FX Impact ATN for Pitch Black Pest Control
Wow I thought our laws in Canada were dumb.
Not being able to have body armor is nuts! It's a purely defensive tool. They clearly want you to be vulnerable
All of this is crazy to me but it's really crazy that the police can just come to your home and demand to inspect your private property. We in the US need to be careful to not become subjects of the state...
You Aussies need access to the Mexican border. For $5800 USD (probably $8000 AUD) you can illegally buy an illegally smuggled in full auto M4 copy made by Norinco in China. You are breaking lots of laws, but the guns and the illegal dealers are not that hard to find close to the Mexican border. Your waiting period is how fast can you count out 80 $100 bills, and that's all your paperwork too.
I’m a gun owner in the US. For comparison, in 2023 we averaged 327 shootings per day with 118 of those being fatal, and right around 340 mass shooting. Most here define a mass shooting as four or more people being shot by the same shooter.
Like 99% of people commenting on Port Arthur, you don't mention that Barry Unsworth, then NSW Premier, said in 1988, that there will never be uniform gun control in Australia, until there is a massacre in Tasmania, because Tasmania had their own state laws and the Feds didn't like not having total control. Apart from the fact that the gun Bryant had supposedly used, had been handed in to the Victorian Police, 18 months earlier. How did it get to Bryant's hands from the Victorian Police? Ask those questions if you've got the balls to dig deep enough. And a lot bloody more than these need answering.
Bryant didn’t do it😊
They are about to get worse
criminals seem to find weapons readily available…..
lol I had the same exact thing happen to me and broke my front tooth
Most states already had reasonable gun laws in place before 1996 except QLD and Tassy because they were the safest states in Australia. Gun laws are made by the states but in line with media hysteria and blackmail all states agreed to implement a Federal standard in 1996 which some states have made more extreme overtime. Most of our population lives in cities on the coast so most of our politicians are city based coastal people who don't hunt or shoot. Our NSW police minister did not even know what a semi auto centre fire was nor did most poltiicians. They are automatic guns with high velocity exploding bullets that expand to the size of a dinner plate that no one needs to own (that's the media version). Overnight two thirds of Australia's trained riflemen were eliminated by the Prime Minister. It's not the gun licensing laws that cause the problem it's the gun control laws that allow rediculous over regulation. The licensing part allows me to own possess and use my S&W 686 for shooting targets but the gun control part makes it illegal for me to use it as a side arm when hunting feral pigs. There is no sensible justification for that. It is legal for me to shoot paper but gun control makes it illegal to shoot an Orange. The 5 standards are. 1. Categories A,B,C,D,H,R. 2. Genuine Reason to support category. 3. 28 day waiting period for licence application 4. Safe Storage and police inspections. 5. Registration of all firearms. Those who owned class1 and 2 firearms but could not satisfy the new categories were paid to hand in LISTED guns for compensation and could use it to buy new guns to fit there new category. Buyback guns did not have to be functional and Slug guns, bolt actions and break shotguns were not compensated for but were counted in media figures as guns handed in under the buyback scheme.
Matt?
I was so disappointed I wanted em to be good soooo bad but in my gun they just don’t perform and it’s not even worth trying to tune for them because everything else I have does work but shoutout to FX it’s a great idea and they still get me raccoons from 25 feet but I should make a video of them grouping at 30 or o dear lord 50 yards😅 I had about a 10 inch group if you can even call it that the packaging is definitely top notch though
I forgot I am using a standard airacuda in .25 and for all the people that believe when people say a “budget” airgun won’t shoot slugs that’s misinformation my gun was $300 and my neighbor has a $1500 FX and the JTS is definitely on par accuracy wise he has a decent advantage muzzle energy wise making about 65-70 but I’m perfectly fine with the 45-48 mine makes out of the box honestly the only thing I’m jealous of is that shot count but I could do something about it so it’s no loss…. All the data out there is subjective and every gun is different but you definitely don’t need to be flying slugs at 950-1000 fps for them to work or any of that there really are no shortcuts if you want to know what will work for you in your gun you just have to feed it and see😂
I ordered a can just because for $6 I can’t lose 😂 they’ll work for a raccoon from 20 yards almost certainly even my .25 FX hybrid slugs can handle that even though they won’t do anything like group on a target at 30 yards😂….. best I can think of is the muzzle energy is the minimum to propel them but I have no idea honestly
thank you for this video!
