Hello,
hoping I will get a reply from FX airguns, I'm gonna ask some questions regarding the availability of FX spares here in Belgium and The Netherlands. Specifically, spare o-rings.
Recently Krale, a Dutch (web)shop, became dealer of FX, which is good news as I recently bought a second hand FX Boss. Obviously a superb gun, I'm really stoked about it! However, after 30 shots it started leaking like hell through the pressure hole under the manometer and was empty in a minute or maybe two. I assume I blew a regulator o-ring; however, in stead of taking it apart to measure the ring and then try to find it and wait for it to be delivered, I'd prefer to buy an 'official' o-ring set (the sizes of these o-rings are not specified on the .pdf files on the FX website).
After a while now it turns out they can't find such o-ring set in the delivery from FX they recently got - they thought it would be there.
No complaints about Krale btw, they are an awesome shop.
Availabilty of FX spares has always been a problem here, and it turns out it's not ideal yet even now. Can nothing be done to improve this situation, please? Looking for hours on the internet for a spare, then if you're lucky to find it, having to wait for a really long time before it's delivered is frustrating, especially in summer when you want to be out there, shooting...
Alternatively, are the sizes of the o-rings in and around the regulator documented somewhere? There's a shop in my neighbourhood where I could definitely find them, dirt cheap even.
Thanks in advance,
Bert
