    FX FX Impact M3: The Ultimate Coyote Airgun Hunting Custom Build!

    Ok so I called a regional Lieutenant today and got the best version of the interpretation I have gotten so far. If you open the Fur Bearers Digest the way it is written there is the clearest. It uses semi-colons to separate pneumatic vs. rimfire vs. crossbow vs. bow and arrow vs. centerfire. So...

    FX FX Impact M3: The Ultimate Coyote Airgun Hunting Custom Build!

    100% true. All of these accessories just make the hunting experience better. I could take a bone stock FX M3 and put it in my Bog Hog Saddle and just run it that way. Once you try Arca though, it is hard to go back to not using Arca.

    FX FX Impact M3: The Ultimate Coyote Airgun Hunting Custom Build!

    That is still a work in progress. Here in Michigan we have hunting regulations that can be muddy sometimes. There is some confusion around our nighttime hunting regulations for airguns. In one part of the regulations it states that airguns are considered firearms for all aspects of regulations...

    FX FX Impact M3: The Ultimate Coyote Airgun Hunting Custom Build!

    The FX Impact M3 is the most customizable airgun hunting platform in the industry. The all-new Loki Rail from Airmarksman and Utah Airguns just took my Arca tripod game to the next level! This new Loki Rail for the FX Impact M3 is all about weight savings and balance! I’m building out the...

    FX FX Airguns DRS Pro: How Significant is This Really?

    I realize there are quite a few international AirgunNation.com members here, but as an American.... Did you know that big-bore airguns (.35 cal and even as large as 72 cal and 20mm) many of which can now produce over 1000 FPE are now legal to hunt big game in 24 states? Many states have added a...

    Funny thing I mocked up the same thing as a joke when I saw the DRS launch. Big bore airgun considerations? LOL!

    FX FX Airguns DRS Pro: How Significant is This Really?

    I think the 65cc plenum is large enough to get some real big power numbers and I am interested to see if the valve is more similar to the Dynamic or the Impact. You can get some really high power numbers with the Dynamic valve without cranking the reg pressure. I am super interested to see what...

    FX FX Airguns DRS Pro: How Significant is This Really?

    Good points about the caliber and based on the specs, I agree that the .22 cal is the way to go. As far as "glossing over", I haven't even seen this rifle in person yet so I can't speak to real-world performance where I know I am going to want to feed it .22 cal / 30-34 gr. slugs and push them...

    No way! I think the Dynamic Block serves a different purpose than the DRS platform,. With so many different configurations, I think the Dynamic based offerings from FX will be at the core of their product offerings for quite some time. Love the valve in that thing! Super powerful and efficient.

    FX FX Airguns DRS Pro: How Significant is This Really?

    Lots of good conversations here on the FX DRS Pro. Here is a long response to get all my thoughts out after reading comments over the past 24 hours. The point of my original post was the goal of making an airgun design as close to the form of a firearm has a lot of historical examples and has a...

    FX FX Airguns DRS Pro: How Significant is This Really?

    I am seeing some comments about the DRS Pro magazine plenum and the concern that range safety officers won't know what it is and DQ you for moving with a magazine loaded or getting kicked off the shooting range for moving your gun while the magazine is still in. Some of ya are making waaaaay too...

    With the carbon fiber version of the over-the-barrel reservoir is 250 bar. The same as the Carbon Fiber bottle version on other FX platforms. 230 bar with the aluminum version.

    FX Wait... What? The FX King .35 call 500mm CAN SHOOT ARROWS TOO?

    The FX King .35 cal 500mm barrel kit with GRS Stock is the triple crown winner - THE TRIPLE THREAT! This video documents one of my major projects I was working on all through 2023 when I realized that arrows could potentially be shot out of an FX Dynamic / King. But could the platform be easily...
