    How left handed is the left handed FX Wildcat?

    It is a true left-hander with cocking arm and magazine slot on LHS?

    Many thanks

    Chris

    I don't think, as far as I know that there is a Leftie available

    A few places are selling them: 'The Airgun centre', 'Pellpax'...

    but only the synthetic stocked version.

    Just wondering what you get for an extra £50

    Ooh, I am surprised as well as interested Synthetic would be my choice too. I would definitely need the magazine on the LH side for cheek comfort before I bought one. As for the cocking arm, I'm happy to have it on the right hand side (LH option would be good though). As for the extra 50 quid, that's actually not too bad at all as far as 'non standard' goes.

    Just a quick update. I rang The Airgun Centre with the inquiry and was suprised to be told that they no longer stock FX guns, they pretty much had washed their hands of them! I then rang Pellpax and was informed the the left-handed Wildcat was indeed a true left-hander with cocking arm and mag slot on LHS. So there you go folks!

    I'd read about AGC no longer stocking FX due to the amount of 'returns'

    I spoke to someone at Blackpool Air Rifles this afternoon and he was '95%' sure it was a true left-hander. I also asked about the reliability of the gun and he said that the early ones were problematic but most issues had been ironed out now. Although they do have issues with other FX guns.
