Rainson Edge-X preview, an exciting new rifle coming to the UK!

[@yetiwheeler4121]

Welcome back nice to see you🤠

[@bigdansairguns83]

Thanks Yeti!

[@henrymoreland8719]

Having waited ( so far ) near on 11 months on a Reximex Ixia gen2 in FAC, also Turkish, I suggest you don't hold your breath. That said, Thanks for showing Dan, always good to see what's coming.

[@bigdansairguns83]

Hi Henry! I've contacted our suppliers and the Ixia FAC rifles don't have enough demand at this moment in time for the importer to make an order however they're going to let me know if there's any change. I'll let you know as soon as I hear anything. Thanks Henry and all the best.

[@henrymoreland8719]

Just to be clear. No blame directed at BDA ( Dan ), Wasn't ordered through him. However, " not enough demand " Is at least the forth reason ( excuse ) I have had either, relayed to me, or heard direct from the importers. Damn shame, as on paper, the Ixia ticked most of the boxes, for me.

[@bigdansairguns83]

@@henrymoreland8719 Hi Henry. Yeah the Ixia would make a superb FAC rifle but finger's crossed and if demand does rise they'll definitely get them on the way. I actually directly spoke to the importer upon reading your comment and that was the official answer straight from the horse's mouth. So although it's not good news I'll admit at least we've got to the bottom of it. Thanks Henry and fingers crossed they get more interest in the future.

Hi Casper! I definitely think so all of the ingredients are there and the walnut model looks especially tasty! Don't want to say much until we have the production rifle in my mitts though.

[@brynybach7741]

Look ok initially but the bottle looks a bit to long for anything but a small (ie narrow) moderator to fit, unless of course the angle of the camera just didn't show us properly. It would as you mentioned, be nice to see a wooden stock perhaps? Nice little teaser to wet our appetite. 😁 👍

Hi Jon! I'm not bad matey thanks ever so much I hope you've been keeping well, yeah it should hopefully prove to be an interesting little monster.

[@phillipsharpe6459]

Nice looking rifle, i wonder what it shoots like, ? Nice one dan ,😁👍

[@bigdansairguns83]

Hi Phillip! From what little testing I've done with this particular rifle it shot very very well at 30 yards. The Turks are knocking out some excellent barrels lately.

[@jefferydoubler2870]

Not my cup of tea the style but I am liking it can't wait to see your full review Nice one Dan for getting it out here 👍

[@bigdansairguns83]

Thanks Jeffery! I'm not a major tactical fan myself and this definitely straddles the line between a smart bullpup and Walter Mitty Rambo rifle. That said the walnut is a fantastic looking gun and what with it coming with a regulator will definitely make it stand out compared to the competition.

[@heathhalfhill6401]

This is a really nice platform. I would love to see what the .22 cal in FAC is capable of with accuracy. As you know my favorite hunting pellet is the Daisy Hollow Point 15.4 grain and am curious how they group in this rifle. They should…if this barrel is like my other .22 cal barrels…have the same POI as JSB Hades. I never have to re-zero the gun between those 2 rounds out to 50 yards. Both should be well under sub MOA. Looking forward to your review on this gun. Till then God bless.

[@bigdansairguns83]

Hi Heath! It's an interesting thing isn't it? I still need to get my mitts on those Daisy pellets but it's hard to find an importer for them in the UK. I think the Edge-X will be pretty popular with the tactical crowd and especially the boys that like using night vision, plus it's another Turkish rifle with a regulator like the Reximex Ixia and Mito, if these are successful finger's crossed we might start seeing some other rifles being built with regs like the Krals. Thanks Heath and look after yourself buddy.

[@clangerbasher]

Sling studs look like standard QD cups.

[@bigdansairguns83]

Hey Clangerbasher! They are indeed, it's an interesting way of getting around fitting a sling. It's nice and simple just like me. 😉

Mmm I think I’m looking at my new gun? As I was watching the film I was thinking I wonder if they are going to do it in a walnut stock? Then you said the magic words! And if it’s price around £600 then I’m in 🙌🏽😎👍🏽

[@bigdansairguns83]

Hi Lloyd! Take a look at some of the images online at the walnut it's a pretty looking little thing too especially if it has the marine barrel. Thanks Lloyd, it'd be nice if we could get the walnut when we do the review to stand if alongside the black.

[@roonimac]

What is a marine barrel and can you change the bottle for a cf one?

