Thanks Duck, I appreciate you've taken your time to look through both of my posts and give me a thorough and helpful answer. I'll invest in what you're suggesting and leave the cosmetics til later, my overall plan is to gut it (eventually) inside and out to make my own custom and practically brand new gun, which looks the same but is a lot better in all categories. Thanks again dude!

Hi mate! Thanks for the detailed reply. This was completely seperate to my previous question, as I'm just planning on making a more custom rifle and moving away from stock guns, only for cosmetics. This isn't for definite, but I wanted to know before I did anything, if I did (the hop rubber and inner barrel comes first, dont worry). Thanks again mate!

Just wondering if I'm able to use any receiver for my CM18, as I'm thinking of upgrading it from it's polymer to metal. I've also found a rail system of the same length as the CM18's stock 9.5 inch also in metal with the same brand. Just wondering if I can attach the rail and receiver and still have the stock internals and butt stock fit with the new body? http://uk.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/Accessories_RIS_Systems_SOCOM_Gear_MK18_9_5_Inch_Daniel_Defense_SOPMOD_II_RIS_II_Black.htm http://uk.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/Accessories_Metal_Bodies_Related_Parts_AEG_Madbull_Daniel_Defense_DDM4_Metal_Body_Includes_Ultimate_Hop_Up_Unit.htm These are the two thing's I'm looking to get to upgrade my rifle. Thanks again!

Got those two (inner barrel and hop rubber) in my bookmarks folder, and I'll get them and fit em asap, thanks guys!

Thanks a lot guys, i'll probably invest in those bits in a few days or so - you've all been great helps. If there's any other upgrades you'd all recommend, please let me know as I want to make it as good of a gun as possible. Thanks again!

Do you guys have any specific recommendations of what to purchase? Like product names/brands I can look for? I honestly have 0 knowledge with the internals. Also, are there any videos that can help me through the process as I'm without a job at the moment (only just left school) and can't afford a replacement if I was to screw it up. Cheers so far guys!

It's not quite getting the range and accuracy i'm looking for, also it's hitting just above 340 which is an issue, so ideally I want 340 fps with more range and accuracy? I don't even know if that's possible so that's why I'm coming to the more experienced people. *EDIT - And I mean in comparison to the other players with higher market guns, it doesn't seem to be contending with range and accuracy - I feel outgunned at a larger distance.

I've got a CM18 MOD1 by G&G and have had it a few months and taken it to a few games. I'm already noticing how it underperforms alongside the other players, and even my brothers G&P. The body is polymer and I'm not sure on the internals, but what are your recommendations? Either a new gun or upgrades? Thanks guys.
