I know FX airguns are expensive but this is like comparing a Corolla with a lexus 😉

800 fpe give me a call …. 😉

I’m lost here, 800fpe? Pls calm me when your Hatsan makes that kinda punch! 😕
I’m not a big fun of AOA but unfortunately they are the only official dealer for FX and they pretty much charge what ever they want, no other option if you want an fx, but not bc of this I’m gonna settle for something with less quality. I applaud FX for thinking out the box with the impact and I know they are fixing the problems on the next production. Will see.

HA ! HA ! sorry man … I was just showing/messing with you on a comparative cost vs FPE amount …. kinda half joking with a valid point …… and hey … I have to say this – if you want to collect all of these models of air guns have at it … and I will raise my hand = guilty of spending and collecting quite a few air guns … more than the wife will ever know :rofl:

I just think the cost is getting way to high …and again – look at one of the gun’s I have it has almost doubled in just a few short years $1200 base model xp ranger to around $2000 sold as bushbuck on AOA …. I know you can see this pattern now …. the AOA/FX pattern $$$$

I have to say though when I ordered my ranger it was $1200 with out the stock …because I had a 36inch custom barrel made for it …. I then put a Richards micro fit stock custom cnc-ed to my specs … and then I myself cut the inlet for the air tube and trigger + trigger guard then sanded to final shape and finish that I wanted and for finish coating I used west systems clear epoxy for final finish…. I race jet ski’s and we use west systems with carbon or regular glass for a strong salt water proof finish …. it is little spendy compared to other more conventional gun finishes … but it makes your stock super hard salt water proof …bullet proof hard finish….and looks killer ! …

when you’re lexus shoots 800 fpe give me a call …. 😉

I just couldn’t resist …. now really if you keep paying the over the top prices … they will just keep bumping them up !

” hey look the fish are biting on the bare hook now ” :rofl: :fishing:

I had someone at another forum send me the whole-sale pricing… on the FX impact …. you could buy that badger + scope with the mark up ! 😯

and guy’s it’s not just FX that is playing this game on us …. xp airguns now is selling the ranger 45 on AOA as the bushbuck 45 and guess what …. the gun used to sell for $1200 from xp now it is selling for around $ 2000 from AOA …. and I have told everyone not to buy it since I help promote it … and now they are pulling this insane price increase on us …. I say let those guns collect dust in their inventory tell they are forced to lower the price …

it’s simple don’t take the bait ! ,,,, it might be a time to buy another powder burner instead … since the prices have come down on those …and now the ammo is back in stock … you can buy a bull barrel custom built 22 cal all after market that will shoot the eyes’ out of a humming bird at 50 yards for $500 at the local gun shows .. 😆

I would not compare FX with Hatsan but i get your point.

just do not buy them …… they will have to lower the price …. I would love to have had the impact …. sorry I will not pay $1899 { USA} for and air gun ! small caliber ! ..plus the mags are double the cost or more of the cheaper guns that work great ….to me it’s like and insult to my intelligence … and I am a guy that can afford to buy just about any thing I want ..

and I have a xp air guns ranger 45 … that I have $1600 + into it ….but that gun shoots 800fpe with a 416 g bullet ! :mrgreen: I just bought a hatsan gladius for $836 shipped to my door …. waiting for it to get here … and yes I know they are a bit more heavy …

the last hatsan I bought 2 years ago for $350 😆 on a black Friday sale shipped to my house ….att44w long .25 that shoots 920fps 25 kings in a jagged hole the size of a dime … from center to center it’s less than half the size of a dime ….at 50 yards …. if I don’t like the gladius I have 30 day’s to return it for full refund so there is very little risk buying that one from pyramyd air …. and if I do like it … it’s a WIN ! WIN ! .. I will have saved $1074 over the FX Impact …..
that is enough saved to then buy a .40 cal badger + the scope 6x24x50 ..that can shoot 400fpe out of the box … and even more if you tune for it 😉 .

And there was everyone here thinking FX released an affordable pup in the Wildcat only to hike up the price later. I have a Wildcat but at £1050 i would have never bought one as there are better about at that price.

Holy crap! In Sweden the wildcat costs £800 or 9800 SEK

The Impact however also went up in price to £1185 or 14500 SEK
