Supporters Samurai Posted April 27, 2016 Supporters Share Posted April 27, 2016 Building a sniper rifle is not about putting expensive parts into it. Send it to someone who can build it properly. L96 can be almost as good as a VSR, so that's not the problem. Action army hopup unit with AEG barrel and let's say a maple leaf bucking + barrel spacers would have been the good start. Piston, spring guide, spring, zero trigger is the next step. Cylinder is the last one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mos Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Action army hopup unit with AEG barrel and let's say a maple leaf bucking + barrel spacers would have been the good start. And then MANCRAFT SDiK hehe yes, haha, nah you could get a Mancrafted sniper to play aswell as a springer. It is up to preference, and how you want to mess with the gun, either changing springs or slotting in some gas kit. But, I mean, if you were going to upgrade from the start with a stock gun, you wouldn't want to fully upgrade the spring route, then convert it to a mancraft kit. Then I suppose he has kind of got the bits to set him up for a spring route. So my thoughts are, well, invalid. why am I here? lol. #mancraftmasterrace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan2493 Posted April 29, 2016 Author Share Posted April 29, 2016 Just had a look at my advanced spring guide and the flat end/base it not perfectly flat is this a problem ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hef Legend Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 The components are fine, the only outstanding issues I can think of are: New Hop Chamber, stock one is crap and the plastic arms flexes and breaks.New AEG barrel, something high quality in 6.03Decent bucking, something flat hopped would work. Prommy Purple, with prommy tensioner. Clearn and lube.PTFE mod As echoed above, barrel,spacers, bucking and nub are most important. I've built a few L96's and VSR's now, the best ones I've built are the ones where I've spend the extra cash on high quality barrels etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters Samurai Posted May 8, 2016 Supporters Share Posted May 8, 2016 AEG rubber with APS-2 barrel. Won't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan2493 Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 yea found that out the hard way what have I brought wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Samurai Posted May 9, 2016 Supporters Share Posted May 9, 2016 Do you still have the original hopup unit? If yes, then the barrel is fine, you need an APS-2 rubber. Which is not very easy to find. I think Action Army made one a few months ago, and there is the Well (not very good), and there was a Falcon one, also not very good. And that's because the first thing you should do on a sniper rifle is to get a proper hopup unit. Action Army that is, and that will take AEG barrels and rubbers. If you go that way, you need an AEG barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan2493 Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 ok thanks I refurbished my hop unit when I upgraded the spring etc the well hop rubbed didn't last long before it split I brought the action army hop unit do you know what barrel and hop rubber to get?

Supporters Samurai Posted May 9, 2016 Supporters Share Posted May 9, 2016 The AA unit takes AEG barrels and rubbers. If the red Madbul doesn't give you the results you want, try maple leaf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PT247 Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 .... and sir, you have had help. I have even answered your question on where to buy stuff from and given you help as to custom length barrels. We will all happily spend our time helping people out, but only if they give help themselves to an extent.... I don't think expecting someone to have at least tried to google an answer prior to asking simple questions is that much to expect is it?This is what google comes up with if you type in "PDI airsoft barrel": Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
