Hi everyone,
Not long ago, I got a RAW HM1000x in .22 caliber with the integrated moderator (unfortunately), not the offset version. The issue I'm having is that it's pretty loud, since the built-in moderator is basically useless—and there's not much information online.

I know DonnyFL sells an adapter, but I don’t want to add more weight to the barrel by attaching a big moderator like the Ronin along with the adapter. After contacting RAW USA, they told me I could remove the integrated moderator and use a longer carbon fiber shroud with a threaded 1/2 UNF end cap they sell.

So here are my questions, especially since it’s impossible for me to send the rifle from Spain to the US:

1. Is it difficult to remove the integrated moderator? I believe it’s secured with some epoxy and set screws. Will it come off with heat?


2. After removing the moderator, I also need to take off the original carbon fiber shroud. My question is the same—can it be removed easily? Are there simple methods to take it off? Can heat be safely applied to the carbon shroud if that’s the only way?


3. Given all these complications, I considered buying a new barrel for the RAW HM1000X. RAW USA told me they can’t ship barrels to Spain, and I haven’t been able to find RAW barrels anywhere. They don’t seem to be sold in stores. Can anyone tell me where to find a RAW or at least a compatible barrel?

Any help is much appreciated. It’s surprising how little information is out there for such an extraordinary air rifle.

Now that the FX DRS Classic rifle(s) have been out for a year and folks have had a chance to evaluate them, what would you like to see changed in a V2 version?

1- Front Sling Swivel Stud

2- Do away with the three current barrels length options and offer the rifle in the best compromise length of 550mm (Classis Version).

3- Slightly larger plenum/mag

4- Offer a suppressor that matches the O.D. and finish of the stock air tube/barrel.

Please, agree, disagree and, or add your own thoughts about changes for a V2 DRS Classic rifle.

I seem to remember seeing a post where someone had made a list of the O ring sizes and some equivalents, but I am dammed if I can find it after several searches? Can anyone point me in the right direction please...

hey everyone

I’m in the beginning stages of my higher power pesting quest and playing around with slugs. I‘m partial to a lighter slug as, according to my logic, they would expand more violently, lose power faster (less chance of harmfull ricochet),… I’m not too worried about range right now as I’m only comfortable taking shots up to 55 yards tops at the moment. (distance I can consistently hit .5 of an inch at this point in time). Because I lack any practical experience with slugs in airrifles I’d love to hear you guys chime in with experience!

thanks and happy pesting,

Time to thin the herd a bit to make way for a new calve coming soon on that magic brown truck.
My wife is a little tired of seeing our bedroom looking like a gun shop, and her dresser (which faces the backyard woods) covered with countless tins of pellets and the Caldwell sitting there So, happy wife, happy life
All rifles pictured below are up for sale excepting the gray laminate FX Royale 500.
The Edgun and Brocock are fairly recent purchases, the Cricket was purchased and tuned by Charlie at Georgia Airguns in 2022.
All three have been tuned to shoot like lasers after a little care working with each one.
The Edgun was originally purchased in 177 250mm but I've since upgraded to a 30 cal 350mm barrel. I'll include all of the 177 equipment with the gun, also the original tube that was removed to accommodate the 350cc carbon tank.
It's extremely pellet friendly, but is in LOVE with the FX 44 & 50 grains.
The Brocock will shoot just about anything you put in it, but LOVES the JSB 18.13 grains.
I've recently toyed with the tune on it and currently have it set up to shoot the H&N 21gr slugs about as well as pellets.
The Cricket is an absolute beast putting out right at 90ft/lbs with the FX 50 grains.
Been protecting the birdfeeder with it lately and it will just about rip a squirrel in half with a well placed Hades.

Edgun - $2,300 - Check this gun out on Edgun West, it's the Leshiy 2 Wolverine that lists for close to $,2800
Edgun and 177 caliber accessories SOLD!
Brocock - $1,000 - Price drop to $900.00
Cricket - $1,000 - Price drop to $900.00 NLA

All three come without the scopes and cans on the end, except for the Brocock and I'll put the 0db can on it, as that's how it came to me.

I accept only Paypal F&F, unless you're willing to pay that extra % fee.
No trade offers please!
Shipped to CONUS only.
Let me know if you're interested in any of them and I'll box it up, weigh it and use your zip code on PirateShip for a shipping cost and split that 50/50 with you.
Please send me a private PM if you're interested in Facetiming and looking at any of the rifles or want close up pics of them. All are in perfect shape!

Feel free to check my credibility on here, as I've sold countless rifles here, and on the old YellowForum (if that even still exists).

