OK who will build the first high capacity magazine for the FX semi auto rifles??

[aack73]

yea i've been debating my next ag. semi fx?, hw100 or some other nice pcp? i'm thinking that semi would really be a hoot! i think i will stick with my original plan and buy a semi.

The Monsoon is the quieter of the two rifles.  Mine is some of the last imported with the LW barrels I think the selection being imported is all smooth twist barrels.  I am not sure if they are a good idea or not.  I am undecided and will stick to traditional barrels for awhile still

I will record a string on Sunday if wife is out of house the FX is still sorta a sensitive buy with her so I try not to flaunt it when she is around 

Good choice these do have the fun factor

here ya go Monsoon 200 bar fill 36 shots.....a 4th mag will cycle but the FPS falls from 876 to 829 on last 12 shots

[aack73]

thats a pretty flat shot string. very impressive. you say yours has the lw barrel. it's rifled all the way through? i thought they were only rifled at the end.? the fx web site lists them all as having an lw barrel?

[TOM aka critter99]

Mine was made before the smooth twists......Their FX site is way behind....they are supposed to still offer LW as an option but the standard import for AOA is smooth twist I think......down side is mags are about 100 bucks shipped one is not enough

Guess you could call AOA and ask them if they still have any non smooth twists or could order in next shipment

How long did it take you to shoot the 36 shots?....

There have been some pretty awesome prototypes made but none have been made public so today the semi lineup is just two guns, out of three or five intended.

I have shot three of them, the Microbust, the Monsoon and the Revo..

whats your take on the revo? i'm thinking of buying one.

[JohnnySweden]

I like the Revo, its the most solid semi but its tactical looks don't apply to everybody. If you don't mind the looks, this is the right choice. If you cant stand its appearance, then the Monsoon is your only option left.

I prefare the 177 Revo set to a lower setting since this will conserve air and in the small calibre the Revo will feature a 16 shot mag.

It would be really interesting to hear if there's any accuracy or fps difference with the barrel that has rifling just at the end. In theory it should give more fps.

get a 4500 PSI SCBA tank because that only took like a minute changing the mags ate some of time up *_*

[rsterne]

get a 4500 PSI SCBA tank

Sorry, I don't understand.... did you have the gun tethered to a tank?.... 

only took like a minute

Very KEWL !!!.... Guess I was wrong about the potential velocity drop during rapid fire.... must not cool enough to be an issue....

Bob

[TOM aka critter99]

I was not tethered....What I meant was 36 shots and a fill goes quick so filling from a tank is needed...imagine pumping so long and poof all the charge is gone so quick.

I do tether my 25 Marauder at times if my tank is down to 3000 PSI and I am at a bench or retuning it
