This is the kind of thing that makes me proud to be a swede. Attention to detail and quality is second to none. Absolutley gorgeus
Except the errors made in assembly.. 8 bolt pattern not tightened from inside out but in a circle for example
I have never wanted an FX airgun more than I do now.
Probably one of the best sales videos.
@@fredbrackely😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Merci FX i'm french, we are late for to make your employees happy. It's beautiful.👍
Well done leaving drone "drama" in video.
The girls omg so beautiful
I'm impressed at how clean and spotless the whole operation is, unlike most gun manufacturing facilities that I've been in.
Well, you've got that right.
Yeah, compare that maybe with Edgun. Fx Airguns is next level.
SO happy to see so many actual PEOPLE working on the guns!
Makes me want to learn Swedish and move there to date that blonde, too.
Took me two years to be able to afford my Impact and two more to pay it off, absolutely the best decision I’ve ever made in PCP. I watched and told my wife these people put together my airgun. I will have another one day! Thank you all in the pride you take in your craftsmanship.
OMG. I am blown away. But I do have to put myself in their place. Sticking a camera in my face all day would get old. Thank you to all you guys for allowing us to see what you guys do. If i can save up 2000 US dollars. I will buy one of your guns.
9:25 female hand model, she has such pretty hands.
The factory is impressive, the work environment doesn't seemed rushed or chaotic. The workers seem happy and enjoying the work. The management doesn't seem oppressive and disgruntled. The quality and precision of the equipment seems to be the main goal above sheer work output or speed. No one is rushing, taking care they do a good job at their stations.
Would have liked to have a tour of the design department.
Thanks for the tour!!
And that's why you don't shift production to China. This is pure quality.
Good design+modern equipment+happy workforce+pleasant working environment=excellent products.
Wow. No wonder they're so expensive. Amazing technology. Amazingly clean and modern shop. Healthy, happy employees. Crazy beautiful machining. I will have one one day. I must have.
Damn, this factory is in another level, even medical production factories are this clean.
This is how every factory should look !
Not a tacky uk BSA etc factory in run down Birmingham
Upon further watching the folks at this site. I've worked as a mechanical designer for 30 plus years. I'd sell my home, and move there to work at such a great place. Where it seems everyone gets along, takes pride in their work and cranks out a first rate product. I so wish I was earlier in my career to work at such an amazing place.
I thought how could they not make an amazing product in such a nice facility and that quality of tooling. Top shelf company.
I like shooting FX airguns! Thanks for giving us an inside look at your nice workplace/facility. Nice to see where my gun came from and all the workers who made it.
I have the FX Wildcat .25 and have been very pleased with everything about it.
I had NO idea how much work was involved with the process of making and assembly of these guns. I notice how most stations have their own measuring devices for accuracy. This is a manufacture that I would invest in. I like the way they make sure their people are happy and treated well.
Makes me proud being Swedish 👍
And probably quite informative for out-of-Sweden viewers. Typical "at work culture" in Sweden, and if you noticed, nobody's called "Sir".
Fredrik Axelsson (Owner/Founder) is called "Fredrik".
That part is quite fun explaining to my US friends 😊
Its strange to see so many young people in a company like that
@@yak-machining Yes , and all of them white also :)
What an awesome company to work for! Seems like they really take care of their employees not to mention the beautiful products they produce.
Super impressive operation, now that i have seen their operating procedures and high level of craftsmanship i now know why my M3 never ceases to amaze me, thanks for the tour Steve! Great job to you and everyone at FX Airguns!
“WOW” there are no words I thought I worked in a world class facility until I seen yours. Just WOW thanks for sharing this.
I'm sold! Not only an extraordinary process but sounds like a great company to work for too. Massages?! Hello, yeah that company knows what it's about!
Very impressive to see this operation in my old home town. I had my first evening and weekend job in the same building as the FX offices back in the early 90's but back then it was a computer data backup company housed there.
I’m amazed at how it seems everyone knows English at least to the point they can communicate we Americans can barely even speak English ourselves sometimes
Really impressive facility. Looks like they are manufacturing medical grade equipment. Everything is so clean and orderly. I was really glad to see the man straightening out the liners and getting them perfect!
a world-famous air rifle company, I am very impressed with their products
This was a cool video! My Dad was a pure blood swede and he would have loved to see this and probably would have bought an FX gun. I’m proud to own an Impact and it’s cool to see the factory and people that made it!
