I still want a 22 streamline to go along with my 25 streamline... One checked out by Ernest, and not like the one I got from AOA that I had to return and loose a bunch of money on. Brian

Yes indeed Jimmy, that's very kind of you to give the invite. Methinks we are a breed apart also ... just what kind of breed, I'm not sure. All I know is that I very seldom shoot my powder burners anymore and have had thoughts about selling them and buying a Crown with the proceeds. Sometimes I feel like I am living proof that evolution can go in reverse, but when I get ready to take the plunge and visit Wrightsboro, I'll give you a heads up and we can chew the fat awhile. I'm not the best shot in the world, but I enjoy trying. Again, thanks for the invite ... John

I just got off the phone with Ernest Rowe and I am delighted. He talked me thru fixing my FX Streamline right over the phone.
Saved me a lot of aggravation and expense. This man is going to make FX what it is suppose to be one of the best air guns in the world.
THANKS ERNEST

Interestingly the man heading up the FX American Operation is Jon previously of Airgun Depot and well remembered from the First Airgun Golf Challenge.

This is pretty cool. Hoping that this will drastically cut the "wait time" down when ordering guns like the Crown. And I'm in NC with a 2 hr drive to Wilmington. Any need for repairs and I could just drop it off to Ernest and then go visit that cute girl I know who lives there. Win-Win!
Only one thing ....I hope since FX is now in NC that we won't have to pay sales tax even if ordering from an out-of-state retailer!?! That would be close to an extra $100 bucks on the same Crown.
i wanted to add a congrats to Ernest.....it's been great having him as our own private best kept secret but I'm sure he'll bring a lot to the table to FX. They are getting a really good deal. All the best!

Very good news and congratulations Ernest.
I hope there will be a US FX manufature or quality control team.

Awesome! Do hope this leads to some completion/price reduction, but I doubt it. Still, it will be a good thing.

Hope the new facility has barrel making ability and Ernest is involved in testing for new twist rates and pellet/barrel development.
I heard that there is a really nice shooting range as part of the facility. Anyone corroborate?

Good deal!
After watching Ernest vids it seems like a lot of fixing is needed on these rifles and having a service center state side with "official" warranty capability will only benefit the customer base.
Best to all in this endeavor. By the way, who is going to do all the mods on other guns now that Ernest is direct with FX? Will that be a conflict?
Regards,
DT

When all settled in, business as usual in repair / mods and tuning other none FX AG.
now I can fully test accuracy with in house range next to my work bench. Have access to many barrels to insure accuracy is in hand.

Ernest will this new smooth twist liner barrel system be available as an add on to existing Wildcats? By the way, thanks again very much for getting my Colibri back to me before you got so busy this past weekend!

Congratulations to Ernest.
It will be interesting to see how this goes and what 2018 brings.

Good to deal Ernest! Glad you are able to do what you like doing best and also get involved with a great airgun maker. Win/win for all!. Especially if your warranty/repair work goes back into improving the product.
Best of luck and Merry Christmas.
