A Worthy Successor: The Next Generation Javelin Slugs Are Here

We decided to drop this video a little earlier than planned, since we will have some Gen 2 sample packs available at RMAC. The .22 cal Gen 2s are on their way to the US as we speak, with .25 and .30 coming soon!

What happened to that guy Gerard? I thought he was a partner when you started the Patriot shop?

I'm really glad we have people like you spearheading this industry. I bought a couple FX guns not because they're awesome but I want to be a part of the bleeding edge growth that you guys are bringing to the table

Really waited for this video. I admire you guys a lot specially Matt and Roelf. I so badly wish for Javelins in .177 cal cause here in India anything above that is not permissible. Anyways, it was a pleasurable hour with a chilled 🍺

I dont know Matt. If anyone else had made a film about something that seems as mundane as airgun slugs, I doubt I would've been able to make it to the end. I have to give it to you, you are a fantastic filmmaker, editor, writer, teacher... the list goes on! Thanks for using your God given gift to its fullest! I highly enjoyed this (and every other) video!

I’ve been on board since 2014 after pigeon paradise pt1. I’ve been watching and seeing this whole thing unfold over time. All I can say is that I have so much respect for Mat and everyone involved and what a privilege it has been to witness it. Congratulations guys.

Congratulations on 500k subscribers 🔥

I’m a physicist that did my masters on the magnetohydrodynamics of the solar wind hitting into the earths magnetic field. Tons of super interesting mathematics used there that were built on the aerodynamic physics from the 60s. Fascinating to see the same effects in ballistics. I’ve watched your vids since 2018, and you’ve finally convinced me to get a proper airgun (Maverick) and some of your slugs to take to my local range. Thanks for the content, love seeing the tough math and work that goes into new product development.

Incredible work as always Matt! Any insight for future possibilities of developing a .357 javelin? The big bore field is RAPIDLY expanding and may be a market for it?

Totally enjoyed this "documentary" and very excited to get my hands on some .25 Patriot Javelin slugs. There has to be a point reached where a slug is a slug is a slug and its exciting that the industry isn't there yet. There is certainly a lot of effort that goes into manufacturing such high quality product. It puts me in mind of custom benchrest centrefire projectiles. Outstanding guys, truly outstanding.

Beautifully made documentary brother. You guys are so passionate about what you do and that's why you guys are so great at it. Keep it up.

brilliant news, I have been waiting for Patriot .25 and .30 slugs since the first .22 Javelins came out - well done - hopefully Giles at airgun 101 will stock them asap.

What a really great video program. I thought it was going to be a bit boring and wasn’t feeling very sleepy so thought I’d watch it. I was pleasantly surprised, it was very interesting and really showed off all of your talents. Proving if people have an interest in things and want to work together as a team and get along well together it can be done. Obviously you had some great testing facilities and help along the way but well done guys. I’m really impressed I will have to try and get a fire arms certificate if I want to shoot any though. As here in the UK we’re held back from shooting air rifles unlike most of the rest of the world to a measly 12ft lb or 16 joules. Without a FAC, but it does give me an incentive to try an obtain one so I can get a more powerful PCP and use your fantastic slugs. I enjoyed watching, thank you.

I can’t wait to get my hands on your 25 cal slugs. I am a FX air gun owner times two.

I was subbed to you from pretty much the beginning on my other YT account, then kinda lost touch for a few years. You've been busy! Very impressed with FX's attitude towards their products. It must be amazing to be involved in something with such enthusiastic people, doing something meaningful. I hardly need to state, my next rifle will be an FX!

Looking to this guy history, he started educational series, excellent ones, then runs a business started with doing ads to FX airgun, then developed Element scopes and the remaining part was a slug and here you go a complete airgun business cycle. But he makes ppl happy with latest tech and done his own busniss right. Clever guy and Thnx Matt.

Congratulations for 500k 🎊🎉 Keep going 👍

This is the best video I've ever seen, awesome quality, the structure, and its content: 👏👏👏. This changes the whole industry , just exceeded my expectations; this is mind blowing.

This is absolutely awesome. Next challenge is a non-lead version.

Good luck Matt, Ralf and Patriot team. Waiting to test the .25 doing some target shooting here in Colombia. Regards.