The scale of craftsmanship and quality control is amazing. Nice job capturing it!
It is not bad.
I however several times looked for a job in aerospace sector, that most often 1 up other things in regard to quality. But never got those jobs even if i am well qualified.
I am / was ( cuz i am retired now ) so tired of working for / with idiots.
Mind you FX assembled my Maverick with " never come apart" thread lock, in places where it are supposed to come apart, that cost me the factory transfer port when i put in a dual port,,,,, CUZ i had to use that much force,,,,, and heat it up way more than i liked to do ( am familiar with working with thread lock )
AND my cocking lever,,,, just snapped off
PS: i can understand FX use ABB cobots, but really they should have gotten burly Danish made Universal robots.
Lol really? $2400 for an air rifle this should be lights out perfect … it isn’t … not even close !!!
@@shawnsponds i had 2 impact m3 and they both started leaking air like crazy in less then 20 shots.
@@shawnsponds Plus still us plastic magazines. why?
Fantastic! Great video of the factory. Nice up close shots of the employees and the machinery. Now people get to see why their toys cost as much as they do. Worth every penny.
Wow! I can’t remember the last time I watched a video this long and was so entertained. An absolutely amazing, technologically advanced facility and an owner the values and takes great care of his employees. Bravo! And the airguns, oh the beautiful airguns!!! My idea of Disneyland!
All of that food and all those refrigerators you see around there are free food & drink for the employees too. I took full advantage, hehe 😁. Steve
That was a great video of FX Airguns factory. Their business has grown way bigger than I expected. Having my own CNC business I appreciate the quality of my own Impact.
Fascinating Manufacturing Facility. What struck me was how Spotless the place was. I'd love working there.
Wish i can be an employee there...workmanship n the atmosphere of wana wrk there s tooo good...
Thank you for an amazing tour and insight. Love seeing the many folks that had a part in producing my Impact M3. A lot of dedicated employees that appear to be content with their job and proud to be an integral cog in the machine. Kudos to all.
Thank you so much! These people look like they enjoy what they do and take pride in their work, which is much needed in the US. I think I will be looking into purchasing one of these pellet guns.
As an engineer it's awesome to see a clean working environment like this one, it's great to see other shops working in such a cleanly state, I really didn't think an airgun company would be this nice a place to work, every engineering business should aspire to build these kinds of cleanly working conditions. well done guys! and great video too! :-)
The key to successful products are happy healthy employees.
Pretty simple math.
Proud to be 🇸🇪 Viking.
man Steve, you left nothing out of this fx factory manufacturing video. excellent.
Wow! FX is growing with all the advance equipment. Impact must be a perfect machine right now.
I think you're probably correct. There's romance in seeing old footage of FORD employees on the line, but then jump ahead to Peavey and they made nearly all their instruments with cnc machines and the result is near perfection. Unfortunately, or not, removing the human element can lead to a better product, but as we see we need both.
I've had a new in the box FX Impact M3 Sniper 30 cal for about 2 years that I've never shot. Plan on finally breaking it in this year. I've been on project management, QA, QC, etc for decades and I'm extremely impressed with the build quality of FX and their warehouse. Great people, great products. Thanks Steve.
You guys make AIRGUNS and your facility looks nicer than a global aerospace plant I have seen. Well done.
Congratulate your janitors and your shop workers for all the little efforts they put into keeping things clean and tidy.
Nice balance of robotics/automation and human assembly.
No wonder the cost of the FX air guns are high but with this tight a ship and the size of inventory it's some what understandable. Good looking high lights of the operations.
Thanks, for all your hard work. Great to see behind the scenes! It would be interesting to see this footage following a build of one model, consecutively, stat to finish.
I like the idea 💡 🤓. Steve
@@AEAC . Please visit the spain cometa airguns
That's why I own three FX Impacts. Top notch quality, attention to detail, and staying in front of innovation. Just like the new Panthera. I used to work in an Aerospace Machine shop that was spotless like the FX Facility. The Aerospace manufacture that I work for now, can't say that about the shop floor there. Thankfully I work in the front office in Supply Chain. People can hate on FX all they want, but they put out a quality product, and nothing is ever perfect, and without imperfections, but they have pride in their products, and it shows just with Steve's tour of the facility for a second time. I have other airguns, but my Impacts are the most accurate out of my collection. Nice video Steve. and it's nice to see some of the tools used to assemble the airguns, and the processes.
