Q:

Daystate huntsman mk2 multi shot conversion

Hi I am taking a real shot in the dark here but maybe someone somewhere can help.
I own a Daystate Huntsman mk2 in .22
The gun is a single shot and made around 1995
I have seen very little information on these older guns but I just love mine.
I saw a little info on very old posts somewhere that someone called Mr Ed was making a multi shot conversion for the BAM 50 with a side lever cocking system.
the post then went on to say that these could perhaps be fitted straight on to the daystate hunsman mk2 as they were a direct copy of the Huntsman mk2.
unfortunatly the thread was never finished, but the post was done around 2004.
I saw several pictures where mr Ed had made quite a few of these.

I have done all the searches and this is my last hope
as the people on hear have always helped me in the past.
So far I have come up with nothing really.

My question is simple enough.
Does anyone know if these were ever completed and produced did they work? and most importantly can you still get them? and if so where?

If anyone knows anything or maybe knows of a different Machinest who could produce these.
please let me know as I would be very interested.

I saw a post on youtube where a guy had one on his Huntsman mk2.
Unfortunatly I can not contact him to find out where he got his,vid was posted 2 weeks ago so I know that somewhere it can be done,

I tried the Daystate forum UK and No one could help
All the best.

Last I talked with BigEd, he is slowly coming back. He did make a couple of adapters with a pressure gauge, but I’ve not heard about any progress on the SL or MS conversions. I wouldnt hold my breath. I’ve been waiting on a pressure gauge from him for a while now. Hopefully he will square hisself away and get things going again.

not going to have much luck with Big Ed
he kinda burned a few folks but is slowly trying to make a comeback

Daystate themselves did a conversion for the Huntsman
kind of a crazy device using a short tube fed detachable magazine and a sliding breech block
to load you retracted the bolt then slid the block across before closing the bolt to chamber the pellet

you might check AoA as they still have a few of these and have them advertised on the Used Guns page if you scroll all the way to the bottom

Make your own video to post on Youtube. Entitle it Daystate Huntsman MKII. Sit there holding your gun and ask the same questions. The guy who posted the recent video is likely to see it. Give him a way to respond to you. Just a thought.
