30 cal FX Bullpup at AOA on Friday?
Beat the Russian boys to the punch maybe? There just might be a flood of quality multi-shot bullpups real soon (sorry leaving Evanix out of the quality choices) and several in .30 cal.

The guns won’t arrive to AOA until this Friday. Since last week, haven’t heard of any other updates.
Anyone hear anything lately
And then some.

Nice… so if i don’t like mine i should be able to recoup all my $$’s on resale.
Guns won’t be in until next week. Then the factory closes for a month lol..

Did he call last week or this week?
Well ? …It’s almost Saturday 🙄 🙄
Are you kidding – those AOA guys are all at the local pub enjoying that extra cash. The differential they put on those “not yet priced” guns paid for quite a hoe down. :3: :7: :6:
How long does it take for information typed in Arizona to reach the outside world?
I’ll bet those fellows who put down a non refundable deposit of $500 didn’t realize such deposits are generally 10% of the retail price, less tax, special handling, and pickup fees!
It could be the poor guy is at the local emergency room getting oxygen, and being treated for shock!
Time will tell. Can’t wait for dawn to come in Arizona.
RC – You just described the exact requirements for an air gun and backyard shooting at my house. Small, compact, accurate, quiet, and powerful but limited range like a flu flu arrow. I shoot the casts in my modded condor but they are too close to a .22 LR and travel way too far with too much down-range energy and are just not practical most of the time around the house. I have quite an area to shoot in but still have neighbors. I wish the pellets would just fall out of the sky at about 150 yards. All of that comes at additional expense to meet those requirements but it’s only money. Being an air gun collector. a great bullpup .30 or .35 is somewhat a novelty item. I wouldn’t expect to shoot it much as it is all most a range gun in most neighborhoods or for the open range which is true of most air guns when you start getting much above 50 FPE or so. I’ll use my 22-250, 243, or new 17 WSM for the varmints at long range in the country. 😉
It’s 4:20 pm here in Arkansas and it’s what… only 2:00 am in Arizona?

Why would you want one, unless your dead set against casting?
For the price of a couple thousand of those ballistcally inefficient 30’s, which have the trajectory of a slow brick, you can buy a furnace, a 257420 mold and a sizer. Then you have far better trajectory, much more FPE and your ammo is less that 3 cents per round. Not to mention far superior accuracy at long range.
Neither concept is back yard friendly IMHO.
So with a bullpup in 30, your taking not only a short legged woman to the dance, your taking one that can’t walk over 300 feet and costs an arm and a leg to feed. 😛
Take Oldgoat for instance, the poor man has this love disastrous attraction for short legged women, but he does at the same time have the good sense to try and put a 257 barrel on it to shoot cast bullets. 💡

Agree with Charlie, low power .30 cal don’t make much sense, rather shoot a Nice Meplat bullet of a .25 than a Diabolo of a .30
I am more curious of the .25’s performance.
Well not to burst your guy’s bubble, but I don’t get the 30 caliber diablo shooters worth either. ❓

I seriously don’t have a life. It is 2pm Eastern time and I’ve been refreshing the TAG and Yellow page since 7 am hoping someone would post some info on FX Bobcat. Don’t people camp out of AOA like they do for sneakers or video games?

Those Bob´s are so ugly they lost their will to live during the trip over the Atlantic. FX had to send another bunch – thus the delay !
