    Gg Umg Hop up Upgrade Options?

    @Lozart the selector gear was indeed the issue and it's now corrected and working normal. The .28g and .3g both shot with good flight path with my preference being the .3g, seemed to be tighter grouping and I so for the first time I have the mapel leaf with omega nub working in the gun as it...

    Gg Umg Hop up Upgrade Options?

    I have now ordered some .28g and .3g ammo and see how that goes.  Thanks for the idea on the selector gears and plate will give those a look later, looking at it again i bet your right.

    Gg Umg Hop up Upgrade Options?

    @Lozart piston head replaced and put some effort into lubing the entire gearbox and cylinder while in there. The only way I can get the omega nub to not ping off while installing the inner barrel is to put it on the small 205mm original barrel as you can slide it all in together compared to with...

    Gg Umg Hop up Upgrade Options?

    I will try cleaning the original barrel and giving that another go (after i get new bucking to suit omega nub and piston head). I read up on the cylinder to barrel length so would use original cylinder with original barrel and would get a 3/4 cylinder to better suit the longer madbull. Just read...

    Gg Umg Hop up Upgrade Options?

    Loads of sound advice there thanks, I will leave the spring until after the other work I want to do as you suggest. The g&g umg doesn't have blow back so I'm guessing that means I imagined the cylinder hole (but I can picture it in my mind still) if that's made u assume that? If that's the...

    Gg Umg Hop up Upgrade Options?

    Wow I had no idea I needed to pair with the mapel leaf bucking I will get one and try it, do those buckings work with normal barrels like a madbull? The accuracy went up loads when I put the madbull in over the stock barrel so I'm guessing the barrel is not part of the problem.  The cyclinder...

    Gg Umg Hop up Upgrade Options?

    Tried a G&G green one, now on another brands blue (soft) one and between those and the original didn't notice a flight improvement. I also tried an omega nub but i could only get the bb falling out or jamming, there was no inbetween so gave up and put normal nub back in, another to note was...

    Gg Umg Hop up Upgrade Options?

    That's a shame thanks for the reply. I want to flat hop to get the effective range further out, its currently about 40m with the BB's flight path very much up then down. Using 0.25g bb's on a 'half-gate' size target I have to aim clearly above it.  I was stood next to an G&G ARP9 the other...

    Gg Umg Hop up Upgrade Options?

    Hi Guys, I am interested in swapping out the annoying metal hop up chamber with the slide that shifts as you shoot to a better one but im not sure how universal the aftermarket chambers are so i wonder if anyone knows what will fit or what I need to look out for please?  I want to flat hop the...

    Gg Umg Intermittent Trigger Sticking/Stiff Issue

    update for anyone with a similar issue that finds this thread... from replacing the busings and greasing the gearbox and putting back together again the gun went from 285fps on 0.25g bb's to 334fps on the same bb's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My gun was too hot to play with so I had to purchase a spring to...

    Gg Umg Intermittent Trigger Sticking/Stiff Issue

    Problem fixed. 6 bushings replaced, the remaining 5 were tatty and the shimming was pretty much nonexistent so my probably rookie shimming job should be better than nothing. Greased it up too abit. Gun shoots and sounds nice now. I have spotted a crack forming in the piston so I wonder if it's...

    Gg Umg Intermittent Trigger Sticking/Stiff Issue

    Hi, UMG comes stock with 6mm (oiless) bushings I found out, even the new ones still on sale, my gun is about 6 years old and has fired 10k~ in just the last 6 months alone I quickly calculate from memory. Glad the nozzle position isn't an issue thanks for the info.   I did get the gearbox...

    Gg Umg Intermittent Trigger Sticking/Stiff Issue

    noticed (after taking gearbox further apart, this pic was to help me put everything back in right place) that there is a missing bushing on the gearing behind the trigger as seen in middle of pic. I assume this is the cause of the problem and now have replacement 6mm bushing on order and some...

    Gg Umg Intermittent Trigger Sticking/Stiff Issue

    Thanks for the reply, I dont know anyone with gearbox experience as I'm quite new to the game. I could give it a go myself and follow YouTube, I will have the tools but not sure how much damage I could do with no experience?!
