FX Maverick Compact 25 Cal. Overview and Cranberry Carnage!

[@leftymadrid]

I've been into air guns for many years, this set up is my most sought out set up! FX is nailing it lately, just a perfect set up there. Good for soooo many types pesting/hunting! Excellent !!

[@adamamirul1249]

I really love pcp gun but my country does not allow me to have one. So every night before sleep i always watch air gun vids . I really hope one day i can get one . 🙃

Thanks brother. Iam considering this, or the Impact Compact as my next purchase. 👍💯

[@donaldlundy345]

Great shooting Chris and that gun rocks

[@marcegrecco53]

It’s a really nice FX air rifle. I have an Impact MK II, which is very accurate. The Maverick seems really accurate from all he videos I’ve watched. Next year I’ll get one. Meanwhile I’ll just watch everyones videos.

[@lrn5755]

The fact that FX comes up with these innovations without utilizing the use of batteries/dc power makes it a desirable/preferable item for all air gunner enthusiasts...to throw their $$$$ for one....👍

[@allanwind295]

Marketing 101.

[@UpNorthAirGunner]

@@allanwind295 Hmmmm.... So are you saying dual regulators and larger plenum space is just a marketing ploy?

[@allanwind295]

​@@UpNorthAirGunner It wasn't actually meant as a diss. FX is good at marketing compared to the rest of the airgun industry. Innovation is great, but for me it's important to separate technical improvements that benefit the shooter from marketing. So what I am saying, or rather asking, what actually matters in practice? If I was in the market for this vs the Impact (FX is positioning it as a new platform like the Impact), I would want to know if they reduced the number of o-rings compared to the Impact (which is notorious for having a lot and hence higher risks of leaking over time). (a) The marketing claim for dual regulators was that they are more durable and more consistent. I have owned a Taipan Veteran for a little over a year, and I have no issues with the single regulator on either point. FX had problems with reliability of the pre-AMP regulators, and I don't pay enough attention if the shifting POI for the first shot is an issue with the pre-AMP or the AMP regulators. This is what I read on forums, btw, and FX is selling a lot of guns so there will be more issues reported. I haven't seen any chronograph data to support the consistency claim, but I am sure someone will measure and publish it soon. As long as regulator is reliable, however, the only thing that matters after that is consistent of your groups. The groups you demonstrated were good, but we need larger groups and comparable data (i.e. ideally same shooter and ideal conditions) to tell if it's an improvement. My claim, and I could be wrong, is that the gun is about as accurate as what you get from Air Arms, Brocock/Daystate, existing FX, or RAW. (b) "Larger plenum" affords you two benefits more power if you shoot heavy slugs, or more efficiency at lower power particular for pellets. _I_ don't know if larger is always better. I don't shoot slugs, but improved efficiency is always welcomed to me. No data was provided to show that it it's better than, say, the Impact or Wildcat. This is not necessarily a critique of you Chris, but that's the data I would want to look at. Matt covers some of this in kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnymZ2eap6hjn7c

[@drummerdavemax]

Only reason I wouldn't want this gun is the 2 regulators! ...I just got a WildCat MKIII from Utah Airguns & the AMP regulator took a crap after 2 weeks! I replaced it with a Huma & it's shooting great now, but I wouldn't want to replace 2 of them!!! Thanks for the video & I enjoyed the shooting a lot! Peace!

[@ronaldwalters4507]

Love your channel, Try this, 5 cranberries 25 yards, off hand, no bipod HINT; use low power on your scope, makes it easier. Its harder than you think. good luck.

[@allanwind295]

FX had issue with the regulators with the first shot being off according to the forums. Maybe this addresses that issue? This video didn't provide any data to substantiate the marketing slide at 8:20.

[@Johnnywoo7]

Hi Sir. Excellent review, I love the simplicity of tuning the Maverick . I have a mk1 Crown in 25 high power (Fac) in the UK. The guns lovely to shoot and I get around 80/90 shots @894 FPS for 25.4g JSB. I like the look of the Maverick in the compact version, it’s shorter than my Crown, easier handling and having a big enough shot count for what I need. After watching your review I think my mind is made up 👍 Crown for sale. Thanks good stuff. 🇬🇧

[@mburke1211]

Great video. I was really pleased with my WC MKIII until I saw this Maverick. I see you’re using the Air Venturi on 12V there - I love mine. Just hope it holds up. Thanks for the excellent review.

nice job Chris! better than the impact? was considering a 30 compact .....