Warmest Regards

Selling 3 sealed 300 count tins of JSB Hades . I sold the gun that loved them . They are needing a good home . Selling for $50 shipped with tracking to conus only . Please deal by pm . Thanks for looking..............Herb

KnockOut Slugs Falling Out Of OEM Magazine?!?​

I was shooting .25cal JSB KnockOut slugs from an RTI Prophet 3. The MKII with the flared skirts.

But many slugs fell out of my OEM magazine when I simply tilted the gun at a 45⁰ angle upwards....

▪ Do the KO's just not like the RTI OEM mags?
▪ Are aftermarket mags the solution to using KO's (because I liked their precision at 100m)?

▪ What .25cal slugs DO work in the RTI OEM mag.?


Thanks for your help!

SPF to barenger! This is my Beeman Weihrauch HW77 in .20. It was manufactured 1986 and has the older 25mm piston, which is a smoother shooting rifle than the newer 26mm piston equipped ones. Price is $525, plus $25 shipping obo. Payment by USPS money order, or cashiers check. PayPal is accepted but as friends and family only.

Yep!

My personal opinion is that the original Veteran came with the most effective OEM shroud/husher of any airgun that I've played with. They're aluminum walled, aluminum baffled, reflex type shrouds, that are essentially moderators. And moderators of a much better (more effective) design than many actual moderators.

Well, I figured out a way to install a shroud from a Vet Long onto my .20 Ghost. Since both the Vet and the Ghost use 15mm OD barrels, it wasn't too tough, just required a thread conversion to go from BRK barrel thread to 1/2x20.

The conversion makes the Ghost about 5/8" longer than an OEM BRK shroud. And my oh my my does it quiet things down!

Ghost isn't ever going to be the quietest airgun around, just too much inherent action noise. But this certainly helped. With this Vet shroud, adding a moderator on the end of the shroud doesn't make it any quieter, so I've got all the muzzle noise contained that is possible to contain. And without making it a big long broomstick like happens when you run a moderator on the end of the shroud.

And the Vet Long shroud that i tracked down is one of the more matte ones, so it matches the matte chassis of the Ghost rather well. Going to run it this way for a while and see what I think. From first impressions, it's seeming like it'll be like this from now on.

Not the greatest photo but this is what I've got....

Just wondering if they're worth a shot over JSBS as the price difference is obviously there.

Quite a bit of water was in the packaging, and on the unit, and the authenticity tag was very wet.
I want to move into pcp air rifles. The farmer above sold his land, and a 512-home subdivision is being built above our farm. Our farmland moves opposite the subdivision into the woods/river. But that has not stopped them from complaining about chainsaws, tractors, and our fences.

Why is it that in “.22” cal, most major manufacturers offer .217 and .218 (so they’re undersized quite a bit, and Nielsen goes all the way from .216 up to .219, yet in .25 it’s mainly .25 only, with a few .249 (under), or a big jump to .253 (over). In .30, that’s it, with patriot and Nielsen offering .301 and .303 as well - no under sizing…

Hello and good morning.

A friend of mine has a TX200 that splits the top breach seal. He has replaced the compression tube thinking there may be a bur cutting the seal but it did not take care of the problem.

I will ask him for a picture, but it basically is cutting the seal around the top edge and then the seal flowers out around the barrel breach.

Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Does anyone know if he's alright or how to contact him? Last I heard from him was March 23, and since then, haven't been able to get ahold of him. I have an order with him, but now I'm just wondering if he's alright. Hopefully, he's just busy. Thanks.

Small inventory of FX Leopard at Talon Airguns.
Thank you, Tony

Bought a new field target air rifle. After dealing with I don’t know how many scammers and losing $2,000 I figured I would be better off just biting the bullet and buying new from a known and respected dealer. Yes it cost me more but he didn’t steal my money and if I would have went to him in the first place I wouldn’t have lost that money. Now I have never shot field target so this will be interesting.
Thanks
hddriver1

up for sale is a Pinty tactical .22 air rifle.. This is definitely used, with a few marks (not terrible)..The rifle does have Thammers sear mod,(Very light) But I can not get the safety to WORK.. 175 shipped in con. US... Contact me here...

Precision Engineering ZAN Projectiles ELR slugs are meticulously designed and manufactured to the highest standards of quality and precision. Each slug undergoes a multi-step quality control process to ensure that it delivers consistent performance, shot after shot. The tight tolerances, uniformity, and aerodynamic design help achieve unparalleled accuracy, even at extended ranges.
Aerodynamic Design The key to achieving long-range success with airguns lies in the slug’s aerodynamic profile. ZAN ELR slugs are optimized for minimal drag, reduced wind drift, and stable flight paths. The slugs feature sleek, high-BC (Ballistic Coefficient) designs, which allow them to retain velocity and energy longer, resulting in flatter trajectories and greater accuracy.
Superior Material Selection Crafted from premium materials, such as high-quality lead or alternative alloys. These high-quality materials ensure that your shots are more accurate and predictable.

