Will the FX Impact be available in .177 ???
I'm confused because Ted didn't mention anything about a .177 Barrel in his review, but AOA has the 177 barrel as an option ?

Just from the Internet ( mainly airgun gear show) the UK ( sub 12fpe) version is .177 and 700 ( ?? darn) shots on the reg. .

What about in the USA ???

 

[sgtskinny]

Yes it can be purchased in .177 in the USA. The impact can be purchased with any one of 4 calibers, .177, .22, .25, .30, naturally depending on availability. Additional caliber kits can be had for around $575 IIRC; barrel, pellet probe, and magazine.

Ok, thank you. 
I just still think it's strange why Ted (Tedsholdover) didn't mention a .177 barrel option.
if it's true, you must be able to get hundreds of shots !!!

My understanding from FX is that they will be making the .177 barrels this month and they are not available yet.

I am interested in a .177 Impact too.

Will be interesting to see how they work out the initial bugs in future production runs.

Bumping this thread, been asking some dealers in both Norway and Sweden and noone is able to get their hands on it in .177 yet.

As far as I understand the issue is that the "factory" is moving to new loactions and the US&A is the main market and that the higer calibers a preferd there, hence down prioritized the all mighty dirt cheap and fun 4,5mm. But i don't mind waiting...

AOA said they were taking orders for .177 when I called two months ago. I'm waiting for them to offer the rifle with a screw on moderator vs. the current sliding one. And I certainly like to hear if a .177 and .25 combo works well together on the rifle without a bunch of adjusting.
