FX FX King

[Ta-Ta Toothie]

I decided to take the plunge and try out the new Pantha/Dynamic platform in the King configuration. A couple of quick points:

• Right out of the box it had a slow leak that took a bit to solve , that ended up being located at the block plug that seals against a delrin washer. Tightening didn't work so I had to remove the plug and clean the matting surfaces and then reassembled it and now no leak
• The screws for the barrel clamp were missing WTF? Thankfully I was able find screws that fit
• After fixing everything the gun shoots great, and is very accurate and consistent withe the regulator set at 90 bar shooting 18gr pellets
• Adjustment of the coarse adjustment power wheel the gun shoots 17gr NSA at 905fps and is stable
• The GRS stock is top notch . It shoulders well and shoots offhand better than any rifle I own.

So aside from the problems I like it but FX needs to get their quality issues figured out. A consumer that doesn't have the skills to fix PCP air rifle issues will be very discouraged.

I had purchased a King myself and had quality control issues. This is completely unacceptable for the price you pay. FX has monkeys throwing these things together. I made the repairs myself cause I didn't want the hassle of shipping back and forth. This is my 1st and last FX.

It seems to me that's 3 strikes.
It should not have left Sweden like that,
Not passed through the US distributer's inspection
And never been sent by the dealer to the customer.
Considering you are from UTAH @slcrcflyer the issue makes me assume 2 of those 3 strikes may have occurred there.
And jumping to conclusions, makes me hope it's not an indication of Utah Airgun's practices in their new relationship with FX

So how does this shoot @50&100 and what length barrel did you get?

So how does this shoot @50&100 and what length barrel did you get?

It shoots pretty darn well after I went through it. 600mm in .22. 1/4" or less @ 50 and 1/2" to 5/8" @ 100. The POI changed shortly after a tin due to the threaded barrel jam nut came lose. There was many things on this that were lose for the beginning. I would had been better off if they sold these as kits.
