Others FX USA

[pan60]

wow been reading about the FX US closing.
what has happened is horrible!
what caught may attention is folks that had guns in for service and its looking like they are totaly in the crapper : (
i hope FX Sweden takes care of these folks.

I am in this boat. My rifle delivered on 10/5 to FX USA (not sent back to me). No one in Sweden has any info. No help nor thought to when or if people will get back their $2000 rifle let alone fixed rifles.

in a thread i have been following elsewhere one fellow member just posted today he got his rifle back so let have hope!
i just hope this all works out for the end users buying FX guns.

Oh no that would suck

 

[pan60]

it would be horible!
if it happen to me it would take a LONG time to save for another gun and i would bet money i am not alone

Please remember that, given that legal action is in process, anyone commenting on this topic needs to be very careful what they say. If not, YOU could end-up being sued, too! Mention has already been made in the legal documents about comments made in the Airgun Nation Forum.

So HAM Community Moderators will delete anything that we feel is inappropriate for this reason – for our own good and yours…

Remember the legal process in the USA and most other countries works under the base assumption that any person (or entity) involved in legal action is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law – NOT the court of Social Media, television, airgun forums, our own opinion or anywhere else!

HAM is providing updates on the court case as it's best - in my opinion - to read the court documents, rather than to rely on undocumented hearsay.

Thank you.

I only need my airgun back. Only if this was others concern even one % for others then I would be good. In this absence people should know. I am not the only one with this problem.

Hmm… I’m guessing the Legion no longer exists as a result.

FX USA taught me a very expensive lesson when I was a dealer a few years ago. It was one of the main root causes I am no longer selling airguns. Thanks! I am much wiser and a lot poorer now.

Sorry to hear. I’ve swore I’d never make a penny doing air guns I learned from becoming a motorcycle tech years ago now I don’t even want to look at a motorcycle.

When you have a full inventory of new guns that cost you a fortune to buy into only to have them obsolete the following week by a new line of products, it becomes more than difficult to sell them. Aside from that little continuous problem, when the return rate is well above 30% it starts eating into profit....they don't cover that labor of repair or the shipping cost. Then the problem of getting parts to fix the problems that should have been solved from the factory in the beginning. When you have that much overhead on one product it becomes near impossible to push anything else...this is the truth.

Super risky.

I hope this gets sorted out. I have two Royale that I love and I'd love to have a Crown. They are great guns and hopefully this will all work out for everyone involved.
