Why air rifle bottles need replacing
Airgun buddy bottles are high pressure vessels, albeit for ‘surface use only’. Therefore, you must test and / or replace PCP airgun buddy bottle every 10 years. This is important. If you fail to do this, it may result in your air rifle becoming dangerous. Daystate recommends that you have your Daystate PCP air rifle checked over at one of our Authorized Service Centres.
