Gbls das Gdr 15 Skirmish Review

Is the barrel support still in one piece? The older ones can crack, pushing the inner forward and preventing a good airseal. A few people sell uprated ones.

When I had it apart it seemed to be in one peice. I decided to install a new spring, M110. Which has brought the fps back up. Firing 250 now on 0.30g but I feel like its masking the issue? I'll take a look at the mount. May also order the nozzle tool to double check its not that
 
Yeah something isn't right. I have an M100 in mine with one spacer. Does 1.1j with a 0.32g BB.
 
The nozzle can come loose and needs tightening with a special tool. Mine had dropped and tightening the nozzle sorted it.
 
An update on the fps issues. Barrel holder was fine. Got the nozzle tool, the nozzle was slightly loose but it was still achieving a good seal, didn't make a difference was still shooting 250fps with 0.30g bbs with a m110 spring. Decided to strip the BCG, turns out it just needed a really good clean around the piston and o-ring. The amount of grease must have been slowing down piston travel. Getting 314fps on 0.30g, 1.37j with m110 spring.

I decided to pickup a 4UAD chamber too based on what @Chev Chelios said. Fits very snug, centering post needs filing, also dont need the locking screws on the chamber holder. I was dropping this in and out at the time of the above fps issues, so unsure on performance. But the below is what ive found so far.

4uad chamber
unicorn 285mm 6.03 inner barrel (8139)
Unicorn bucking
M110 spring
Hop on
255.8 fps, 0.30g, 0.91j
Good range (some fliers, bedding in?)
Not perfect compression, leak from bucking to nozzle potentially

Original chamber
275mm 6.04 inner barrel (7879)
Original bucking
M110 spring
Hop on
314.1 fps, 0.30g, 1.37j (too high)
Range tbc
Good compression, no obvious leaks

4uad chamber
unicorn 285mm 6.03 inner barrel
4uad bucking
M110 spring
No hop setting
273 fps, 0.30g, 0.91j
Range tbc
Good airseal, good compression, no obvious leaks

I only managed to use the 4UAD with the Unicorn bucking at any kind of range. It seemed pretty good but hard to say if its better, would need to drop the original setup back in and compare now I've resolved fps issues.

Glad to hear you found the issue. Still not had a chance to shoot mine or set the hop. Mine gained FPS swapping the unit over. I do have a steel outer barrel meant for GHKs on it. Will have to swap some stuff around and compare the results. The thing I like about the 4UAD is the ease of adjustment and no crushed BB dust compacted in the adjustment grub screw. Thanks for the update.
