Thank you for this information . You are the man . Just wish I could get my power plenum upgrade ,been trying for 8 months now . Loosing hope , wondering if it is real . Any thoughts ?
.in the past we used mos2 powder to get a dry hd lube at metal to metal parts in a springer gun ,rub it in the metal surface ,maybe its a good idea for the hammer system
the thread at the end of the rod - where it's threaded - broke off inside the part that hits the valve ball under the adjustment, my c3 bumper was completely missing and I guess it hammered it to death. Do you know where I could get these parts so I can start shooting again? :) FX Impact MK1
ernest, help. My power wheel fine adjustment hex screw at the side of the rifle moves while i shoot. I tune it to maximum (at max at the power wheel) and after a few magazines the hex screw has backed out again it seems. I didnt have good lighting for the chrony but accuracy was all over the place at 100 yards today.... i use the tiny hex wrench to set it to a very high setting and after 2 mags it has backed to a lower setting. I fear i have to use some kind of locking nut in the middle of the slider (in front of the power wheel towards the barrel). Is this a normal issue or is there something wrong with my rifle? I bought it used a few weeks ago... the threads seem fine because it is adjusting while i turn the screw. thanks for any input... stay safe.
Ernest Great RU-vid. Question: do you have a RU-vid showing how to get the hammer assembly out of the M3? Also what are the items we need to look for when removing and reinstalling the hammer assembly. I'm currently having ES issues on my M3 .22 700mm barrel. Thanks for your help.
Earnest, this won't void my warranty in any way will it? Utah was already trying to tell me they'd void my warranty if I converted my 35 to any other caliber without sending them the whole gun. Just looking to keep them off my ass. Thanks and awesome work! If anyone knows, please let me know. Thanks!
So how would you polish these parts? Stick them in the lathe, first polish with 2k/3k wet/dry paper and then final treatment with fine polishing compound?
What could cause 1st shot drop on my m3. If I don't shoot for 2 minutes the first shot is normally about 30-40fps velocity slower than stable velocity which is usually about 2-5 fps spread. That first shot is a lot less power. You can even hear it's quieter. 🤔
i found that ballistol tends to get to thicken en gets greasy sticky ,its has also a barrel cleaning purpose .how will it effect o rings ? i,use instead the accid free gumfree sewing machine oil on small moving parts
@@rockyourfaceoff2 if oli contains esters.its tru .car engines depends on rubber seals and oil. No problem there and modern rubbers types are most oil resistent
@@peteralexben i have liquid silicone of different viscosity from RC shock oil bottles. I think I'll use that on everything. It's not aerosols so it contains 0 Petroleum Distillates to mess with anything.
Won’t it self polish over time to a certain degree , say a 1 year old impact should be fully worn in ??, and then give better stability with the FPS, thanks
Ernest Rowe u didn’t understand, I don’t mean a old impact that isn’t working correctly, I mean a good few month old impact would surly polish itself slightly as parts are used, but yea I do know what u mean polishing and wear is different
Hi Ernest, i think you are in the end of the end of the optimisation of the hammerspring system. No lube or polish, Es goes up. Polish + Light lube, Es goes down. Too much Lube Es goes up again.. lol but nice and cool work here
@@chrisfigueroa3361 because it's some details that make small differences.. and after X number of shoot, you will have to do it again (dismount, polish, remount) so globaly it's a improvement but not really reliable.
Ha! Another funny practical joke Ernest! This one is almost as funny as the one about polishing the outside of your barrel liner to get better accuracy! I'm laughing so hard my side hurts just thinking about someone actually doing this! Ha ha ha!
Why is this a joke it doesn't work or what I'm new to pcp airguns I have a fx impact mk2 .. I get the polishing the outside of the barrel that ain't gonna do shit for accuracy or consistency ...I guess what I'm asking is ernest is just doing this for nothing or not nothing it looks clean ....but it doesn't make the air gun better or more consistent ... plz I won't to know ... help me out bro
I think I did a pretty good job cuz mine looks shinier then your ernest jk but it is very shiny hope this works my gun was shooting very good already by doing this hope it shoots better ty buddy bsafe
@@rockyourfaceoff2 the same I didn't see or hear anything different i just know in my head that its shinny lol gun shoot good before and now so no harm done
I do believe all fx products are super fine finished because MADE IN SWEDEN, it’s expensive to settle again your sweet spot you need to harmonize again hahahahaha
