It acts just the same as the FX or other side levers, when you close it, it locks itself closed effectively. OP, what do you mean about the lack of a positive click? Surely the hammers setting is the sound you're after in a lever like this. Interested as mine is the Brazilian one and feels...

Cool. Sounds a bit dry though, I'd get some grease over that barrel.

I can assure you (being a Colibri owner) that picture has no real mechanical similarities to the current one so I wouldn't worry about them calling it a Colibri. It's certainly not the same Colibri with the semi function hooked back up, totally different. I would imagine it will have a...


Barrell doesn't stop there, goes right through the block to the rear. the cocking action slides over the barrell on the original Colibri if you look behind the block the barrell is out the other end, the blue rod is the connecting rod from the cocking bolt slider to the action at the back to...

Lucky man, not so much for the gun but for having a wife that's willing to buy you one. Well done mrs Johns(?) Lucked out with the stock too didn't you, enjoy!

Nice work to all the buyers! You will love it if it works as good as my Brazilian one (which I'm sure it will). Totally transforms the gun for me.

The smaller Huggett looks the part but don't expect miracles of sound suppression! I have one myself and it's made beautifully but if you're after quiet it's not the moderator you need. The regular size Huggett would be a far better investment on that front.

I'm not sure if the effect on the cylinder Lloyd mentions is a defect as such, ive seen this look to the newer FX guns and it's almost like fine fibres in the finish and it's been in the wildcats I've seen. Only thing id be really annoyed at would be the shorter air cylinder. The prototype...

Did you get one? I like the look of these, well I did until FX decided to shorten the cylinder (best bit was the equal length barrel and cylinder) Just watched an interesting video from a big dealer in the UK and he's sending the whole lot he ordered back to FX! Also some interesting comments...


Agreed. Funnily enough I was just reading elsewhere they should make a walnut Compatto. I think that new one would look a whole lot better with the carbon bottle, better shroud and a weaver rail. The Compatto would be very cool with a walnut option and loose the pussy looking dovetail rail.

Man, you should have given them your details! What were they gonna do? Send a hit round lol You did NOTHING wrong posting the thread you did (assuming it was all legit) What you've inadvertently done is made things worse for yourself bud. Should have just left the thread and posted the...

So why remove the thread? Doesnt that go against everything the majority of people want to keep about forums? People moan about over moderation on here, (especially where FX are concerned) and now you've proved yourself a part of that whole "hush hush" mentality. If they have suggested you...

Ha, 1980's springer standard, made me laugh. But true though! I guess it's not really practical for them to shoot long distance groups though. But to be fair they shouldn't have to be doing it anyway!

I had one of the original plastic printed ones, was me that posted the pics of the up Close defects with my side plate. It seems I was unlucky with the side plate cover on mine as everyone else has said theirs is nicer looking. But then it's only the visuals and I can sort that when I get...

Get some decent batteries too. This type of high drain electrical stuff really eats alkaline batteries. Biggest mistake I used to make years ago with digital cameras was using Duracell AA's thinking they were the 'best'. It would eat them in minutes. I switched to decent lithium batteries...
