Introducing the FX Maverick
- Thread starter FX-USA
- Start date
Fx is still ignoring us southpaws? Too bad, guess I'll buy that Vulcan, or Uragan, or Daystate, or Cricket, or another HW100BP.

I have 2 FX's Wildcat and a Dreamline. I'm a lefty never had a issue. Seems the cocking is on the right side for us though.

So FX is finally entering the high power, slug shooting market,
yet the shot count is unmatched. I'm intrigued by how cutting
edge technology continues to take air guns in various directions.
The amazing air efficiency and removable air bottle make this
one tactically inclined rifle, without various vulnerabilities like a
beautiful wooden stock, digital display that if cracked from one
drop could make $3,000 go right down the toilet., etc. It's
definitely not as rugged as an Evol 30, with all metal magazines,
as the plastic cover that various high end products seem to have
has always been a thorn in my side. At least Daystate is using
all metal mags, yet I wonder why they've yet to offer the Brockock
Commander in .30, to match the Wolverine 2 .303's power,
with a rugged, tactical stock. I love the aesthetics of their Cane=Minelli
stocks they use, but if I'm dropping $2-3,000, I want something that
will last in a God forbid scenario, whereby your air gun could keep you
alive, regardless of the task at hand.

I was curious about this. I have a texan lss .457 , and I want a compact repeater , capable of quick follow up shots while keeping the target acquired. From a bench , I can see the advantage of the cocking lever on the left keeping right hand on the trigger, but if you aren't on a bench, if you have the cocking lever or bolt on the left , I would think you would lose target acquisition if you have to use your left hand to advance the next round . What side is really better for a right handed shooter? Since I have to buy without trying, I would really appreciate the advice from someone with experience with both configurations. I saw the Uragan can be configured wither way .

It's still well behind the the modified impacts on power. Show me over 130 fpe in .30 cal and I'll be impressed. It's a huge improvement in value though so I like it.

The cocking mechanism is on the same side as all the other guns I don't understand I've seen the comment "why is it on the left side" a couple times now. The "Right Profile" picture you can see the cocking lever....

I’m personally excited, I was trying to pick between the wildcat mk3 or impact compact in 30 cal. It’s kinda the best of both worlds, now I just hope a high capacity mag kit comes out.

I don't think they'll have a larger mag for these since it's on top. The impact mag is underneath and mostly out of the way.

So is the valve adjustable like on impact?
I cant find any info about it. i think it is not

It’s a wildcat mk3 action which doesn’t have the valve adjustment. It’s a very nice to have feature but not
necessary. Upvote 0
