The FX DRS MkII Classic in walnut, tuned to sub 12 ft/lb in .177. Short, slim and quick to point in a hide or under woodland cover. Also ideal for walking around with as the rifle is extremely lighweight.
Short air rifles usually ask for a compromise somewhere, and the interesting thing here is how little this one gives up. At 12 ft/lb a shorter barrel matters far less than it does at FAC power, because the pellet is not being asked to make use of a long column of air. What you gain is a rifle that comes up and stays on target in the sort of cramped ground where a full length barrel and moderator start catching on branches and hide netting.
Walnut is the reason most people choose this over the ambidextrous synthetic Micro 380 mm, and the trade is worth being honest about. Wood is heavier, it wants drying off after a wet morning, and there is no adjustment on the comb. In return you get a stock that fills the hand properly and a rifle that will still look right in twenty years.
Two things to think about before ordering. The 30 MOA rail is aimed at long range work, and with some scopes at 25 or 30 yards you can run short of downward adjustment, so check your mount height. And a barrel this short means a long moderator shifts the balance noticeably, which is worth bearing in mind when picking one from our air rifle moderators. If you want the extra length back, the 500 mm Standard covers the same ground in synthetic.
In England and Wales a sub 12 ft/lb air rifle needs no certificate for an over 18, though Scotland requires an air weapon certificate. That makes this a straightforward choice for feed stations, hides and cluttered woodland, and it sits at the short end of the FX Airguns air rifles range.
