I found a new stock for the FX Panthera Dynamic. What do you think about it?

Wow! What a sweet idea. I like it. What is the length of pull range? It looks to be a long butt stock but it’s hard to tell for sure in the photos. Being able to use a 480cc bottle in that position would be awesome. Thanks,
Kenny

I wrote to them. I got a reply - in the basic setting the overall stock length is 345mm. The original stock on the FX Panther is 315mm in base setting. The FX Dynamic is 325mm in base setting. Because of the versatility of using multiple carbon cylinders and the ability to de-pressurize, the overall length was extended slightly.

If I’m doing the currency conversion correctly then that is one expensive butt stock.

Yes the stock is more expensive not really expensive. For me personally it brings more positives i.e. even though it is a more expensive stock I will soon be a proud owner.

So the price includes everything in the photo? Doesn't it have to be bought in stages like everywhere else and the price is higher in the end?

Does it go on other models from FX or other manufacturers?

Looks interesting. But $718 for an additional 180cc of air...? Pass.

You're partly right. But there's more to it than just another 180 cc of air. I see it as an extension
1. 180cc of air
2. Bag rider
3. The possibility of easy installation of a monopod
4. Bottle protection
5. Preservation of all stock adjustability
6. Potential for further expansion.

When I consider what other stock manufacturers bring to the table, it's always
1. The elimination of the entire bottle in the rear
2. The need to mount the bottle in the front of the gun
3. The original Arca Swiss rail is also lost when I move it to the front.
4. Negative weight transfer to the front of the gun for hunters.

So in conclusion, I think that using this stock even though it is more expensive in a way, it might just give the hunter more shots in more power and more weight to the body and thus better stability when shooting.
So too for people who maybe shoot PRS competitions where it will also give them more shots and overall stability.
And that's certainly not the whole list of possibilities.

PS: I have already ordered it for the reasons I see in it. I'm a long range shooter and I use a similar setup as they have in the photo because it's important for me to have as much air as possible right on the airgun so I don't have to carry a big air bottle with me.

It is an interesting idea for sure! Can honestly say that I haven't seen anything like that before.

But I agree with centercut...... over $700 and then shipping for an additional 180cc of air, and a milled block of aluminum. Now all of that makes things expensive for sure, it seems like a little much.

 

[darknes]

Yes, I agree. It's more expensive. But personally, I'm happy to pay extra for something that's precision made.

But I have a question for you - how much would you be willing to pay for the stock yourself?

Good points. Here’s what I did to my Panthera 600mm .25 slugger recently. ST ARCA rail was $165.
