Gus707 Posted March 14, 2017 Author Posted March 14, 2017 What gun would you suggest if I were to get a better gun rather than upgrading?
Gus707 Posted March 14, 2017 Author Posted March 14, 2017 Also what type of Spring would the gears be able to ha die without stripping?
Hangtight Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 The gears should be fine with a spring that would take you way over the fps limit. If you want to chase those last few fps up to the site limit first check that you're getting a good air seal in the hop and from the air nozzle to the bucking before you think about changing springs. An easy way to check for air seal in the hop is to turn the gun upside down without a mag in. Balance a small piece of light card over the magazine feed tube on the hop and pull the trigger in semi. If it doesn't move or maybe jumps just a little bit then you've got a good seal. If it leaves the mag well then you know that something needs attention!

Supporters ImTriggerHappy Posted March 14, 2017 Supporters Posted March 14, 2017 Depends on budget. Pretty much anything is an upgrade over a G&G
Gus707 Posted March 14, 2017 Author Posted March 14, 2017 Well I'm pretty keen on getting some form of dmr. Could probably spend about £300
lazybike Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 I have a CM16 Raider, It's 18mths old now, it's had a new (standard) spring and it's s-hopped, it shoots as well as any of my guns and it's still the one that gets used the most, although the Krytac pdw is a very close second, I use a 7.4v 2800ah lipo which lasts all day and it easily hops .3bb's accurately to 50m, it chrono's at 330fps with .2's. If I were you I would do some work on the hop up.. flat, R or S-hop all work well and are inexpensive to do, as others have said put your money into another gun, or just spend it on playing

Could probably spend about £300 Now is a very poor time to look at DMRs. Also, you mentioned UKARA on the other page - that's only for adults sadly. Based on what you've said it sounds like getting to know your gun's limitations (and better ammo) is what is best for you.
Gus707 Posted March 14, 2017 Author Posted March 14, 2017 Oh ok thanks guys, I was only considering a dmr because everyone told me to get a new gun.
Hangtight Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 I looked at putting together a DMR as there's not much off the shelf that you could actually call a DMR, and the shopping list got long really quickly (and expensive). With a bit of hard work and a few choice parts is not that difficult to put together a 350 fps gun that has very nearly the performance with regards to range and accuracy (my local fields restrict DMR to 400fps) and retains the advantage of being able to switch to full auto. Being able to send 20rps out to 60+ metres is a lot more fun!

Gus707 Posted March 14, 2017 Author Posted March 14, 2017 Wow pt247 that krytac was nice, what sort of range could it get?
Guest PT247 Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 I have one, is modded externally but standard internally, shoots (currently at 330fps on 0.2g BBs) very nicely. Is by far the best AEG I have owned.... so much so I sold all my other AEGs as this kicked their butts. Range.... hmmm no idea but I play on a large woodland site and this does the job nicely when I run it as a primary.

I get similar range and accuracy as my raider...My Krytac is using the standard hop up...it is way ahead in terms of materials and build quality though

Need to order one of those G&G tape measures because my one is obviously way out by 15 to 20 metres on average. Even my laser tells me lies because it when I have tested all those 60+ metre AEG's that people own it never measures right. Before anyone actually googles G&G tape measures I am taking the piss because there is probably one in a thousand sub 350 aegs that can accurately shoot those distances but when you go on the forums it becomes 9 out of 10.

Gus707 Posted March 14, 2017 Author Posted March 14, 2017 So many amazing guns, I don't know which one I want most
Gus707 Posted March 14, 2017 Author Posted March 14, 2017 http://www.landwarriorairsoft.com/airsoft-rifles-c38/electric-rifles-c45/nuprol-delta-m4-recon-alpha-tan-p5778 what are your thoughts on this? It says it has a tight bore barrel, a decent hop up and the Spring is easy to change if I want more power. I would also have a lot of money left for external upgrades?
Supporters ImTriggerHappy Posted March 14, 2017 Supporters Posted March 14, 2017 Just now, lazybike said: It is indeed ....still looking good and going strong! Unlike me.. If thats only shooting as well as your Raider then you have f*cked it up. I know this for a fact because I have fired that actual gun and it was one of the early grey imports and was a monster. Hef if you read this why didn't you tell me you were selling it? It could of gone to a good home, I am going to shoot you in both testicles on the 29th now.

Those are honest, measured metres. I even checked it twice because it didn't seem right. 0.28g ammo helps...

I've only fitted a new standard bucking and nub, it chrono's at 347fps with .2's and it is a really good gun...but...my raider shoots equally as good, I know you find this difficult to believe and If we ever play at the same place I'd be happy for you to try it
