FX Airguns Air Rifle DRS .22 Synthetic EXP 500
R18,535.00
FX Airguns Air Rifle DRS .22 Synthetic EXP 500 – The FX DRS platform has been built from the ground up to meet the needs of the most demanding shooters. The simple yet sophisticated FX DRS design allowed us to create a true high-end airgun like never before. By eliminating some of the distinguishing features inherent to airguns, such as the air tank, the FX DRS looks more minimalistic in design with the appearance of a traditional rifle. All this while still maintaining the important features you’ve come to expect from a modern high-end airgun.
FX DRS is modular in design, giving the user many options to customise it to their specific needs. The over-the-barrel air tank not only creates a more traditional look but also enhances barrel stability, eliminating the need for a conventional carbon fiber bottle. The result? A sleek and powerful hunting companion that rises above all expectations. Performance meets perfection with the modular plenum design, cleverly disguised as a traditional magazine.
With the latest AMP regulator version, the FX DRS classic ensures unrivalled consistency in velocity, giving you the edge you need in any shooting scenario.
FX DRS Classic – Two Beautiful Stock Options
The FX DRS Classic is available in two stunning finishes to suit different tastes and needs.
Choose the sleek black synthetic soft-touch stock if you want a modern and bold look. This option not only looks cutting-edge, but it also feels comfortable and secure in your hands. The soft-touch finish delivers a confident grip, while the rugged construction stands up to demanding outdoor use.
Alternatively, the timeless Minelli walnut stock option brings classic elegance to your shooting experience. Made from genuine Italian Minelli walnut, this stock adds warmth, character, and a luxurious feel to every outing. It’s perfect for shooters who appreciate traditional craftsmanship and refined style.
Performance and Features You’ll Appreciate

About FX Airguns
FX Airguns South Africa represents one of the most recognised names in the modern PCP airgun industry. Founded by Fredrik Axelsson in Mariestad, Sweden, in 1999, FX grew from one airgun enthusiast's pursuit of a better rifle into an internationally respected manufacturer known for precision, adjustability and innovative airgun technology.
Fredrik's original goal was straightforward: create the type of airgun he wanted to own and shoot. That philosophy continues to influence the company's approach today, with FX continually developing new technologies designed to improve accuracy, consistency, efficiency and the overall shooting experience.
Swedish Airgun Engineering
FX Airguns combines modern engineering with specialist manufacturing at its Swedish facilities. Its rifles are developed by a team of experienced craftsmen, engineers and airgun enthusiasts who share a strong interest in advancing PCP technology.
Quality control forms an important part of this manufacturing process. Rifles undergo testing before leaving the factory to ensure their systems operate as intended and meet the manufacturer's performance requirements.
This combination of engineering, manufacturing and testing has helped establish FX as a premium name among recreational shooters, competitive marksmen and serious airgun enthusiasts worldwide.
Innovation That Changed PCP Airguns
Innovation has always been central to the FX philosophy.
Over the years, the company has developed technologies that give shooters greater control over how their rifles perform. Depending on the model, FX rifles can feature adjustable regulators, external power adjustments, interchangeable barrel systems and other tuning options.
The company's Smooth Twist X (STX) barrel system is particularly well known among airgun enthusiasts. Its modular approach allows compatible rifles to be configured for different projectile types and shooting requirements.
These developments have helped make advanced adjustability one of the defining characteristics associated with modern FX PCP rifles.
Built for Accuracy and Consistency
Precision is one of the main reasons shooters choose FX.
A carefully regulated PCP system can provide consistent shot-to-shot performance, while high-quality barrel technology helps shooters achieve the accuracy required for target shooting, competition and other appropriate airgun applications.
However, performance isn't only about power. Air efficiency, balance, ergonomics, adjustability and consistency all contribute to the overall shooting experience.
FX develops its platforms with these factors in mind, creating rifles that shooters can configure according to their individual requirements.
FX Air Rifles for Different Shooters
The FX range includes PCP airguns developed for a variety of shooting disciplines and preferences.
Well-known platforms have included models from the Impact, Dynamic, Panthera, DRS and Crown families, with different configurations available depending on the market and model generation.
Some shooters prioritise compact dimensions and portability. Others want high shot counts, extensive adjustment or platforms designed around precision shooting. FX's broad product ecosystem allows enthusiasts to select a rifle and compatible accessories suited to their particular requirements.
Accessories, Upgrades and PCP Equipment
Another advantage of the FX ecosystem is the extensive selection of compatible equipment.
Depending on the rifle, shooters may be able to choose from magazines, barrel components, air bottles, filling equipment, optics mounting solutions and other accessories.
When purchasing upgrades, always confirm compatibility with the exact FX model and generation. Components designed for one platform aren't automatically compatible with another.
FX Airguns South Africa
For local enthusiasts, FX Airguns South Africa products provide access to Swedish-designed PCP technology without having to look exclusively to international markets.
Having access to compatible accessories, replacement components and knowledgeable local suppliers is particularly valuable with advanced PCP platforms because many rifles offer significantly more adjustment than traditional airguns.
Whether you're entering the world of PCP airguns or upgrading an existing precision setup, FX offers platforms ranging from versatile all-round rifles to highly specialised systems.
