So im much more of a repairer than an upgrader and my vfc m16 has been rather inconsistent with maybe half the shots going lovely and straight and the others kicking up or down quite heavily. Ive tried various different hop rubbers and setups with the only part ive not changed out being the inner barrel. I tried to swap it for a zci 409mm tightbore but the company sent me an aeg barrel by mistake and now I cant find the longer zci barrels in stock anywhere.  That would normally be my go to so any recommendations? For a full length m16 I should be able to manage up to a 440mm barrel. 

 
You can always donate it to me ?

Not a VFC, but I went with a 470mm Maple Leaf hybrid inner for my WE A1 and it's performed really well paired with the unicorn bucking!

 
I'm not familiar with the internals, but I'm assuming they take unbridged GBB barrels? If so, the Stalker barrels are really good and do all manner of lengths, but they're also pretty pricey.

The vfc stuff does use standard gbb barrels but im more looking for something that works right now rather than a top of the line upgrade. The site I go to is 90% dense woodland so I have never needed the best of the best XD appreciate the suggestion though. I probably should have put a budget on the post

Perhaps check out the 4UAS review of it on YT?  They mention some of the same issues and how they rectified them.  Explosive Enterprises are also good as is the Heavy Recoil Club Discord.
