This FX Typhoon started life as a regular .177 synthetic model. I picked it up in a kit buy. I parted out all the bits and pieces, but kept the Typhoon, because I like these little rifles :) Lots of cool stuff can be done with them. This one, I've modded a bit. First, I took off the long airtube which now sits under my Weihrauch HW100, and replaced it with an older model Cyclone short tube I picked up from somewhere. I stuffed an original FX regulator in that tube, too.

I had some bits ordered to make it into a .22 using a Royale shrouded barrel, but changed my mind one afternoon when I was bored and ported an old Sheridan brass .20 barrel into it. So there you have it, a regulated .20 FX Typhoon.

Currently it's fitted with a .22 ST barrel I bought though to experiment a bit. I just haven't gotten around to shooting it in that configuration yet :)