[@fanis4809]

I really have to say some words.First grate gun great shooting great shooter and videos Second, unless there is a build in lever in the scope I recommend always have one over the scope and before shots ensure that u are always levered maybe some of these flyers are from tilted position according the others. third, for a gun with double regulator with what ever this means in service and cost and possible bigger chances to malfunctions, I would expecting pellet on pellet nothing less.Fx must stop making the same gun at a point presenting it as a new gun all over net.Enough with those bullpubs airguns all companies abandoned really fashion good airguns I own Fx I like them Keep going sir

[@JohnVanderMyde]

I wish FX had a gun that would allow the scope to be mounted much closer to the barrel to allow less hold over for close range shots. Even the Crown demands high mounts to clear the magazine.

Parabéns pela performance no tiro ao alvo

[@heathhalfhill6867]

Yeah...cranberry jell is soooo freaking nasty. Some people love it but yeah...makes a great target too. Love the technology behind the dual regulator. Wonder if that means we can fill the gun to 300 Bar and get more shots?

[@UpNorthAirGunner]

The max fill pressure is still 250 bar, but this technology though could be applied to a 300 bar set up if the first reg is rated for that pressure. But just a thought and nothing official from FX.

[@fredA1234]

I’m trying to decide between the Mavericks and the impact. Do you think for the Extra 3 hundred dollars it’s worth getting the impact. Or in your opinion, do you think the Maverick is a better rifle? Thanks for the great video. Fred

[@leftymadrid]

Heck cranberry sauce/jelly is crazy good, love the stuff!!! Lol

[@Liam-ql7tr]

if two regulators and two air gauges how do know how filled your tank is? A third gauge is needed...

[@UpNorthAirGunner]

Nope. The first gauge is for the tank. The second is foe the second regulator before the plenum. You don’t need to know the pressure really of the first regulator other than it’s between your fill pressure and regulated shooting pressure.

[@Liam-ql7tr]

@@UpNorthAirGunner hmmmm... well it obviously it works but for fine tuning 3rd one seems to be a good idea. Thanks for vid!

Nice review and shooting Chris. I like the looks of this shooter and it appears to be high performance as well as high tech for the average guy. Price point seems awesome to the point that a guys may wait 2 frikin years for one.....LOL. Will this platform spit the velocities that an Impact will?

[@UpNorthAirGunner]

From out early testing and the data FX is giving us, it looks to be as powerful as an Impact in stock form, but I have a theory this platform has even MORE room to grow with heavier slugs and liners to be able to push that larger ammo.

What issues are you having with your single regulator?

[@airgunsonmymind2989]

I set it at 140 but it keeps going up at 160 just when the battle air passion is beyond 180 bar.

[@UpNorthAirGunner]

airguns in my mind Sounds like you’re getting regulator creep for sure. Try to switch to the HUMA regulator.

Yes ,I thinks so too... regulator creep. Actually I had a spear huma regulator and I just installed it yesterday but I haven't tried it yet.

Maybe the larger plenum and new valving?

[@hawssie1]

One thing I don't understand is why the are max fill pressures still relatively low for todays compressors and carbon fiber fill tanks? Why not make it 300 bar instead of 250? Wouldn't that give more shots before having to add air? All with the same size bottle? Kinda like free extra shots. Especially on this gun with dual regulators and high air requirements. I mean nobody says you have to put int 300, you can still put in 250 if that's your thing. Seems frustratingly obvious to me. I bet if the PCP Industry stays unregulated (no pun intended) you will see increasingly higher output compressors and tank ratings maybe up to 10,000 psi. Hydraulics commonly go up to that pressure already in jacks and presses. etc.

[@UpNorthAirGunner]

This tank is only rated for 250 bar. With this dual regulators it would be an advantage to be able to hold back 300 bar for sure to avoid reg creep.
