Description
The dramatic evolution of airguns has increased the demands of shooters around the world, and an increased desire for more airflow and power air rifles has been observed. While bullpup configurations can more easily add power plenum and ventilation to these demands, a traditional rifle like the FX Crown was limited to these requirements... until now! The FX Crown MKII brings more power and even more options to an already near-perfect platform.
The increased power in the MKII is due to a combination of ventilation and an even larger plenum. The plenum in the FX Crown MKII is increased by 28% compared to the previous model! This larger plenum (the chamber with compressed air located before the transfer port) works together with the transfer port and a new larger valve on the MKII (6.5 mm valve). The combination produces wild results.
Other changes to the Crown include a 20 MOA picatinny mounting base. With air rifles capable of shooting at longer distances, this forward tilt of the mounting base is what allows for more usable elevation adjustment at those longer distances.
FX Crown MKII also has some new sling options. FX has partnered with renowned Norwegian stock manufacturer GRS to deliver the first ever GRS stock for the Air Force! GRS manufactures adjustable ergonomic laminate stocks that are globally recognized as an innovative premium brand. The GRS Crown stock features tool-less adjustments, a wide fore-end and an ergonomic GRS grip, offset and angled for unmatched shooting comfort.
The remaining features of the FX Crown remain unchanged: hammer cocking, airflow adjustment, externally adjustable AMP regulator, ability to change calibers and twist degrees through the Superlight Smooth Twist X (STX) liner. With all this, as well as the highest capacity magazine in its class, the FX Crown has evolved into the most versatile and robust PCP air rifle on the market.
