Me right now:
But seriously - what a knockout! Time to make room in my stable for a 500mm .25 cal!

INTRODUCING THE FX DRS TACTICAL
- Thread starter FX Airguns
- Start date
The marketing and design team over in Sweden are brilliant. I bet they sell a ton of these. The AR style isn’t really my thing, but I still love this concept. That is a cool looking rifle with good performance and a decent price tag. I like it. Hopefully they can bring it to market without long delays.

Starting to feel like an S510. Same gun. Different dress. It will sell and it is a Lot cheaper than buying an aftermarket chassis.

Even though this gun isn’t my style I must complement FX for their creative innovation. As always FX is trendsetting and their guns are becomming more and more air efficient. FX are pushing the standards to new levels. This benefit us all.
36 ft/ibs in .177cal with 50cm barrel is amazing. No need for a Kentucky long stick anymore to get this power. Maybe their standard DRS with a classic wood stock can do this?

Specs show they all have the same tactical plenum?? Why does the 700 get fewest shots in .25 cal ?

Noone said it was anything but what it is and we are ALL allowed to express opinions or basic impressions. I know you think this is an elitist forum site but ITS NOT.
Don't listen to this Trucker dude. Obvious pessimist. Like what YOU like. Don't be put down by the self proclaimed know it alls. Sometimes they don't know when to stop putting everything and everyone around them down.
Beautiful gun.

Unsure here, in .177 do it have the NEW heavy liner, or the old one i would not really be interested in as i have that.

Good question. I would guess the 700 might come with heavy liner ? I think the regular drs does right ?

Sorry maybe I was being a little harsh!
But at the end of the day this is all about profit over common sense! To each their own it's supposed to be the American way. Lol

The spec sheet specifically says this rifle is geared towards pellets with the slightly smaller plenum and changes to air flow and such from a standard DRS.

Yeah the DRS of old do come with the heavy liner, at least in the 700 mm model, but i would want the new .177 - 1:16 barrel not 1:18 i already have.
Well i am generally slug shooter, which make sense if you are tied to .177, but i still think this have enough plenum for that job, .22 and .25 not so sure i have no experience with these calibers.

So they got time to make this, but not fix issues with their flagship Impacts? Shows how much they care.

Unfortunately it can’t be converted as we needed to make some extra mounting holes to make the rail fit and be one ridged platform.

Hey , we do care as we have been continuously working the last months on the issues some people experience.

or deliver the CF air tube or come out with a mid-sized plentum for the classic many have asked for. I think this will be a real winner for FX. I have never owned an AR. I never felt a need to own one as I couldn’t use it here in PA for hunting. I believe the best self defense gun for the home is a shotgun. So I have a tactical shotgun. I have been wanting to get a .177 pellet rifle that I could put open sights on to practice offhand shooting in the yard. Just want to keep my shooting skills up for when I shoot my PB competitions which are open sights off hand at 50 to 70 yards. This may fill the bill Although a whole different look. I shoot the old classic falling blocks and break action rifles. But regardless it’s still trigger pull and sight control that matters. Got to sell something first though.

Why did they shape the plenum to look exactly like a .223 bullet magazine carrier ? Probable answer : Because it will sell more guns .