FYI I recently bought a brand new mk2 crown that has the baffles inside the shroud. However it doesn’t have any provision for the air stripper. So the baffles play no part in silencing the gun. I guess this is now acceptable in Australia.
how is it we are thinking on the same wave length in doing this? Just received a TEMU special tripod and this idea came up...aww kindred spirits here? lmao😂..I'm 6,' 4" with access to a Howa .308 and your basic AR-15..Another double use item adventure!!
Hope you're ok mate, really miss your videos. I know you lost everything in a big flood so I hope you get some land to shoot on. I hope you still shoot. Plenty of rabbits in Australia.
@lancsvermincontrol I'm doing okay mate, you never know, i might find my way back onto a bigger property at some point. Interest rates are a little crazy here right now so it might he a while
Hi, I am in kind of the same position. The FX crown marked two fields better in my hands as compared to the FX Impact, but because I am interested in energy penetration at long distances, I am leaning towards the impact because of 25 caliber it has 90 FPE as compared to 60 FPE on the FX crown. Someone told me To purchase the crown 30 caliber which might be a good option, but I’m not sure how many shots you’ll get as compared to the impact. What’s your opinion?
They also changed the definition of mass shooting in legal world. Now 4 people have to die in the event for it to be classed as a mass shooting.
What's your opinion on polishing the FX barrels? My question is if you have to polish the barrels for better performance why doesn't the factory at FX do it for you or any other air gun manufacturer?
G’day mate it’s been a while. Are you still living west of Gympie or have you moved out of that flood zone. We moved after the flood to Tin Can Bay gone from shooting to fishing. Hope you are well.
Yep same same. Sold the property so I have nowhere to shoot/film now. Shifted over to fishing too, got a little boat. Up the great sandy Strait this weekend in search of good times!
Can you please make a video and just say hi to us!! We miss you buddy@@meatheadmarksman2013
What bugs me is that a lot of the gun laws that existed prior to 1996 seems like a distant memory to a lot of people from that time there was state legislation surrounding guns prior to 1996 that has literally just disappeared from public view, even people I know from that time who were heavily into hunting/guns can only recall bits and pieces of what it was like. The collective mind wipe is so real that The gun section at Kmart is what most old heads can come up with when talking about it.
Hi Meathead, Ive just purchased a new FX Crown MK2 and recently returned from a weekend shooting trip where we spent some time getting acquainted with each other. I was pretty impressed to say the the least. However, once I returned home from my trip I was giving it a clean and luckily noticed that the power wheel was very loose. So loose that another turn or two of the retaining screw and it would have fallen off!! Just wondering if this was a common problem with these guns? I am concerned that it will work its way loose again. Is there a way to overcome this problem? Should I take it back to my Gun shop? Cheers
Two gamers leave the shooting with the adults with 🎉😂. I have 5 Sako rifles and 3 Tikka and several other firearms you're just 2 messes get shooting a bad name,shame on you guys.🎉😮

very nice clip..i am glad that i see these goups .why? because i have m25 snowpeak .25cal with a huma reg in it set to 140 bar (gun + reg) 450 euro's. and i did the same like you with the fx gun.Man i wanted to smash my gun and save money ..Because i thought bad gun ..waist of money and tune time.Sure, allot is me 😀 but man when i see this clip i luv my m25 ..very nice honest clip..👍
Hey mate I've found your vids to be awsome im a pro shooter in tasmania do you think the fx crown mk2 could shoot these ok with slug power kit and the heavy liner im looking at replacing. 22 long rifle subsonic and not keen on the impact style like the crown synthetic as its more of a normal rifle.
