The original FX Wildcat bullpup PCP air rifle quickly became a top selling airgun the world over after its debut in 2015. Now in 2018 the Swedish company bring us the FX Wildcat MKII.
The MKII builds upon the groundbreaking Wildcat, adding the all new FX Interchangeable Barrel system. This is the system that allows users the ability to exchange barrel liners, and if desired upgrade the FX Smooth Twist barrel liner that comes standard with the MKII, to an upgraded FX Smooth Twist X Barrel.
These X Barrel liners are a fully rifled smooth twist barrel, available in varying twist rates and bore specifications that tailor to the vast array of airgun projectile weights and shapes.
This new barrel system lends to a Wildcat that is now much lighter in hand. Other upgrades include an upgraded reloading mechanism, upgraded trigger, and updated airflow that obtains better consistency and shot count, FX tells us.
The rest of the original Wildcat stays perfectly undisturbed. Features include the internal air regulator, easy load magazine system, finger print resistant finish on all high-grade aluminum parts, and a fully shrouded barrel.
FX says that the cocking lever has been perfected to be the smoothest operating sidelever possible. Forward placement of the lever provides quick and soft cocking of the gun with only the slightest of hand movement away from the trigger.
These enhancements are said to solidify the status of the FX Wildcat MKII as a beautifully-designed and executed bullpup from one of the finest airgun manufacturers in the world.
