Ordered Huma Regulator for my FX Crown

Well after putting up with Creep and slow recovery time for over a year in my Crown .25 I finally just went ahead and ordered a Huma Regulator. I did the regulator mod where you double stack the belville washers and it helped some but still not working like it should. My Brocock Bantam HR Sniper has the Huma Regulator and I have had no issues with it whatsoever.

I ordered the 80-150 bar model, I run my FX regulator around 140 so this should be fine, the higher model is for people who add hammer weight and want to go supersonic. My Crown shoots the 34gr JSB @ 870 and that’s plenty fast enough. Hope this Huma works out in my Crown.
 
I'm on the verge on picking one up too.

Its the recovery time that irritates me the most. I've yet to open mine up and check which reg version I have, or try the washer stacking mod though - it's most likely 2nd Gen as my serial number is just below those with the latest regs. Wish there was a database on the FX site where we could just input the serial number and get all the info on our guns.

I guess I'll have to check this weekend and make the order...
 
I ordered specifically for the Crown, I also called FX USA last week to check about upgraded regulator parts for my Crown, gave them the S/N of my gun and they called FX Sweden and I got a call from Summer today at FX in North Carolina. Said my gun is still under warranty for two more years and she is sending out the updated regulator screw and piston at no charge, that should take care of creep.If this works out i'll sell the Huma.
 
bzizzi,

I'm glad fx is up grading the reg under warranty. For what ever reason there was no mention of them up grading my Crown reg, though I did read somewhere that they only went back to October 2017 my Crown dates back to June of same year

I have decide I'm going to install a Huma reg and be done with it. May I ask whom you purchased your Huma reg from? I have called a couple vendors to no avail. Thanks
