Aside from the gauges and regulators that you guys take issue with, how did/do your FX rifles shoot?
I never had the Streamline on the range to shoot groups, but the Wildcat, Crown and ImpactX I had on the range all did 1moa or better at 100 yds.
The WC had a Huma reg, the Crown and Impact have AMP regs. All three gave single-digit ES shot strings.
Just to put things into perspective.
I got your point, and YES they shoot VERY good! But while shooting VERY good, and you need to put some transparant tape over the gauges isn’normal i would say. I also own a medium budget gun,, not sonaccurate, but more power. AND warranty! The warranty case isn’t over yet for me personally! I treat it like a baby, clean it, even do I didn’t shoot it.And i needed to pay for 2 stuck gauges & parts and labor for internal air leaks. This, from new to 6 months old.
i wrote about this to FX Sweden, but no answer! I guess my name triggers an alarm in the factory.
And i was truly sure to buy the impact mkII Sniper version, cal 30. If you put your savings into a Porsche, and 1 month later the window falls out, and you need to pay it.....than a few water leaks (also needed to pay) and after that you see a commercial of Porsche themself, claiming that “my”( and thousands of others) have junk parts on their cars, that needed to be replaced by better types! They are decent enough, and wanna hold the brand up high.......the do a recall!!
On the Crown, 3 different regulators in a few months time! They launch the AMP like its the solution to it all! No, it isn’t! A small company like HUMA , are capable to make the Crown & impact PERFECT! BUT @ your own cost! Again +€100 !!
OTher brands have problems too.
But they don’t spit in my face, saying my gauges are crap! (+ the AMP destroyer) This is MY PERSONAL experience with FX Airguns. Others might be lucky with theirs. The youtubers that praise the brand to heaven, like the SA guy, all get their stuff for free from FX.
JMHO.