De verdad que son armas hermosas los empleados se le ve la alegria del trabajo es usted un afortunado en tener tres de estas hermosuras estoy soñando con una de estas pero su precio es muy alto felicidades hermano dizfrutelas la verdad sin unas maravillas
How wonderful, it's a consumer dream, to acquire an FX Impact! Congratulations Steve, great video.
FX = World Class Products!
Thanks for sharing this. I had no idea FX was this evolved !!!
I am impressed, at the operation and the number of people they employ, I would love to work in R&D there.
Fantastic to see this! Thank you for taking the time to give us an inside look.
Wow! They have made many changes since we were there last. Always moving forward👍. That’s cool. The cost of the technology/machines/tooling/building/workers/ect…is why a quality airgun are the cost that they are. High precision quality is not cheap. Thanks Steve. Very cool to be back and see what’s changed.
Bought one two months ago... very pleased with it.
Just amazing to see how these guns are made. Incredible engineering. Makes me love M3 even more.
Wow - that is an impressive factory, and the attention to detail by the employees is refreshing. There is No Way I am not buying one of these!
I started out looking at the Benjamin Armada and I ended up looking at the FX Panthera 700. This video confirms I've made the right decision.
Best airguns in the world hands down! At least the most popular look at the scale of this operation this is almost to revealing I’m assuming Fredrick wants some things behind closed doors I still can’t believe we get to see this much thank you what a treat !
Haha, there was only 1 small room they asked me to keep private... the rest I had to myself, totally unshaparoned. I feel like that says a lot about them and their 💯 confidence level in their people & processes. They're also showing great vulnerability with y'all in allowing me share at this level. Best, Steve
I wound love to have a few unpainted parts for my m3 how badass would that be I would feel like a king haha
Very nice work ethics and place to be. The incentives to get the massage or a few other things is very positive. Seems everybody is enjoying and happy after work. From what I can see in the people that I didn't see the supervision and management is very responsible and good work ethics that reflect in the employees thank you all, by the way I just ordered this morning 6 hours ago my new 30 cal custom accessories few other modifications. Looking forward within a week. God bless you all
Wow! Pretty girls. This must be sweden😁🥰
I feel like a kid that got the golden ticket into Wonka's factory. Thanks for this GREAT video!
Wow. Thanks for all that you do to promote the air rifle industry. What a cool trip that must have been.
Wowwww...
This is my dream air gun...
I wish i were from SWEDEN 🇸🇪.. 😇
I really love this gun... I wish that fx impact mk3 is available😢...
❤❤❤❤
So cool, thanks for sharing Steve! Great to see all of the folks who make the guns we sell! Thanks FX family!!
Fredrick was a master of the pcp , he built a complete game changer in accuracy. I should know I had one of his CNC geminis .
Amazing how much they've grown and evolved since I was last there. That was only a few years ago. A huge congrats to Fredrick and Johan! All of the jobs look fun except the last one where the guy has to hand pump. I would not last in that position lol
... I couldn't resist 😆. That fella was working his hiney off for them/us. Steve
He deserves the massage.
The hand pump dude is rookie
@@AEAC Jag vill ha ett FX-gevär men jag har inte pengarna eftersom FX-gevär i Indonesien är väldigt dyra
@@AEAC I want a FX rifle but I don't have the money because FX rifles in Indonesia are very expensive
the workmanship of the rifle is very precise and detailed, even though the price of this rifle is quite expensive, people who buy it will feel satisfied 👍🏻
I, dream of having an fx impact m3, I'm from Indonesia, I love fxairgun
Nice video of this fantastic company. After seeing this I'm even more proud of my 2022 FX Dreamline Tactical .22
When you look at this operation and the quality of the FX line you can understand why these Airguns are so expensive .
Being one of the most critical aspects for accuracy it amazes me the barrel straightening is done by human hands .
What an operation! I am thoroughly impressed.
Looks like a really good place to work. Great atmosphere great people very clean nice technology … Plus all the benefits
Excellent video. Amazing facilities and it is impressive that so many FX employees speak English as a second language.
Nice to see Matt popping up in the vid 👍
Content creators like yourselves are real "Spokesmen" for the rest of us enthusiasts 👍
Wow! They really running a tight ship.Thanks for sharing ,Steve.
