FX FX DRS Classic V2 - Wish List

Now that the FX DRS Classic rifle(s) have been out for a year and folks have had a chance to evaluate them, what would you like to see changed in a V2 version?

1- Front Sling Swivel Stud

2- Do away with the three current barrels length options and offer the rifle in the best compromise length of 550mm (Classis Version).

3- Slightly larger plenum/mag

4- Offer a suppressor that matches the O.D. and finish of the stock air tube/barrel.

Please, agree, disagree and, or add your own thoughts about changes for a V2 DRS Classic rifle.
 
No way would I do away with the other barrel lengths.

1). Picatiny rail standard because it’s 2025

2). Regulator gauge standard because there is an externally adjustable regulator 🤦‍♂️. No offense FX but there couldn’t be a bigger duh out there in the industry.
Other than those two things off the top of my head I think it’s pretty awesome.
 
I added the Spartan bipod adapter. It is real easy to put a screw in the synthetic stock. For a gun named The dynamic rifle SYSTEM. I would like to see More options not less. So far I am not seeing much of a System. I am starting to think the BlackWolf is everything a DRS is supposed to be.
Hold on, you are saying the DRS is supposed to cost $2k?
 
No! I misspoke in my excitement. What I should have said was... the Blackwolf is what I thought the DRS was going to be. When you put 'system' in a gun's name, it should have more options than a sight rail and a plenum.
Maybe I expect too much but having to order parts from 2 different places in EUROPE just to change calibers is very frustrating to me. Utah (our only importer) hasn't added anything related to the DRS to their website in 6 months. They carry next to nothing. I love the gun but the company (FX and Utah)really p!sses me off at times. End of rant.

1. I agree about the "swivel stud" but only as a threaded socket that will allow attachments without a protrusion which my not be desired.

2. Are you advocating for different liners at only the same (550 mm) barrel length?

3. Larger plenum- is one plenum volume ideal for all uses?

4. Unfortunately, suppressors are illegal in Canada, because politicians watched the wrong Hollywood movies.

5. Plenum pressure gauge as standard, integrated into the plenum, and allowing the stock to be removed with plenum and gauge in place. Kind of a "Duh!".

Great conversation. Hopefully FX will listen.
 
I agree with all of the above. But it is important to hold the price point on this great rifle And it is really great just as it is. But another version I would like to see is one with an adjustable hammer spring like the last Wildcat. Or an adjustable power port like the streamline. I know most people wouldn’t use it but I like how I can quickly change from heavy to light ammo or change to low power for those times when high power is too much power, with just a turn of a dial On my streamline and Wildcat. That is why I’m not getting rid of either of those rifles. First FX needs to follow up with their promised accessories such as the carbon fiber barrel shroud and they need to change their outdated magazines which are hard to load compared to some of the aftermarket ones which I am using now. They bought out Rat Sniper for the Hybrid slugs they can buy out one of the magazine guys too And have a much better magazine. If they don’t come out with another plentum somewhere in the mid 40 to 50cc volume they aren’t listening to their customers. It’s not that it is needed but it is wanted.
 
You missed the key word in the title of this thread..., 'Classic'. Personally, I have no interest in any of the other versions of the DRS platform, only the Classic. I would like to hear what others would like to see changed by FX on the classic models going forward.
I do love my DRS .22 Cal 600 mm with super powerful plenum...... But.....

I'm really would like it to have a bigger air capacity to have better shot count.
