FX Impact - Pre Order and Delivery Related Questions

"ashes5"I just got a call to see if I wanted the 30 cal in black. I ordered the silver so I am going to wait. That much money I figure I would wait to get the color I wanted. At least they are here.
WooHoo! Here we go! I can't wait for all of you to share your experiences with all of us! 
Good luck getting phone calls everybody!

"Ronin001"Question?
Barrel Kit included: Barrel, port and one (1) magazine
Barrel Kit for $440 includes Barrel, Shroud and Bolt Probe. The magazine is another $89.95. Maybe I will get the .30 Caliber later too.
That shroud Jack.K is referring to is the built in telescopic shroud.

$529.95 ain't bad when you consider that, in a way, you'll be getting a whole other premium rifle that might otherwise cost. 1899.

I wanted to get all 3 calibers (.22 .25 and .30) but the hard case only holds 2 barrels. No info on the "Extreme" version from AOA yet. 

updated 
called AoA back and added the .30 cal barrel and magazine too. 😊

To bad the "kit" doesn't include the proper magazine with it. It's a pita to load without a magazine.
 
I GOT MY IMPACT CALL THIS AFTERNOON AND POSTED but it didn't seem to make it to the sight here. I got a silver and about 2+ weeks I should have it in hand, AoA is hustling to get all they have assembled leak tested, fired and mechanically checked and shipped. While the AoA employee was talking to me I was over hearing a conversation in the back ground. Was not real clear and I think I was only hearing half of the conversation. AND I wasn't hearing it all that clearly. NOW this is HEAR SAY and is NOT A FACT, IT was not spoken to me and is more of an impression of what I think heard. Seems all the black Impacts in this shipment are allocated and best I could figure from what I heard 4 + weeks till the next shipment arrives. Say January. I've no idea how many silvers are left to be allocated.
 
"fe7565"Saw the first FX Impact (.22/.25) for sale already, albeit marked up: http://www.airguns.net/classifieds/show_ad.php?adNum=110109&adSort=&StartingAd=0&NumberOfPages=6


$2950 price seems high initially but it does include both a .22 and .25 barrel, FX scope, Hawke rings, pellet pouch, and 2 tins of pellets.
Breakdown:
$1899 for the Impact
$150 for tax (8%)
$299 for FX 3-12x44 IR/AO Scope
$529 for additional barrel with shroud, probe, and magazine
$30 for 2 tins of pellets
$20 Hawke scope rings
My estimated value of the deal is $2927
So it looks like the seller might be asking close to what he might have paid into it. If it was silver, came with a .22 and .30 barrel and was $200 less, then I would pull the trigger myself rather than waiting until after January for my reserve : )
