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!

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.

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.

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.

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

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!

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.

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.

fx and everyone that shoots fx air rifle should be thankful to have you guys at the front line of advancing our future.. thank you!!!

Nice to see your focusing on the .25 cal guys , and all the work you've done. Thank you 🙏

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

Passion, talent, and dedication. What a perfect storm. Great work guys!

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.

Excellent Matt, congratulations...Your drive and passion is inspiring

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.

Great to see there are still good people out there that care about what their doing!! Keep up the great work, and I will continue to support with my money!!!

Thanks a lot and congratulations to the team for all the hard work and how much you share.

Congrats to all but most especially a heartfelt and excited "bravo" for your tireless work toward making something good into something much better. Thinking back over recent years I have seen so much change for the better in our sport and the majority of that change is because of your influence. Thank you for that. I am currently shooting Javelin 26gr gen-1 in .22 out of my Wildcat MKIII BT and cannot have imagined for better until I saw this video...!!!! That is Vision! Be blessed with all that you need.

Thanks guys for putting together a very informative video. Never realized how much work, passion and effort goes into developing a slug. Looking forward to trying them out.

As an American, I can lay hands on just about anything in the world of firearms, but these new FX rifles are on another level. To be able to shoot .30 slugs out to 150m is incredible, and they still have energy at that range! It is a testament to all of your hard work, and I almost dare not ask if you will be stepping into the 9mm and .357 projectiles next. Here in the US, people still think that airgun = BB gun, and until they shoot one, they dismiss it out of hand. What I’m excited for next is to see what an air pistol can be with these projectiles.