Amazing manufacturing airgun... I am from Indonesian country. Like airgun FX impact. Quality is the best
Good stuff and thanks for giving us a glimpse into the FX factory. That was awesome man.
What a cool 😎 place to work.. The 🇸🇪 are cool people.. Amazing factory and facilities.. Lots of lovely girls there 😂😄
Thanks, really enjoyed the tour 👌🇸🇪🔫😁
Wow, what a cool factory tour. Really impressed!
Very, very impressive operation.
Growing up in rual America and hunting for food and sport my entire life, I've always been into firearms and own several . I have never had an interest or need for an airgun. I do now and will be researching and determining which FX to purchase.
Nice work!
wel wel wel thank you Steve that was awesom i could work in that factory in a flash
STEVE !!! This is so great. I love this kind of content. It's always amazing seeing the factories of products I admire, own, or want to own. Alembic Bass, Mesa Boogie, EMG, and other musical legends are near me, and I love that I can visit in minutes. I always wonder if the employees realize how convenient it is if they are into that sort of thing...
EDIT : My Gosh, this place is HUGE ! Who would've ever known. I know in reality airgun companies are considered small businesses and there aren't that many world wide, even though we think they are huge like Ford Motor Company, or something...
Awesome! Thanks for sharing this videos Steve... Happy thanksgiving.🙂🤗❤️
Wow that’s amazing Steve great job capturing airgun Mecca:)
One Word: GREAT
(both, your video and the FX factory of course ;)
Had one FX dreamline and i was satisfied with the performance.
Very interesting and impressive quality control. Thank you
I love that your Diana Tour video got 300,000 views. Way to kick that algorithm's ass! Great job! ...and the FX Tour is on it's way too! Good stuff!
Thanks buddy... figuring it out, I think. We should compare notes some time... as I've done with other Airgun TH-camrs. Steve
AMAZING THANK FOR THE TOUR 🇬🇧✌🏼🤩
I see predator international is now distributing for other companies with I hope quality control too. Olympia Shot is doing well. Fx holds the bar comfortably well above and out of reach from others, so the standard of the bar does not diminish or be compromised. Thank you, FX .
If I'm not mistaken, that's "Olympia Shot" and "Air Rifel Ammunition" that Predator is distributing for now. Double check me. Best, Steve
What an amazing manufacturing facility! Thanks for the tour! Happy Thanksgiving.
Happy Thanksgiving 😊
After looking at this video i need an FX now.
Que bellezas de máquinas que logran hacer,me refiero a los rifles ,mucha dedicación para lograr esa calidad de armas , felicitaciones !!!
Excelente trabalho!!!!
Tinha duvidas agora tenho certeza sobre a aquisição de uma Impact!!!!
Great stuff man, helps build a great story, I have many of their rifles, killer innovation.
I just bought an fx Dreamline and glad i did . There employees all look verryhappy!
Fantastic,what wouldn’t I do to work there!!!
Thanks for showing us where our well spent money goes. The FX brand is is a good quality product and this facility shows it.
Great film. Proud to be a Swede!
I have been watching FX products from distant countries for a long time, and I really wanted to go there and fix some, do not finish, hello everyone, good luck to you FX company
This video is great. Thank you. I'm a Systems Engineer for servers, control systems and instrumentation historians for PLC's and DCS systems at a paper mill and find this video extremely interesting. I didn't see any centralized PLC's or DCS systems in this video and am curious how they are dealing with their real-time manufacturing and historical data. We use Rockwell, Foxboro, DeltaV, ABB, OSI Pi and DataParc currently. I'm really curious what they are using.
In a few places in the video, I shared the etched QR codes on the guns, the employees scanning them & assigning I.D. decals, and station tablets to track movement (and who worked on it) I presume. Not sure if that's what you're asking but that's all in there 😊. Steve
@@AEAC I've enjoyed most of your videos and this one, imo, is the best. But I'm also biased because of my profession, and I own mostly all FX air gun except for one. It was truly a treat to wake up this morning and see a new video available from you and to top it off one of the best ones. I was hyper focused on this video for every second of the entire 59 minutes. GB 👏
I bet the lad on the air pumps is like hulk at the end if the week.
Very impressed. Fx knows how to look after there employees ❤
Wow, pretty impressive. I love how they use empty pellet tins for lube.
The guy testing the air pumps must be one of the fittest persons in the factory.
