Faxon Firearms recently released its FX22 lineup of .22 LR firearms constructed of high-quality components. As a result, shooters will enjoy an enhanced rimfire shooting experience that can be passed down for generations. Available in four different models—three rifles and a pistol—the FX22 line has the right option for your situational requirements.
The Faxon Firearms FX22 .22 LR Line
The FX22 line is built from the ground up, combining Faxon’s popular barrels, bolts, and receiver sets with industry-leading stocks, chassis, and accessories. The end result is an excellent rimfire shooting experience for target shooting, plinking, or small game hunting. Not to mention savings in ammo costs and availability.
The line offers you a choice between three different rifles and a pistol. Sharing many of the same characteristics throughout the line, each one also bears its own unique components. This provides shooters with a platform selection based on personal requirements and budget.
All four firearms feature a 6061-T6 aluminum receiver with a black hardcoat anodized finish and Picatinny rail for attaching optics and other accessories. Likewise, 416-R stainless barrels—chambered in .22 LR—with black nitride finish, 1:16 twist, and Sporter chamber promote enhanced accuracy. Correspondingly, a 1/2×28 muzzle thread pitch allows for the attachment of muzzle devices or a suppressor.
Featuring a 17-4 stainless steel bolt and round firing pin profile, the FX22 line boasts a reliable ignition. Likewise, the side Tandemkross Spartan Skeletonized Charging Handle provides for quick and easy charging. Rounds are sent downrange from the included 25-round magazine via the Ruger BX-Trigger with a light, crisp 2.75-pound trigger pull.
FX22 Model-Specific Components
The rifle with GBMFG chassis features a Grey Birch MFG “La Chassis” aluminum stock/chassis with a skeletonized buttstock. Ensuring the perfect fit, the stock includes an adjustable length of pull butt end and adjustable cheek riser. In addition, the rifle includes a 16-inch medium-fluted barrel.
Likewise, the pistol also features the Grey Birch MFG “La Chassis” aluminum chassis, only without the buttstock. However, Grey Birch MFG offers the buttstock separately, which can be installed via the integrated Picatinny stock mount. The pistol also includes an 8.5-inch patented flame-fluted barrel.
The rifle with Magpul stock features the Magpul Hunter X-22 Stock in black reinforced polymer. The stock features three M-Lok slots on the forend and multiple sling attachment points. An ergonomic grip, adjustable length of pull, and comb height provide the perfect fit for any shooter. The rifle includes a 16-inch straight fluted bull barrel, for enhanced accuracy.
Finally, the rifle with Hogue stock features the Hogue Rubber Overmolded stock with texturing on the grip and forend. As a result, the rifle offers secure retention during courses of fire. Additionally, the rifle features a 16-inch pencil barrel with a clean profile.
