fx impact mk2 or mk3
im sure this question has been asked a thousand times, im looking at a used impact mk2 on utah airguns site, question is the rifle used is $1799 should i spend the extra $300 and just get a new mk3 for $2100? money isnt a option here just wondering if im going to notice a major difference...
www.airgunnation.com Fx impact m3 or m4? If you're going to buy an impact?
M4 over the m3 not much of an upgrade but the upgrades are nice to have. I'm sure m3 owners wouldn't sell it to upgrade to the m4. So this question is for non impact owners. If you don't have an impact and want one. Which one to buy? The m3 or m4? I remember when the m3 came out every fx fan...

Saw this on youtube. Fx impact m5 will get rid of the spring/hammer and go electronically hammerless like daystate. Rumors only so don't quote me. XD

Check out the dates.
They're simply examples of people having the same thoughts as you....wait for the next one or buy the current one. (There will always be a next one. )

I really messed up with my timings. Ive not owned an air gun in the last 20 years, I just kinda thought they were like toys basically, try not to shoot yourself in the eye and you'll be fine. I didn't understand how far they'd come until a chance encounter with a mate with a break barrel Gamo, then that led down the YouTube rabbit hole and I ordered a couple of m3's.
But unfortunately after several months YouTube research and jumping in at the deep end and buying two m3's and two thermal scopes, the m4 was announced lol
I decided to cut my losses, sell the m3's to two of my hunting buddies and just get a couple of m4's. **** it I know it wasn't particularly worth it, but I just want it. and putting 2 more high end guns in our hunting group is superb too.
Life is short, buy what you can afford / what you want right now. There's no point in waiting for something slightly better.

Received my new M4 last week, have never owned or handled any FX guns prior, so far i'm loving mine, first time owning FX and it has been a pleasure to play with and shoot. Buttery smooth side level reload action, super accurate, zero POI shift, no reg creep or air leak, so easy to tune to cover a wide range of pallets and slugs. it's a huge experience upgrade coming from Avenge X, Notos, and break barrel.
I ain't waiting for no M5 or M6, i wanted it NOW so i get to have fun NOW, not later.

I'm waiting for the next Apple phone (that has an AIRGUN, night vision, range finder & ballistic calculator built in!)

Is the m4 better than the m3? I think the undeniable answer to that is absolutely yes it is. Sure it might not quite have as new many features as some would have hoped for, but its better.
For me it was worth flipping the m3's and getting m4's. If the m5's are slightly better when they come out I'll do the exact same thing again. We use our guns pretty much daily to go out hunting. I'll happily buy an m4 for 2.2k euros, use it for 100's of hours out having brilliant fun then sell it for 1500e to put towards a very slightly better m5.
