Page 4 of 8 - FX Airguns Impact M4 Reviews

Been an avid shooter of firearms and airguns for over 50 years. This is by far my favorite gun I've ever owned. Incredibly accurate right out of the box.

Manufacturer should make foster fitting more accessible or supply an extended adapter.

The foster fitting is recessed which is a really nice feature for protecting it. Just make sure you have an extended fitting on your fill hose. It is extremely difficult to remove the supplied fitting especially if you have gloves on or have limited dexterity like most of us old duffers. Luckily for me, the customer service rep at Pyramid Air gave me a heads up when I ordered it.

THE TRIGGER. The fit and finish, construction practices and the design. The accuracy is second to none, and since I hunt in my backyard, I love that it is mouse fart quiet. Life is grand. I have been shooting, hunting and competing since I was six years old and I am not Seventy-Seven. This is the finest, most accurate rifle I have ever owned. In fairness, it is also the most expensive rifle I have ever owned. I will NEVER part with this beauty. You will never pull a better trigger.

A dear friend and shooting partner asked me this question last week, and my reply was that it was more rifle than I could even imagine. However as I sometimes wax facetious, I would love to have the magazine as the Red Ryder BB gun that I still have. You know, use a funnel and pour in several hundred pellets (BB)s and shoot it all day. Bearing in mind, that with my present 38 shot FX Mag, it is almost as good as the Red Ryder.

A long female foster fitting comes with the gun. You WILL need a threaded to male foster to connect this long adapter to your air supply.

Everything, what a work of art plus the precision and Quality of the gun is great well thought out and agronomical in every way plus the accuracy, what a joy to shoot thanks FX.

Nothing

Dont let the price scare you you wont regret it trust me,happy shooting.

Amazing rifle very smooth solid build its a little pricey but you get what you pay for. 30 cal accuracy is phenomenal Just got rifle other day so have only been able to test at 70 yards in my back yard but I have no doubts this gun will shoot 1 inch groups at 100 150 yards plenty of knockdown power as well

Nothing I can think of at this time

Well worth the wait, tight tolerances, accurate, easy of moding and accessories..

Nothing!

Great pcp as always !

Waiting for someone to contact me with my questions.

Its everything they say it is. If you like to tinker, it's the airgun for you.

I knew going into it that I was still going to buy more expensive bits to add-on, change, upgrade, but it still hurts the wallet...oh, well, just don't look at your totals... Also, for taller, longer-limbed shooters (I'm 6ft4in), the stock pull length was a little short for my comfort on the bench, so an adjustable length buttpad is a great first purchase. I designed and 3D printed my own, adding about 3inches.

The harmonic tuner should be one of your next upgrades, it does make a difference, and gives you more trigger time finding the sweet spot. Also, the stock moderator does almost as good a job of cutting the sound as a Donny FL Ronin or Fat Boy 2.0. I bought them both and ran a dB meter (+/- 3 dB via a phone app), so very little difference to the ear. If I were to do it again, I'd put the money elsewhere. Also, the aftermarket moderators are heavier and you will get barrel droop and a POI shift, that's where the tuner really helps (but also adds to further barrel droop). CF liner sleeve was my second best upgrade, particularly for the longer 700mm barrel. Finally, adjustable rings are a must if you plan to shoot far...especially considering barrel droop.

Smooth like a baby's bottom. Just took it out of the box threw a brand new Arken scope on it and was hitting a 2" target from 60-65yards standing without one adjustment. Looking forward to making it into my slug-only gun. I own a bunch of guns so my expectations were high and I'll report back once I get it dialed in the way I like'em. FX needs to up their game with availability.

Have barrel options and not the ones that they have in stock without preordering them. So if I wanted a .25cal 700mm slug barrel make that an option. Not a 350.00 add-on. Gladly pay a little more for it. That way I don't have a barrel I'd rarely if ever use. I already have a 30cal but I wanted this gun and didn't want to preorder and wait months. So now another 350 to get it into slugs.

Don't buy this as your first PCP, period. Start with a lower-end FX. Make sure when you add on custom parts they actually improve things. Do not tune the gun until you know the steps or you will be in trouble.

I purchased the FX M3 in .25 caliber about 60 days ago. After a couple of tins shot I can say this is easily the most accurate rifle in my collection, period. This includes a 1/2 MOA .270 titanium/carbon fiber barreled powder burner and several other sub MOA powder and air rifles. It will consistently stack pellets in one hole at 50yds. The M3 is light, compact, and easy to tune to any velocity desired. I also installed the carbon fiber barrel liner and this tightened groups measurably. So far so good, quality seems excellent, everything fits and functions like it should, holds air, is very quiet. I may have found the perfect mini-sniper for pest control. The price is high but you get what you pay for.

My first PCP and it would appear I chose a good one. This rifle is AWESOME! At 25 yards I was able to get two 10 shot groups the size of a quarter. With practically ZERO recoil, this rifle is so easy to shoot.

Although I didn't have any problems with it, I'm not a big fan of how the magazine pops in and out. I'm sure I will get used to it over time, but it's not exactly intuitive.

The shot is a little louder than I thought it would be. I shoot in my back yard which is in an urban environment. I don't think the neighbors will complain, but I thought it would be a little quieter.
