger, adjustable power, a built-in pressure gauge and an 11mm/22mm dovetail rail, and is offered with either a synthetic or Turkish walnut ambidextrous stock with adjustable cheek piece. It is aimed at small-game hunting and target shooting.