What's your opinion? I decided to go with the 25 caliber air rifle 1100 FPS I think around 80 FPE. I'm going to most likely change the barrel to a barrel that is set up for Slugs. In terms accuracy and energy/penetrating power is there a not a happy medium in terms of caliber and slug choice? This is an accuracy lethality question. Have you concluded what your favorite caliber is overall in terms of accuracy and long distance penetrating/energy FPE at 100 yd to 200 yd plus? If for example you are shooting long distances say 200 yards plus at 3/4 inches of pine wood which is considered the standard, perhaps a 25 caliber slug will be more accurate and consistent at these distances as compared to a 30 and 35 caliber slug because of the higher weight of the larger slugs causung a higher drop off angle and more of a loss of enegy as compared to a 25 caliber slug?
@tnsharpshooter8517 0 seconds ago I have some of those slugs. My avenger X 22 cal don’t seem to like. My Avenge X loves Zan 20 grainers. Not shot at 100 yards or 100 meters. Have shot at 50 and 60 yards. 60 yards light wind. Under dime sized groups. No joke. Scary actually. May try at longer distance just to see what they do. I don’t even know how fast I have them running. They are faster than 900 fps. I don’t just know how much faster. I haven’t give up on the nsa though. Might get me another 22 cal barrel. They may shoot in it. I do like the cost of nsa over the Zans though.
🇦🇺😎👍Double nice 🏁

Hi, I purchased the kerven airboss k1 25 cal cal. There is a company in South Africa that makes a barrel for my gun that's compatible with pellets and slugs. From what I understand een if you find a slug that works with your standard barrel, you're still going to get better results with a barrel that is specifically made for slugs or a combination of slugs and pellets. Do you agree? I'm thinking about purchasing the barrel
The bits you need to worry about are the exact calibre of the barrel, that is for .22 they're usually .217 or .218, some slugs perform marginally in tighter (.217) or looser (.218) barrels depending on the slug itself and the twist rate of the barrel will be quite a bit faster then a pellet barrel. If I were you I'd just buy some slugs and try them in your current barrel first, then if your not happy get on the phone with the barrel maker and tell them what you wanna shoot and see what they say.
@@meatheadmarksman2013 thanks for getting back to me
@@meatheadmarksman2013In terms of a 25 caliber what numbers should I be looking at in terms of slugs should be looking at purchasing? If I do figure out what kind of slugs work best for my standard Barrel isn't there an advantage to purchasing a barrel that shoots both pellets and slugs because it'll save you from making any adjustments when you alternate from slugs to pellets in terms of the spring rate? @meatheadmarksman2013
@surreallife777 id get the smallest quantities of each slug you wanna try that are available to you, often slug companies will sell a sample pack which is a nice easy way to get a few different weights. Generally speaking shorter and lighter slugs are more likely to work well in a pellet barrel as they are more likely to stabilise with a slower twist rate
@@meatheadmarksman2013 Ok I’ll give it a try. Thanks.
What program did u use and where did u get the spreadsheet.
Microsoft Excel mate, made it myself
I purchased the Kervan Airboss K1 25 cal. I would like to shoot both slugs and pellets. In order for me to do this do I need to change to a different liner? Or do I just have to experiment? The ideal barrel from what I understand would be the FX smooth twist, superior X barrel I have not polished the barrel yet.
Damn! Has it really been two years? Sorry to see the channel die.
Not that the channel is dying!! He lost everything in a flood 😢
The smell test is what sold me! I have the helix, it's the best value in a scope on the market. I saved $4500!
Thanks for the info mate I’ll be looking into this
What a joke
Sent a 👍 in first 10 seconds just for the name of your channel
I’ve had nothing but bad results with these.
The RC ball bearing mod will fix the trigger.
What a great vid Meat 😉👍 I've got exactly same gun set up and have been wondering how to go about tooning it. I'm in UK though so gotta keep it under (sub) 12ft/lb. I shoot .22 HADES, 15.84 Grain weights because they're a superb consistent pellet and hardly get any flyers ever. 😉👍 NICE ONE 👍
More videos to come??
Sorry guy.. but I understood f all about how you actually reached you tune
We miss you mate, hope your keeping well.
Be terrible thing if one was to accidentally machine a series of ports into the end of the barrel about 15mm from the muzzle, and similar at the rear of the shroud.
I have a hk.22lr and its so quite without ear pro when shooting, had to shoot the ground a few times to make sure it was even shooting and it was just so quite could not tell.
This is my 1st bow. Still using it and learning...cant wait to put down a deer.
