FX Smooth Twist X barrel system

[Pompkie]

Hi,

Is the black pipe the same for all calibers? I mean its dimensions and threading.

Thanks!

The shroud? I think so, .35 might be larger idk. Dreamline uses the same shroud and barrelhouse for .177-.25

177-30 for sure is.

 

[Pompkie]

No, not the shroud. The black tube threaded at both ends which covers the whole liner.

As Long_Gun_Dallas says, the barrel housing is the same for all calibers from .177 to .30, for the Dreamline, Wildcat, Maverick and Impact. However, while original Dreamline shrouded barrels will fit the Crown, the new SuperLight barrels on the Crown (and some Dreamlines) do not use a barrel housing and are therefore not perfectly interchangeable. (Actually shrouded SuperLight Crown barrels will fit a Dreamline, but not vice versa)

Oh, I had thought he meant the shroud.... so, the liner tube.... I can't confirm if that is the same size, though I would say it likely is. (I also belive ChRiSiS knows what he is talking about) I only have a .30 barrel with this system. My others are .22 superlight, and a .22 smooth twist (pre-dating barrel liners)

The barrel liner shroud (black tube) is the same for .177-30. But you also have the correct size barrel connector (silver piece between the black tube/xfer port) and the liner lock nut. Those are different between the calibers.

FX generally won't sell you the barrel connector staying warranty only. Huma sells a caliber exchange kit with xfer port, barrel connector, liner lock nut, and probe. Oh, and you'll need to make sure you have the right size liner oring spacers as the liners are different diameters between calibers

Yes i believe it is for at least the dreamline. I have a .25 and converted it into .22 using parts I ordered. You can go through FX’s site and look through schematics

Barrel house is identical .177-.30.