The .25 ELR slugs are available on our website . In the USA market first to receive them will be Utah Airguns in about 1 month.

- 61.3 grain/ 3.97 gr
- with BC .271 – at 976 FPS (depending on the tune),
- length 13.05 mm .

That creates PRS/Long range best slug ever made. Box contains 200 PCS, each in our standard plastic trays.

In this review, I’m taking a deep dive into the all-new FX Leopard—a purpose-built bullpup air rifle that merges tactical design with precision performance. Due to some unfortunate flooding in my main studio, I filmed this review at the 68 Whiskey Studio, and I want to thank Keith for offering up his workspace. That said, what started as a relocation turned into the perfect opportunity to test the Leopard not just on the bench, but in the field.

We’ll cover the platform’s major design updates, internal architecture, tuning system, and terminal performance using 22 grain FX Hybrids. And yes, we’ll also explore the more… creative testing protocols, including a few long-range shots on my least favorite holiday snack: Peeps.

Platform Overview – What is the FX Leopard?
At its core, the FX Leopard is a bullpup-configured evolution of several FX legacy systems, borrowing structural and mechanical DNA from rifles like the Dynamic, Maverick, and DRS Tactical. What sets the Leopard apart, however, is the integration of the over-the-barrel air source design—first seen on the DRS—but reimagined here in a much more compact bullpup frame.

Rear-Mounted Plenum – 54cc of Efficient Power
One of the most unique aspects of the Leopard is its rear-mounted 54cc plenum, tucked cleanly into the buttstock. Unlike the FX Dynamic, which places a larger plenum over the barrel, the Leopard separates the fill source and the air storage. The air tank is mounted over the barrel (like the DRS), while the plenum lives in the rear.

If you’re newer to airgun tuning, think of the plenum as your rifle’s “lungs”—the reserve of compressed air sitting just behind the valve, ready to deliver a consistent blast behind your projectile. The size of the plenum directly influences how much power the gun can generate, particularly for slugs and heavier projectiles.

Using the common rule of thumb—1cc of plenum per 1 FPE (or 0.5cc per FPE for high-efficiency builds)—this 54cc setup can support anywhere from 54 to 100 foot-pounds, depending on how the rifle is tuned.

Tuning Systems – Macro, Micro, Regulator, and Shared Tune Logic
Like all modern FX platforms, the Leopard features the Quick Tune System, allowing shooters to adjust the macro hammer spring, micro fine-tune wheel, and regulator pressure. This triad of adjustments gives shooters full control over power output and efficiency.

Ergonomics and Trigger System – AR Familiarity Built In
FX has been dialing in its AR-style ergonomics, and the Leopard takes it even further. The UTG1 grip offers a thick palm swell, defined finger grooves, and a trigger reach geometry that lands naturally with standard AR depth.

They’ve also equipped this platform with the same trigger shoe from the DRS Tactical—a flatter, wider AR-style shoe that gives excellent feel and repeatability. For those coming from AR-15 or AR-10 platforms, this will feel extremely familiar.

DonnyFL Yokozuna – More Than a Suppressor
While the Yokozuna is a highly effective suppressor, I’ve also been using it as a mechanical barrel tuner. On previous FX models with less rigid barrels, harmonic tuning via suppressor length and weight adjustments was a game-changer.

Field Testing – Slug Efficiency and Terminal Ballistics
With a 310cc air source, the Leopard isn’t running massive onboard capacity, but has the ability to use add on external bottles for over 890cc of on board air! However, even with just the over the barrel air source, its valve efficiency and shot curve performance with the FX Hybrids was outstanding. Despite running a lightweight 22-grain slug, the platform delivered tight, consistent groups and enough retained energy to ethically and effectively dispatch small game.

Keith from 68 Whiskey joined me to talk about field experience with the FX Hybrids, highlighting their ability to expand violently on contact. Unlike traditional pellets that often lack punch on marginal hits, the FX Hybrids act more like hyper-expanding hollow points. We discussed their tendency to anchor game animals immediately, especially on tougher targets like squirrels with small vital zones. Being able to experience Keith's culinary skills, where we grilled those squirrels into smoked squirrel tacos, was an awesome treat!

I promised a recipe, so here it is:
Shoot Squirrel with FX Airgun, slow cook over open fire, Bourbon Trail Grillworks grill, eat squirrel. Enjoy! LOL!

FX has once again pushed the boundaries of what an airgun can be. The Leopard isn’t just another modular rifle. It’s a fully thought-out precision platform—and in my book, it is a major step forward in airgun innovation.
