Received Fx barrel kit without moderator

[bubbag]

Anyone else experience this?

I contacted the vendor via email, and he got right back to me... his response was "The kits they sent me did not include any moderator."

I think this is unacceptable at the price point, so i responded by asking if barrel kits have come with moderators in the past, and if so did he ever contact fx to see if it was in error...

Been well over 15 hours, and still no response...

Have you inquired with FX regarding this matter?

No, but i plan on it today...

Just trying to see if anyone else has received the same.

What did their listing say? Does their product description list a moderator? Some places do list them as included and some don’t, actually seems like most don’t.

 

[Blackpaw]

Yes, as said above. Just because it is pictured doesn’t me it is included.

let us know what fx has to say...thanks

Same thing happened to me, but fortunately, my dealer made good on it at his own expense. The moderator that is supposed to come with it is the standard FX empty can which is a piece of junk. It does do the job of silencing to a large degree, but has an adverse affect on accuracty. I replaced it with a Donny, then it was perfect. I agree that FX's price on barrel kits are way out of line.

I believe they are sold both ways. I see listings that state "does not include magazine", and some that include, "does not include magazine and moderator". Like most things FX, next week may be different.

Depends on which greedy vendor you purchase from!

Greedy dealer or cheap buyer? I found out to read all the description. Order a few items from China, boy good price and looked good, but what looked like 2" 4 foot pipe ended up being a 1/4" 6" pipe on arrival. Went back and read the discrimination completely and got exactly what I ordered. I'm learning to read again.

Hi

The truth is that a complete kit for changing the cal. in Fx is not affordable, it is out of place, it is more profitable to buy a new dreamline

Lets say i order a 700 mm kit for my 600mm gun, what i will expect ?

Maybe state specific? Same as country specific would be...

In example the Canadian FX shroud is not vented inside tube and even just thinking about moderators or LDC's is a big no-no. But attaching the air stripper outside of barrel/shroud is allowed.

I’ve purchased three kits from three different vendors and in each case the LDC was an added $50 option for the made for FX, Donny FL moderator.

Doesnt matter what the description was...

If you go to the fx website, and look up schematics, and parts list of a caliber change barrel kit it includes the moderator, and fx ships them to their distributors with moderators so if you get a barrel kit without the moderator you are not receiving what you paid for...

The drawings I find on the FX site show a shroud, but no moderator. But, I have seen the actual kits listed with and without moderators, can't remember the price difference, maybe $100. The kits on the SPAW site specifically include moderator, $429.
