Daystate...43 years ago...

[Daystate]

Hi Everybody,

I (Tony Belas) recently visited Doncaster airgun range here in the UK and they keep a pile of older donated airgun magazines for visitors. In a copy of Airgun World dated January 1980 I found this article, which I reproduce here without the magazines permission as I don't believe they will mind and anyway its out of its 40 year copyright!

Apart from giving a near first-hand the foundation story of Daystate, It does show the contrast between the company then and now. What we are doing now of course would have been materially, financially and technically impossible then!

Excellent, thanks for sharing, and being part of our community.

I have heard Tony discussing this story on a youtube video. Very interesting to me.
