Well I have done gone and did it. I have been looking for a mid-power 22 pellet shooter. I wanted a fairly light weight easy to handle woods walker type gun.
I was at the air gun store and spotted a rather nice looking wood stocked gun and right off the bat it appealed to me.
I picked it up and the tag read “FX Cutlass” I knew nothing of the gun but the ergonomics were pleasing, the wood stock screamed at my nostalgic side. The price looked fairly reasonable and the condition was very good.
Sell it to me. I forewent the twisting of my arm, coming on the forum and asking why I should not buy it and any other feint indicating I was showing resistance. Nope, I was smitten. I took it to the shop’s range with the included miserable scope. What I found was a pretty accurate gun with an amazing trigger. It will be coming home tomorrow with some new glass and a decent set of rings.
I have thousands of JSB 18.13’s that have been waiting for a proper dispenser and I think I found it.
The issue I am having is there is very slim information available for this gun. I get that it is older and not a “fashionable” FX any more but two videos on YT and 2 posts here on the forum is all I have turned up.
Hoping a member here has one or had one long enough to share their opinions and thoughts on the gun.
Did I gamble? Yeah probably but the thing just spoke to me and recalling some posts here from members with the older FX guns convinced e to give it a chance.
Maybe it was the funky spring assisted lever close that got me?
