FX DRS PRO available for Pre Order

Ohhkay I'm back in lol.
They are comparing the power to a 22lr. It's not even close, even in .25 cal. Why do they do that to themselves? It's 100ft lbs short of a .22lr.
Then they go on to reference the ever rising cost of firearms and ammo. Match grade pellets are just as expensive as .22 ammo and there are TONS of super accurate .22lrs under $1000. They really need to check themselves on the comparison. There's nothing spectacular here, they are riding the FX name. This rifle could easily be priced at $1500 or less.

Unfortunately, its true!
Especially if you compare .30 pellets, to inexpensive .22 rimfires.

FX said the Pro version wont be available until mid-summer as I recall.
They said they would release the synthetic version first, which they already have.
Then the Minelli walnut stock version is suppose to be next, and should be very soon.
And finally the Pro version, by mid-summer.
There is however, another company that already offers a aftermarket DRS chassis.
Its suppose to be similar, yet different than the MDT Pro version, and at a lower price point.

Just because some of us can afford to purchase expensive items, doesn't mean we have less sense. There are always people who have less, or more, than others.
Sounds like jealousy to me!
Have fun.

I agree.
The DRS Classic is priced at $999.
Its a conventional looking airgun, that is very powerful, very lightweight and very short.
Try finding a similar or superior quality airgun, that is conventional looking, less than 40" and has an equal amount of power, for less money.
There is no other conventional looking airgun that I am aware of, that compares to the DRS, for less money!
Nothing even comes close!

I too have been watching this new coming FX platform. I'm waiting to see how it shakes out with the forum members here.
If there is positive feedback from actual purchases here, I'll be ordering the 500mm walnut stocked version in .22
Love the looks of the single air tube/barrel configuration, resembling a bull-barrel PB.
Very attractive to my eye.
Have fun!

I have been trolling this site for about 3 years. Lots of great guns but none appealed to me. The DRS is the first gun that has come along and checked ALL of MY boxes. With all the gear I have purchased in the past week I am over $2000. A lot of money for sure but it is still cheaper than having kids.
I bought the .25 in 500mm. The .25 comes with the large plenum. It is a bad@ss little rifle.

I would say Remington Vought, but it appears to be sub 12lb only, although I'm sure it could be more

m24 = $1700 and 44"
m30 = made in china and 45"
FX DRS = $999, Made in Sweden and less than 40"

When Daytona Airguns gets the walnut versions in stock, please let us know!
How fast is your big plenum 500mm DRS pushing the 25 grain JSB'S ?

I don’t have a chronograph yet. I can’t answer your question. The big plenum is pretty nice. It is a great place to hold for off hand shooting. Put your hand at the bottom of the plenum and your elbow against your chest, it is a very comfortable hold. Central Florida Airguns has a .25 600mm in stock. It is very nice. The 600 mm looks good on the gun. I was at his shop yesterday-ish and he is looking to get the wood stock DRS in. Give them a call. They can get whatever you want and their prices are the same as Utah. Be warned if you go there it will take all your discipline to not walk out with a King. Those stocks are simply amazing.
