    I think it probably will

    Daystate use LW barrels as well, so the barrel OD should be ok, you'll have to 'do the maths' on how far it reflexes back though.

    I've a Daystate Airstream MK3 (I think) here in .177 & its very good.

    The fact that Daystate and FX use Walther barrels is irrelevant I'm afraid.

    Daystate rifles and FX Verminators both have shrouded barrels, so it's the diameter of the shroud that's important.

    A Veminator doesn't have a shrouded barrel, does it? Last one I saw didn't.

    As for fit, it also depends how far it comes back over the barrel, the cylinder may get in the way.

    Graham, whilst it is possible to buy some FX guns with a sleeved LW barrel, the vast majority use the standard LW barrels (2 different sizes offered). The Verminator uses the standard barrel.

    i think you can retro fit them i think you have to get an oring that is the right size to go over the barrel and prevent any air coming out. as others have said you may want to look at the sizes to make sure one would fit.

    Verminators have shrouded barrels.

    Cut and pasted off BAR's website.

    The Lothar Walther match grade shrouded barrel also has a half-inch male thread,
    onto which you can fit your own choice of quality silencer to take this rifle into the super-quiet league.

    That's right. Can anyone who has a Vemri please tell me the length between the end of the front tube to the front end of the barrel ? TA
