Just bought a Huntsman Mk2. The gun appears to be walnut stocked. I'm hoping to get my hands on it this week. I don't think parts are available any more, but hopefully nothing worse than 'o' rings........which leads me on to.....there doesn't seem to be any info on the web about 'o" ring sizes for the MK2. Does anyone know the sizes required or indeed have any more info on these?

Can’t help with the sizes but that’s a beautiful gun. Love seeing fine old guns getting use. Just got a Logun MK II Pro up and running and it’s a joy to shoot. Hope yours works out the same. Maybe Terry Robb could tell you o-ring sizes?

Maybe buy a full seal kit, then measure them all for future reference?

Nice old school rifle. If you are not very accustom to triggers, do not touch. Seal kit's are easy, likely find a firing valve/poppet also.
The Bam50 is a direct copy of a newer huntsman (nothing like your trigger) Except all fastners are different.
Should group flawless;y.
Keep us posted.

(edit, being an old school rifle oring/seals only need replacing every 10 years and only as regular maintenance. But they are likely to last 20 years+ . )

The Daystate Saga – Part 1 Getting started | Pyramyd Air Blog
by B.B. Pelletier Several readers have asked for a series on Daystate air rifles, so I'll begin today. Although Pyramyd Air doesn't sell Daystates, they are still very fine PCPs and their story is worth telling. Much of the history of the company's foundation comes from an article written by...

Resurrected post. But in case anyone else is looking, Bagnall and Kirkwood is a great resource for Daystate bits.

Realize this is old but how did it turn out? I have an old huntsman and a pair of LR90s. Only one I have ever had to touch was the huntsman. Seals were an easy swap.
