Hi hopefully I didn't make a mistake I think the seller is honest but the gun that he's sending me is supposed to be an fx Mark II but when I looked at it in the picture I noticed it didn't say FX Mark II next to the clocking lever. He thinks the earlier versions didn't say Mark II. It looks like yours. Do you agree and are there any differences between the early Mark twos and the later Mark 2 besides the emblem?
I’ve had my FX Mark 2 for six years now I have never had a leak. I’m a gatekeeper. I use my gun all the time night and day. I wouldn’t say I’ll look out very well. I certainly don’t clean it that often. I only clean it when it starts to lose zero I do not understand why you are getting so many leaks, take it to Gun. Stop doing stuff you don’t understand.
Hello, I am looking for information before dismantling everything 😅 on my impact MK2 I noticed a small leak, I located it at the level between the Wheel and the adjuster? what part could this come from? Thanks in advance for the advice.
is you part G the one in side the housing ??
is there a o ring in side the housing that the reg screws in to .
bonjour et surtout merci pour cette très intelligente vidéo je viens acheter cette impact cela va mettre d un précieux guide encore merci un papy de Normandie !
Hello, please could you tell me the voltage of the cables Black, Red and White on the female audio Jacks ? Is the black cable on the audio jacks ground?
These might as well be called the "FX sieve".... because they leak like one!!!!
Yep, tend to agree. You will spend 90 percent carrying out maintenance on it, especially as it ages. You really have to be mechanically minded or willing to learn. Not for the faint-hearted. God help you if you are nowhere near a support source.
👍🏼
I own the tripod model without the trigger system. Before setting out, I preset the legs to the proper shooting height and then walk along using the folded tripod as a walking stick. When I see my target, I simply flip out the pre-set legs and I'm good to go. Under prolonged adverse field conditions, I seen hunters having issues with the trigger system tripod. Keep in mind this comparison is based solely upon the standing position for shooting. When I shoot from a sitting position, I have to readjust the leg height of my tripod.
excellent video, thanks
we Love to see Part 3
Have a leak through barrel on my M3 ?
i wish i could fine the original balaclava they sell one now that’s so orange looking the colour just isn’t the same
Hello, ask a question. fxmk2 high kinetic energy The higher the constant pressure, the lower the speed. What is the reason
A question about my FX Maverick. I am installing Huma regulators. I got both of them installed, and set the 1st reg to 175, and then was trying to set the 2nd reg, and it would not increase the pressure. I then noticed air coming from a pin hole on the opposite side of the reg (left side of gun. Can you tell me what it may be, or what O ring might need to be replaced? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Scott
I don't own a FX Maverick so I can't really help you. But it sounds as if a oring has gone. On the Impact the little hole leads down to the regulator assembly on which there are six orings to replace. Just a guess. If you don't already have them get a hold of the exploded diagrams on your rifle from the net. This is a good start. Also check out for videos on the net regarding working on the Maverick. I'm sure Ernest Rowe had made some. Good luck.
Where are you located. Can You replace O ring s only impact how much $$
I'm in Western Australia. If you're close I'm happy to show you what I've learnt. I wouldn't charge you.
Thanks for showing I dont have an impact mk 2 but i have an m3 or order but i still watched it.
Thanks for watching it. I encourage you to watch the FX Masterclass series videos with Ernest Rowe. I think he has some highly recommended videos on the M3.. Also join the Airgun Nation forum. Heaps of excellent info there. For me the closest help is 2,500 miles away. Thank god for the internet.
Just curious…. It’s been a year since you made this comment- are you glad you bought it or are you regretting it because of leaks?
Nice video buddy
Glad you enjoyed it.
you have 15 washers. in reg only 12. why 15?
No idea. The rifle came with the 15. It's what I found when I opened it up.
@@theferalhunter7269 whats caliber?
@@gigagiga4172 .25 cal
the dual yoke head makes them even better
Have you experienced any interference from the high frequency switching in the DC -DC converter?
None whatsoever.
The lights power up off the battery even though it is dc
Should have made the sticks to your hight while standing.
Good job!
Rifleman Shooting sticks are Gen 3 and much better!
After trying these I just sent my brother one as a gift.
I was about to buy a tripod but this convinced me to look more into the Primos Trigger Stick tripod, which I have ordered.
Hi Mark, you will not regret it. I use mine all the time now. Wouldn’t be without them.
I thought I was going to have to research these different types for at least a couple of hours but you did all the work for me. Thank you sir!
Great idea, my friend works on day birds ?
Great video and great character. My kinda review 5 star
Thanks Steve. I try and give viewers examples and practical ideas. I hunt at night mostly so it has to work.
I was on the fence about the Bog Pod vs Primos. This helped me decide. Now tripod vs shooting sticks is my next dilemma. Primos is pronounced Pre - Moos
Just bought one of these from midway for $100 bucks. Can't wait to use it on the field.
How are you going with it 5 months on? Do they collapse to sitting height? Seemed in the vid you can only use them standing?
Overall I still love it. If I ran over it with my truck, I'd go out and buy another. In fact the new models have a leg locking feature. Might be worth looking into. The one I'm using in the video is the larger 62inch (I think). Not good for sitting. I would look at this one for sitting: www.primos.com/products/trigger-sticks/trigger-stick-gen-3-short-tripod/ So, final summary....no regrets. Still going strong.
Ok great. Yeah the shorter one might suit me better. Did a bit of a google search and found it difficult to find a stockist here in Oz. Will keep searching. Cheers for the review. Very informative.
You finally got the new Drone pro Joe. It's was a long wait. Skip
Yep, man, what a nightmare. Was it worth it?? Time will tell.
The Feral Hunter well was it worth it Joe ? What do you think of the 19X ?
Top of the wazza scope. But, I have to sell it.It's the only one in the world. Beakie74 if you're the man from the Nightvisionforum check your forum emails.
Excellent review, helped me a lot for making a decision. Also the last tripod is pronounced "Primos" say it like "pre-mos". Say moss then take out one s then you have Primos
make longer sticks? ive got a homemade pair that are 1.8M tall when folded and i can comfortably stand or sit with them, just open them wider to make them sit lower...tripods are great but are heavier, sometimes harder to set up depending on terrain and can sometimes be noisy. both types have their place in different scenarios but to say you dont like sticks because they are too short is a bit daft when you made them too short yourself.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Actually at the time the displayed aluminium garden stakes were the tallest available to me. I personally found them annoying. Carrying a 1.8m pair would not be practical for me hunting in bushy areas. They get caught up too easy. After spending money on different tripods I found the Primos lightweight, smooth as silk, quiet as a mouse(I actually hunt rats with this tripod) and one finger application sold me. It's the case of the big "C". Convenience. But, as you said, each has it's different applications.
how do u read that a night m8 can I put up an for how easy it is please
The unit has an illuminated screen so it's really easy to read the numbers. It's just a simple case of pressing the correct buttons. Each rangefinder works in it's own way.
Great vid Joe :) Skip
Jeez! as a vertical mineral application engineer ( plasterer ) lol i have had one for years a bosch one,and thought of this but never got round to doing it. i shall give this a go,but mine has not got a tripod fixing point on it,so will have to figure how to mount it.or just use it by hand.thanks for sharing. regards Davy
+VerminHuntersTV . Here is a suggestion- Epoxy a quarter inch nut to a holder of some sort. The holder can then house your laser distance meter. I'm in the building maintenance game so I had one lying around. Most of the time it sat in my truck. Only used occasionally.
+The Feral Hunter . Great suggestion. Thanks.
verminhunter have u tired this out and if yes does it work gd m8
great review....thanks
