Name some common FX Impact problems.

[Chuck-in-Ohio]

The most common problem seems to be people cranking everything beyond the maximum trying to get powder burner power levels from an AIRGUN. ...Then they complain the gun leaks. 

As a point of reference, the new .35 Impact produces 130 fpe. ..about the same as a standard. 22 rimfire and it is specially designed for those power levels, the smaller calibers are not. 

Just saying, be realistic with your expectations, reasonable with your settings and there will be minimal problems. 

Enjoy your Impact - they are a heck of a gun!

In a nutshell

that is the best advice any new Impact owner could read.

Believe it or not there are a FEW!!! who really KNOW what they are doing when they max out their Impacts and do have the knowledge and confidence to repair theirs in a pinch in 15 minutes on the spot out in the field. Charles Bronson is one of them.

Agreed, a FEW.

The rest of us should be aware of what we know and don't know eh?

850 FPS with 34 grain JSBs is enough for me. Shouldn’t be pushing it too much. Seals are easy to find too.

In my experience the third week after I purchased the new mk2 the C4 rod broke, and FX was very good about sending me a replacement. I fixed it myself and I believe that experience was so intrusive that I have no fears of any other problem. That’s just over a year long and no problem since.

I have one of the last Mk I (gen 3). The C3 bumper had to be replaced after 2000 rounds and the linkage block that holds the pellet probe came loose. Impact replaced the bumper with the delving version under warranty and loose block was an easy fix. Love the gun.

I run out of pellets to quickly with the high capacity magazine ...

I didn't get one sooner.