[@Professor-Jack]

Hello Dan Very nice to see you back to what you are really good at Describing the gun extremely well And I have to say another belter I like this However my good man I’m still waiting on you doing the review of KRAL EMPIRE X And remember to also add in the Terminator 177 s Take it easy I’m glad you are busy especially today s so called U.K = United Kingdom and every ones sitting around waiting on stock and bullet s the prices going through the roof. Brexit yep those who wanted to jump ship

[@bigdansairguns83]

Hi Prof! I haven't forgotten buddy the Empire will be coming soon. Things are mad at the moment aren't they? I've advised everyone to buy as much lead as they sensibly can. Once the lead ban kicks in here prices are sure to skyrocket. Get what your guns like while you can matey.

[@uksnusreviews9455]

Any idea when it will be available yet Dan? I'd like the camo version in .177

[@alblackwell7154]

Any Idea what the trigger pull is set at? is it adjustable?

[@bigdansairguns83]

Hi Al! I couldn't tell you off the top of my head but the new models have lightened triggers and they are definitely adjustable. Sadly I don't have an exact number for the pull weight however. Thanks Al and I hope this helps.

[@gumbystown]

QD sling mounts aren't new they've been around for probably 25 years and they're on a few different air rifles and they're nice but if they're not a good quality ones the amount can pop off and the gun come smashing onto the ground.

[@bigdansairguns83]

Hi Derrick. They're certainly a rarity and to my knowledge new to the UK. Although obviously not enough to give a proper verdict I've had a play with these (clicking them is addictive) and they seem pretty tight/well made so finger's crossed no issues should arise there.

[@gumbystown]

@@bigdansairguns83 hello big Dan ....the Walther Reign has QD Mount holes also and I believe those are in the UK and it is super scary when comes undone I caught mine in mid-air before it actually hit the ground but I could see it actually happening easily.

[@bigdansairguns83]

@@gumbystown Hi Derrick! Honestly I never knew the Reign had them but then we only stocked them very briefly. The QD studs on these lock in really positively so finger's crossed it shouldn't be a problem.. that said the only way we'll find out is in a few years when they've had plenty of use and abuse. Only time will tell on this one Derrick I guess matey.

[@hendrickotto103]

Hello Dan - very interesting this one ! But I hope this being a pre-series gun, it is not too late to make some critical remarks from which the production versions could benefit. . Maybe ASI could use their clout to get Rainson to redesign the buttpad to be also vertically adjustable. This is very much needed for bullpups and semi bp's. I would like to see more detail of the extension parts of the pad to see if it could be made longer than shown and to see how solid / rigid it is. You might try your substantial muscle to try that also - wriggling around a bit. Also the height over which the cheek rest is adjustable seems quite limited. I do appreciate that there may be too little space inside the butt assembly for that however. A basic design aspect that cannot be corrected is the short length over which the barrel is clamped. That's for another model, unfortunately... The short barrel tenon is less obvious because it's masked by the side "pic" rail assy. ALSO, I don't quite see why they fitted a STEPPED RAIL on top of the action. Possibly the lower part serves for red dot type of sights ?!

[@jchriss4269]

How long is the barrel on that prototype

[@bigdansairguns83]

The barrel is 58cm bud.

[@bobritter7197]

Looks great, particularly for the price, looks like the full package. But is the barrel any good?

[@bigdansairguns83]

Hi Bob! I can't say too much yet until we get the production models in but from what limited testing I've been able to do with the rifle quickly at 30 yards it seems pretty much spot on. 20p groups at that distance. The Turkish barrels have really come on leaps and bounds. It'd be fantastic if the .177 could mimic the results we were getting from our Pretensis!

[@johnbaker7153]

How long do you think it will be when you will have them on sale

[@bigdansairguns83]

Hi John! They should be ready by very early August finger's crossed. Take that with a slight pinch of salt though as you know what shipping dates can be like.

Hi mate! A fellow reviewer I'll make sure to subscribe buddy! They're not externally adjustable but the regulator is an adjustable unit, I've just spoken to A-S-I and the first batch will be .177 and .22 only.

It seems to be an interesting rifle for having a large air tank which adds a lot of autonomy, the design of the stock seems to be also attractive except in the area between the barrel and the regulator valve which is in my opinion very ugly in contrast to the rest of the rifle .

Hi Carlos! I agree, although I'm not a fan of "tactical" rifles I do like the looks of this one barring the regulator section. It's a genuinely sweet looking rifle in the walnut and who knows they might even change that area up a bit with the production rifles. Thanks Carlos!
