Identical experiences then. Does imply nub problem. I'm looking forward to the FOW arriving then.

Thought I'd sorted this but struck down at the start of the day, been chrono'ing fine, getting 2.2J but then when I tried to hop BB's (don't have a field to set up before hand). Either they were falling desperately short or jamming completely.
Combination was the SBA 60 rubber along with the Tigra nub.
So.....
Will strip it and wait for RHop stuff to arrive and use the FOW nub
and.....
Ordered a G-Spec kit and extra FAST unit to use with a spare barrel I have to build up as a "hot swap" using the included SBA bucking and nub.
Will likely order a PDI 6.05 in time for it but meh, that'll be once the credit card is cleared (again).

Quick share, GSPEC mode activated.
Using a new FAST hop with SBA 60 flat hop and a ZCI 380mm stainless @ak2m4 barrel, it does protrude into the suppressor a bit but wow does it feel more agile.

Edit:
Cancelled that order, had a change of heart.
SBA fast hop chamber, FOW nub, 60 RHop and 100% Chamber seal.
Instead of a barrel, piston and silencer I’m going to get my boy some kit for his birthday.
Any of you guys able to play despite the plague? I’ma say screw it and gonna play on the 12th ?

Went for a .338 initially as it was only one in stock.
I've now bought another .338 for my gspec outer as the length is useful as the inner protrudes into it a bit.
Build has changed a bit from the above also. Now running PDI 6.05/380mm with faceless Rhop, FOW and 100% seal and have a Rapax 3J on order to use with long airbrake.

Nice ?
I’d be interested to know if you have to cut a couple of coils off the 3j rapax to get the req j’s

I'm hoping not to. Not gone for a tight barrel and hoping the long airbrake will take a good chunk off. I'm finding the 2J just isn't enough for what I want, if I ran without air brake it would likely be ok.
Can lose weight off piston as well.

You seen much change in performance shrinking down to the g spec?
Just got all the parts to do it myself, thinking of using it with back pack sling as a secondary with an aeg.

Had 1 trip out with it and it didn't shoot any different but was significantly easier to move around.
Hoping the better barrel and Rhop paired with better airbrake, spring and spacers will get it shooting a smidge better as well (once lockdown ends)

I've got a lambda 6.05 and faceless r hop and rubber combo going in. Hoping for decent results. You set on PDI?

Already got the PDI and faceless stuff ready to go. Just waiting on a V3 mouse fart (on its way now) and pom spacer rings.
In 2 mind of Rhop or SBA 70 flat hop.

General question for owners; I'm seeing a lot of upgrade discussion on this thread. If I just bought this RIF and played with it with no intention of upgrading anything, would I have a good time?

Yes
Honestly get a 2j rapax spring, were talking a few quid, or any m150 spring which are cheaper than the rapax but toughen the bolt pull. The rapax is the way forward tbh. Any m150 spring will get you up to max or near as dam it FPS.
Stock you can take 70m clean. With a rapax you're taking 95m kills.
Tldr; like I said , yes

Yes but as above, this is a sniper so need an FPS advantage so bigger spring is a must.

SRS is in bits at the moment but installed the V3 mouse fart today. It really is a work of art. I ordered the version with pom guide rings as well.
Just dropping it into the cylinder it seals!
Getting a rapax 3J in a few days so will rebuild and report back.

Thanks; decided to preorder the A2 Sport, here's hoping it's as good as the A1 apparently was! Slightly concerned the stock spring guide is nylon but it's a cheap part to replace if it goes bang.
PS lol

The A2 will be every bit as good, from what I've read it's mostly a cosmetic upgrade and making some parts more easy to attain after purchase. Internally they are the same for the essential stuff.
The mouse fart is a lol but the V2 performs well and I can't wait to try the V3, when (not if) you go variable weight piston, a VMP with mf is worth a look at as well as the wasp and edgi.
I only went mf as I'd already bought the VMP.
