FX What the hell ?

Wow, I just dropped some money on a new block since I shot it with the bolt open.. New cocking block came today minus the rubber ball for the front bumper and was assured the rubber ball was there in the new block.. Paid, and a week later cocking block here but no rubber ball !! Oh well...

Out of curiosity, what broke When you shot it? Seems a little extreme that you damaged the block just by firing with he bolt open. Usually a replacement Breech oring is all that’s needed!

PROBABLY just a cocking pin i bet show pictures

Bent the cocking pin under the cocking block where it engages the hammer I thought, but the block looks wallowed where the pin goes..

You're right, it's been a while since I owned one. The older models had a pressed in pin while the newer ones have a screw in replaceable one I believe.

A bit rough cocking, but I think it will smooth out in time..

It should be smooth. Be sure the delrin pucks are in place. A 9

All the pucks are there.. Maybe a bad part ..

I doubt it. Seems like I've run into this before but it's been so long since I worked on one that I can't remember.

Definitely rough cocking.. I took it apart 3 times and the results are the same..

Call FX USA and ask to speak to one of the techs. They can walk you through a check list. I'm sure it's something simple I just can't remember what caused it. Sucks getting old.

Does the side lever cocking pin press in ? I tried to call but no answer.. They send me a new block with everything EXCEPT the pin for the cocking lever..
