FX FX problems
- Thread starter airgunmike56
- Start date
Wouldn't using a thick CF sleeve over the liner stiffen them up? Is that possible on these guns? I don't own one for reference, but I get the idea of how they're assembled.

Can you describe the POI problems of your impact in detail? The guns you mentioned that had POI issues are not made by FX. What am I missing here?
There is a lot that can go into a POI issue. And it’s not necessary exclusive to Airguns. I have a .22LR that has a cold bore shift. Temperature, velocity change, lube on the projectile, parallax, shooter form and holding your crosshairs canted are just a few off ways your POI can move.
Not say there isn’t a design flaw here. Because I don’t know. I don’t own an impact. I do own a FX Crown MK2 though. Im always slightly skeptical though when I hear someone blame the gun for an issue that could have come from many different variables.

They have a barrel tentioner but i think you have to have a propper barrel theres is not a real barrel its thin crappy metal with a pressed smooth like rifling some crazy crap they came up with

Yeah i glad its working for you because i dont wish anything bad on someone spending that much i just rather have guns with real barrels not some cheap made pressed in rifling thats not propper and real barrel you dont need a tension kit like the fx but i am glad it works for you

You have made your point ad-nauseam … perhaps stop shi**ing on this thread and move on to your next insight.

I think I’ve read a good many Crown owners having issues over the years but definitely far less than the aluminum guns. But my Dreamtac is not a bullpup. It was 100% noodle in the wind like a Crown. On the long weekends of shooting I spoke of, the Edgun and Taipan were pups. Can’t even remember the last time I clicked a scope on them to rezero.

Some guns may be more prone to POI shifts, but if a person knows that going in, they should budget for any necessary fixes. If someone is looking at a 1500 dollar gun that's reported to have an issue and it takes another 150 to fix it, they should be prepared to spend 1650 on the gun. If that puts it out of their budget, they should look for a different gun.

I own 2 M3,s and have access to another 3 of my friends .... so 5 in Total...without a DIY solution they ALL have chronic POI issues !!!
Local Gun dealer/Distributor has many complaints from customers for the exact same issue...

The only problem with the FX Impact is FX should have made it a custom build rifle for 2,000 USD more.
This rifle should be custom built at the same level as a Thomas.
It should be custom built at the same level as a Richard Sachs bicycle.
I own one of the former and 2 of the later and the only trash talk about either are from those who cannot afford to own one, which means their opinions are irrelevant.
