SELTS090 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Evening all, Really enjoying my new firehawk however i loath better grouping as they arent the best as it stands. Would changing the barrel to a prommy 6.03 barrel and flat hopping it see me with better accuracy, groupings and range? Any other suggestions are appreciated other than changing the gun or scrapping it off. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head Moderator Jedi_Master Posted April 27, 2017 Head Moderator Share Posted April 27, 2017 Some obvious causes for poor grouping would be: inconsistent hold and position when firing, snatching your trigger, incorrect sight picture when looking at the target, your breathing. You do not say whether you are taking single shots or bursts. At what range you are shooting and the spread of the grouping, i.e 10m range with 20cm group. Are you shooting supported or unsupported.

SELTS090 Posted April 28, 2017 Author Share Posted April 28, 2017 i play semi only. pretty good at bracing myself and taking my time but im looking at 30cm groupings at around 15 - 25m ish i think its quite bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters sp00n Posted April 28, 2017 Supporters Share Posted April 28, 2017 I would have thought .28's would have been abit too heavy in such a short barrel. I used to use .25's when I had one. my big gripe with my fire hawk was the slow trigger response, and it was the major reason why I sold it on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SELTS090 Posted April 28, 2017 Author Share Posted April 28, 2017 fair enough. i like it tbh. i have around 250 to get another gun for feild play but dont k ow what to look at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangtight Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I use a CQB M4 with a 170mm barrel in woodland with 0.28g. That hits what you point it at, and from plenty distance What bucking and nub are you using at the moment? The stock G&G bucking is usually pretty good, but if it's got contaminated or worn it might be having trouble lifting the heavier BBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SELTS090 Posted April 28, 2017 Author Share Posted April 28, 2017 ahhh im loving it indoors with my tracer unit. just looking for something outdoors. im using the last of my 28s before trying my 25s. its completely stock as it stands. looking ay trying to get an lmg at the fair sunday or maybe a sniper. no idea as it stands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangtight Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Lmg! I've just started putting together one of these... because 35rps and a 3000 round magazine sounds like fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah you just hang back and wait for the grinding noise as your sector gear goes through your piston. Then love tap you with a single shot and a smug grin.

Beaten to the punchline, Wait until they run out of money (£5 per 3000 BBs) refilling the box mag and then double tap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hangtight Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Snipers are a whole different game, both to get them shooting nice and in the field. But a little fire team with an SAW can either create havoc, or can add an extra dimension to a game. Create a choke point and use the SAW for area denial, then watch the other team have to think their way around the problem rather than just charging through the same gap they do every week.

SELTS090 Posted April 28, 2017 Author Share Posted April 28, 2017 yeah i think ide prefer the support role as i give alot of suppress fire in cqb and where possible. quite like the m60s but heard support weapons are iffy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just started putting together one of these... because 35rps and a 3000 round magazine sounds like fun. Been there down that 40rps+ 5k box mag (manual wind) But I still can't shoot for $hit and look a bigger noob than I am already... but I did make a w@nky HC05 a faster w@nky HC05 https://airsoft-forums.uk/index.php?/topic/25944-gg-fire-hawk-firehawk-hc05-dsg/ Still $hit coz no semi - avoid a HC05 dumb ar$e idea from G&G If you can grab a first edition FH they were Top Tech's and were very snappy at launch Then G&G did a sneaky downgrade to drive chain - probably to help it start pulling the spring Shorter barrels like MP5k's often need a slightly beefier spring to hit 350fps So probably went easier on gearing but sneaky bastids never mentioned this - w@nkers STD FH - run it on more juice as the gearset is lame 22:1 aprox They used a 8 tooth bevel which is why it runs a bit slower than Only one problem - can't fit much of a beefy battery in the damn stock tube though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters Sitting Duck Posted April 28, 2017 Supporters Share Posted April 28, 2017 Nope fixed stubby stock on a few of my guns works out quite well - non adjustable of course but for CQB stuff the gun is usually tucked in tight so works ok But they are getting tricky to find at times That poxy DSG gearbox is coming out one day and will become a normal but snappy FireHawk End of the day, it is the player's performance that wins the game not really the gun's Sure a good gun helps no doubt about it - but so does a players skill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
