AGT Update: Factory Custom Vixens, Vulcan 3 & Manul Restocks & What to Expect at BSS

We’ve got some big news for AGT fans—whether you’ve been eyeing a Vixen, waiting on a Vulcan 3, or hoping to grab a Manul target pistol. There’s a lot happening, and if you're coming to the British Shooting Show (BSS) in February, you’ll want to pay close attention.

Factory Custom AGT Vixen Incoming - First Come First Serve!

A big shipment of Vixens is landing in the next few weeks, and we’re hoping they arrive before BSS. If they do, they’ll be up for sale prior to the show, so keep an eye on the website.

What makes this batch special? We’ve convinced AGT to build them with the upgrades you’ve all been asking for:

✅ Metal cage as standard – The go-to upgrade for serious Vixen owners is now fitted at the factory. Not only does this help prevent point-of-impact shifts when shooting off bags, rests, or sticks, but with the right fitment, you can even attach rails to mount bipods. (We’re nudging AGT to look into this for future models!)

✅ Dust bung included – Not something that seemed essential at first, but after a few years, many Vixen owners realised that having an open hole exposed to the elements wasn’t ideal. So, we’ve taken the initiative and included the Uragan 2/3 dust bung, which just so happens to fit perfectly.

For now, pricing stays the same while we push to make this a permanent factory spec. All other Vixen variations remain unchanged—except now, you won’t have to immediately upgrade it yourself!

That just leaves one last thing on our wishlist—an updated shroud. To be clear, the current one works well in FAC, but at sub-12 ft/lbs, it doesn’t quite offer the same level of suppression.

That’s not a flaw—it’s just a result of the system being optimised for higher power levels. Of course, those of us with sub-12 restrictions are the only ones with this issue. (Though let’s be honest, a certain YouTuber’s temporary hearing loss whilst filming didn’t help the perception either...) We’re hoping AGT considers tweaking this for the UK market, but for now, at least you’ve got the other key upgrades straight from the factory.

Restocks: Vulcan 3 & Manul Target Pistol

While the Vixen gets a well-earned spec boost, two other AGT favourites are making a comeback—and they won’t last long:

Vulcan 3 – Still our favourite AGT rifle. Why? Because it’s simple, reliable, high-capacity, and accurate. It’s got Picatinny rails top and bottom, a high-quality shroud that keeps it nice and quiet, and a threaded muzzle for additional suppression. The only thing missing is a QD sling point, but we’ll let that slide—for now.

Manul Target Pistol – This sub-8J PCP air pistol is a dream for .177 target shooters. It’s compact, accurate, and (importantly) actually available in .177—a rarity among international manufacturers. It also includes both a magazine and a single-shot tray, making it ideal for Tetrathlon, 10m comps, and Springskytte (cross-country shooting). Oh, and it’s got iron sights + a Picatinny rail, so you’re covered no matter how you like to shoot without being £2000!.

All of these will be added to the site as soon as they are processed, but if they sell out before BSS, you’ll be looking at a 6-8 week wait. Consider yourself warned.

British Shooting Show: The Return of the Vector Air Shooting Range

Yes, we're back at BSS, and yes, our shooting range will be open again. We know last year’s queue was ridiculously long (it was the longest one there), so if you want to shoot, get there early in the day—because after 12PM, expect a serious wait.

What can you try out?

• The full AGT lineup, including the Uragan 3, Vulcan 3, Vixen & Manul

• A mix of our best-selling UK brands

Speaking of the Uragan 3—we’re almost completely sold out already, and there are zero extras coming in with this batch. If you want one and it’s still in stock on our site, buy it now or be prepared to wait.

A Special Surprise...

We’re doing something special with a very small batch of Guns—but it won’t be on the range. Instead, these will be available at the show, and let’s just say they’re in a style we love. Whether you ever get to see them depends entirely on whether the staff here can resist keeping them for themselves... (We do actually need to sell them, but the temptation is real.)

Final Word – We Want to Hear from You!

That’s the latest on AGT, and February is shaping up to be a big one—not just because of BSS, but also because it’s Karl’s and Luke’s birthdays! 🎉

So, keep an eye on the website for new stock, come see us at BSS (bring patience for the range queue), and if you’re lucky, you might just walk away with one of those special edition Vixens... assuming we let them go.

Now, over to you:
