New Crown Continuum leaking from transfer port.

It make me wonder if dealers even check guns before shipping I think some of them are too busy to take care of all sales as I would like them to.

That barrel is so hilariously long.

You ain’t kidding, I would need to think twice about the 700mm myself and I don’t mind very long guns. Would need to show a big improvement over the 600mm in order for me to get one lol

Dang is that an 800mm or 900mm barrel? Way too long for my need. I guess some folks like it big and long. Size isnt the most important, it's how you use it.

Without the LDC it’s a nice looking rifle. With the LDC, it is a little crazy. Lol. FX attempting to make the crown into something it was not designed to do. I say leave the slug shooting to the impacts. 

I had an issue with my Continuum. I only shot maybe 30 pellets through it and then it started leaking really bad through the transfer port. At first I thought maybe it was the valve spring might have been stuck. I checked the valve housing and found that my valve seat o'ring was shredded in some places. I'm waiting for the o'rings to come in to fix it. 

I think it was just a bad valve seat o'ring or it got nicked up when it was put in.

Did you use the low TP with max HST ?

It was a constant leak. Something popped, and air just drained from the bottle through the rifle. It was a pretty big leak. Drained the bottle In about a minute or so.

How about calling FX in NC or your dealer I’d be interested in finding out if they are of any help . Doesn’t the new FX products come with a 3 year warranty and if you want to keep the warranty don’t try to do a self repair that could jeopardize the warranty.

Hey Long, 

I was looking through the FX crown master class disassembly youtube video and happen to hear what you're speaking about at about 14:50 on the video. The leaking when it's on low. The continuums have a different setup for changing the transfer port size, but has the same concept of an inner barrel and outer one with o'rings to seal. Send an email to FX USA and let them know what's up, they are pretty responsive and probably will send you some free o'rings to change the ones you have. I got mine back working, and will check tomorrow if I see anything like you seeing when I change mine too low.

I forgot to add that there are two more o'rings on the inner barrel. You can take that inner barrel off by unscrewing the star screw on the opposite side of the action. When you go to put it back in there is a notch at the bottom of the barrel that lines up with the inside of the block.
