Long Term Owners Review of the Daystate Huntsman Revere Safari.

[@PaulBeCareful]

Cheers, Denny! You should definitely check out CARM magazines-they’re leagues ahead of the rattling OEM ones and cost only a third of the price. Plus, they’ve got a smaller version, perfect if you want to use lower scope mounts. As for the Safari finish, it’s done by raising the wood grain on the bare stock with a bit of water and skipping the sanding. That rough texture is then treated with stain and finish-quite unique, really! My Revere is FAC-rated, but it only manages 10 shots rather than 10 magazines, haha. Don’t take it out too often, but when I do, it’s rock solid!

Hi Denny, i have Revere and i can honestly say its definitely a keeper, as accurate as anything out there and not really pellet fussy, i have the one piece walnut stock, the floating barrel does feel like its loose and the rifle feels flimsy when you say tap the stock with your hand, this is perfect normal, at first i thought my rifle was missing something??? But no, 2 of my friends bought them after shooting mine and theirs are exactly the same, and you just demonstrated exactly what im trying to say, you know when you own or have used one. Trigger is sublime and the rifle is dependable. You can do loads of reviews or opinions on most rifles so don't worry about grabbing it again and letting us know how you feel about it. Ohh and check that magazine still has a tiny pin each side of the hinged gate.

The Revere is a phenomenal gun and has a few niggles but ive never had an issue with the new gated magazines. sady i had to sell mine to fund another gun but i kept my 9 year old daystate huntsman Regal to hunt with and bought the Safari stock as i wanted something a bit more tactile to hold than the polished wanut stock. As for accuracy out to 40yds, it's as good as anything being made today,even my Airmaks Krait The rear butt pad part of the safari stock is a different shape and narrower compared to the walnut stocked revere so wont fit and i would imagine difficult to find one that fits snug.

Heyup Denny, one of the most practical robust pcp for hunting I've known, consistent enough to give confident results, great content buddy, cheers, Jon 👍Hawkes eye TV 👍😁

Really nice rifle. I noticed the last shot out the magazine leaving it empty would missalighn the magazine & barrel, snagging on the probe o-ring when decocking on an empty mag. Does that make sense? I 'fixed' mine by taking it apart & soldering a small shim like ball so it aligns nicely. Maybe you cover this still watching the vid 😅 The barrel rattle in the figure 8, I added one layer of black electric tape around the inside. It still allows for a bit of movement but eliminates the rattle.

The revere name comes from Paul Revere who, during the American War for Independence, came galloping in to inform the troops that ‘the British’ were coming, and given Daystate’s presence in the American market

Certainly is a fine looking rifle..and as always great to get a real owner's perspective 👍👍

[@Ratsinthereticles]

Steve thank you for watching and your great input as always mate your a top geezer! 👊🏻

[@crazycressy7986]

Great looking rifle bud

[@crazycressy7986]

The barrel might be a free floating barrel. This gives better barrel harmonics ?

[@jonbool]

hi great videos, was wondering do you know is there any difference in the power and accuracy between the revere and the safari thanks

[@Ratsinthereticles]

Hi mate your question is a bit confusing as the safari is the Revere mate Itd the same rifle just a different stock that’s all but all the mechanics, barrel trigger etc is the same as for power that all depends on laws in your country.

[@Airgunfunrich]

Are those westhunter scope mounts mate?

[@Ratsinthereticles]

They sure are Rich there fantastic mounts mate can’t fault them.

[@Airgunfunrich]

@@Ratsinthereticles totally agree!
