The Daystate MK4 was already wearing the crown for being the most advanced PCP air rifle on the planet when
Daystate updated to iS (information Screen) status a couple of years ago. The new information screen brought into
view the state-of-the-art technology hidden inside this incredible electronic air rifle, and also gives the
shooter ultimate control via its user-programmable options.
Now Daystate are launching a target stocked version with a similar shape to the Platinum Limited edition that
the company launched last year.
Inside the Panther is a revolutionary MCT electronic firing system that generates a super quick lock-time -
the period between the squeeze of the trigger and the pellet’s acceleration along the barrel - that’s up to five
times faster than a conventional, mechanically-driven PCP. Additionally, the shot-to-shot consistency is
effectively digitally-regulated courtesy of the MCT’s sophisticated electronic monitoring system.
Whilst the phenomenally-fast firing cycle makes it easy to get outstanding down-range results, the MK4 Panther
is backed by numerous other accuracy enhancing features, from an electronically-operated, fully-adjustable match
trigger to a Walther target-grade barrel that is fitted with an adjustable compensator.
Yet despite the cutting edge technology within, the MK4 is also a stunning looker, with a target stock
originally created by top stock designer, Gary Cane and now produced by the stock master craftsmen Minelli of
Italy. The finish on the Panther is the second outing for Daystate’s “Soft Touch” rubberised finish that is
applied over a wood frame – no flimsy plastic here! 169
