FX DRS MKII Redline Laminate Micro 380mm Air Rifle

There are air rifles that do the job, and then there are rifles that make you stop and look twice before you’ve even shouldered them. The FX DRS MKII in Redline Laminate falls firmly into the second category. Micro, beautifully finished, and built on one of the most refined regulated PCP platforms available today, this is the kind of rifle that earns its place in the cabinet — and keeps getting taken out of it.

Product Overview

The DRS MKII has been a firm favourite since FX reworked the platform, and this 380mm Micro variant takes everything that made the original compelling and strips it back to something a little more agile. With its shorter barrel profile and over-the-barrel air cylinder, the whole package sits well-balanced in the hands — no muzzle-heavy sag, no awkward carry. It’s a rifle designed for the person who shoots regularly, moves between positions, and wants a PCP that responds rather than lumbers.

The Redline laminate stock is the obvious talking point visually. The warm tones running through the wood-effect laminate give it real character, and unlike some showpiece rifles it doesn’t compromise on feel either — the classic stock profile sits naturally at the shoulder, and the fore-end M-Lok slots mean you can add a bipod or other accessories without fuss.

Under the bonnet, the MKII brings meaningful mechanical improvements over the outgoing model. The updated Air Pressure Barrel system draws on the Dynamic Block platform’s inlet technology, delivering noticeably better airflow and a more consistent power output across the shot cycle. Combined with the enlarged power plenum, the result is a rifle that shoots cleanly and holds its tune well.

The side lever action is smooth and positive, and the quick-change liner system is a genuine quality-of-life feature — swap calibres without bleeding down the air cylinder, which is far less of a faff than it sounds once you’ve done it a couple of times.

Performance & Benefits

Regulation is the backbone of any serious PCP, and the DRS MKII doesn’t cut corners here. You’re getting consistent, repeatable performance from the first shot to the last, which matters whether you’re plinking at tin cans in the garden or zeroing tightly for pest control work. The improved inlet design means the rifle isn’t just consistent — it’s efficient, extracting more from each fill and giving you a respectable shot count without needing to top up constantly.

The 380mm barrel is short enough to make the rifle genuinely manoeuvrable in tight spaces — walking hedgerows, shooting from a hide, or simply carrying on a longer session — without the kind of velocity drop that would make it feel underpowered. The sub-12 ft/lb tuning across all calibres keeps it firmly within UK legal limits straight from the box.

For those who shoot in more than one calibre, the quick-change liner feature alone is worth serious consideration. Being able to switch between .177 and .22, for example, without a full strip-down or pressure dump is the kind of practical engineering that experienced shooters genuinely appreciate.

Ideal For

The FX DRS MKII Micro suits shooters who want a premium, micro compact PCP for garden target shooting, informal plinking, or light pest control duties. It’s equally at home as a first high-end PCP for someone stepping up from a springer, or as a secondary rifle for an experienced shooter who wants something shorter and quicker-handling than their main setup. The Redline laminate finish also makes it a strong choice for anyone who wants their equipment to look as good as it performs.
