First Rifle Fx-9, WK180C, RDB

[BitboyBen]

Hi guys,
I'll just get into it.
I'm looking for some advice on which of these Rifles would be good for a first rifle.
Fx-9, WK180C, RDB

I am hoping for a good range and out back plinker, target and 3 gun or Tac.
I do have RPAL.

I do like the GSG-15 buuut... funds are limited as they always are, and i'd like to get something that will scratch my itch plus have room to grow.

I basically played too many video games so this is the kind of thing I'd like to shoot with at a range.
I'm not much of a hunter but as I get out shooting more I figure I'll meet some good mentors.

Thanks for your time.

Also PS:
Where/How the heck can I buy one of these?
They're always showing OUT OF STOCK!!!

I have an FX9 and bought it to have an AR style non res plinker. with cheap ammo it is surprisingly accurate. Its a cheap gun but a lot of fun. A bit picky about ammo but with the right ammo runs well.

always out of stock and like everything here hard to get.

All three are a fine choice I have an fx9 and love it Ar style plinker very cheap to shoot if you can get tenda bulk sales on 9mm it’s like 23-25 cents per round bullseye has 19 of them in stock free ship so if your inclined to get one. If you do decide to get this get a few 33rd sticks they look great in it but on the off hand I would get some of those ets clear see through mags for the fx9.

I’d take the wk over the rdb just cuz I’m one of those guys who prefer something metal over polymer plastic but both are probably better for three gun 223 will reach much further than 9mm still reliable fun plinker. Canadian made, kodiak has done a great job and I’m sure after market will follow seeing how popular it already is and I’m sure it will be further developed.

Rdb is still a good choice much more compact being bullpup and lighter much more ambi friendly cool bottom eject I’d get the version with a pistol grip tho.

Is it a certain weight of ammo, brand or something else?

Roger all that! I guess I should have mentioned I am left eye dominant but right handed. Is that a show stopper for any of these? Imo, no, but maybe a bit slow on the reloading in competition. I wasn't expecting any trophies, just fun.

I have not figured it out ... it works with some brand 115 gr but not with blazer brass 115 but it works with blazer brass 124 .

I think it is for once the recoil has to be strong enough and bullet length may play a role

As per break in any 115 and 124 will be fine stay away from any aluminum cased as they will literally be ripped apart and smashed.
You’ll see a few FTE or doubles but after like 200rd+ iv had no issues whatsoever I’m guessing it’s the stiff spring needed to be compressed a few times. If I had the choice to buy it again I would lots of fun at the range.

Odd mine will run 115 blazer, federal and Winchester was it during the first 200rds?

no it has more than that. It could be small differences in bolt or spring but sucks
