That was actually pretty funny. I went to grab one of my other gauges and of course none will fit. I had to laugh instead of getting angry.Ching Yong..

Nothing is wrong with that picture. Most of us generally keep around 50b in our work bench. Well, except those 100b guys.

Be careful with using that factory probe. I read something on a UK airgun forum about a guy having his break at the first o-ring while filling. It was probably a freak accident but I'd hate to see someone get hurt because FX rushed things.

If FX isn’t saying anything about the probe, it must be just fine to use it. Forums don’t issue recalls and we can’t expect everyone to be a member of a forum and risk injury if they’re not. I haven’t disconnected from the factory probe with my extension since the gun arrived. If the bearings on the female foster eventually pull through the brass probe and sh#t goes flying………..well let’s just hope they address it before it starts happening to customers. Especially customers who don’t respect HPA.

I already passed anger and getting pissed. It has nothing to do with the issues, it has to do with the radio silence.
Getting secondhand information from Airbuks and Sekhment is truly pathetic.
I can deal with ANY issue. What I can't deal with is indifference towards paying customers.
The good news for me is this whole experience will save me a lot of money in the future. Gotta be positive!

Airbuks does now the social media for FX.
My DRS came with the stainless steel fill probe. No idea where you all bought the DRS, but I would go to the dealer and request there an exchange. Krale in Europe did that, if im not mistaken.

Yes. I should contact Airgun Al and borrow a pair of his rosey glasses. I am thankful my gun shoots great for now. But I think after being a test pilot for new models at least five times now and getting burned, I’m done. Moving forward, when a new gun is released, I’m going to join the sideline gang until all the BS is worked out. With several guns, I found it somewhat acceptable because of how they handled it. This, not so much. I’m actually quite surprised. I wasn’t expecting this when I clicked the buy button. A simple valve replacement issue would be a blessing at this point because I believe if I had a valve issue, there would probably be one at my doorstep in under a week.

Don’t get it as everyone knew well going in what they weren’t getting that is present on the dreamline for pretty much the same money. Guess it’s the trade off for storing the air in a different place 
. I don’t even own one and the offerings piss me off. I mean how about the 3 grand offering that is the same PIA to adjust. Now to me that is blasphemous and FX deserves endless brow beating for it. I guess that chassis is worth it . Is it really ?

Talked to the dude I bought mine from this morning. The reason I didn’t contact him initially is because I have no issue with him. He’s just selling what FX sends him. He’s a great dude and didn’t try sprinkling pixie dust on the two issues I have. These are not isolated issues to just us on the forum. Unfortunately he is as in the dark on resolutions as we are.

That’s because in this hobby a lot of us are idiots with too much money to blow on stupid toys. The guy that scrimps and saves, maybe sells some stuff to buy one of these toys, now that’s the guy who will burst into flames. And I don’t blame him a bit. That’s why when I see guys relentlessly bashing, I don’t judge him or shun him on the forum. I consider what I just said and let him vent. I’m pretty patient and understanding with these guns but eventually I will come unglued.

I read from some one on here about follow threw being hard with this gun
I agree it is but if you don't do it you know caused me to miss a few times where as a heavier gun wouldn't show thats my only problem with it but that's not a bad problem to have

I'm looking at a 600mm 22 in synthetic for hunting and pesting with my new Pard Nightstalker and am concerned with tube ability for the hades and scope height issues since I'm going to get the pic adaptor. To me the comb height isn't enough. Maybe just get a Katran

Just an update on the fill probes. We are to use them until they are unusable or blow apart. Then call for a replacement. FX is not updating the probe. With the M8 gauge, if yours is not accurate, I guess they will keep sending you new ones until you get a good one. I’m going to try one more M8. If it’s not accurate, then it will be onto the next step.

In todays pcp market, I think FX is tap dancing on thin ice. They might find themselves out of a job if they keep burning customers. Your experience has pretty much anchored my decision to never pay money for a new FX.

I learned my lesson with FX years ago concerning two new guns. But I've had negative experiences with other Co's newest pcp's too. Also I'm not very handy with fixing and tuning guns. So I wait a year or so to let the beta testers figure things out before I bite. At least this strategy reduces the "chance" of a melt down in finances, shipping$ - possible stolen, lost, or broken items$, and the gun being gone for who knows how long.
