Random Guy Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Not looking to drop money on an AA hop unit at the moment for my old vsr10, it's completely stock at the moment and just thought might as well upgrade it since I can’t use it yet anyway. What would increase consistency in this sniper rifle (besides barrels and buckings). I'm just not knowledgeable on sniper hop units, and was wandering how to get good consistency without buying a whole new hop unit. If I have to, I have to, but ideally I don’t want to. I guess this question also applies to how to get good air seal. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panama Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Have you read this excellent thread which has lots of useful information and discussions in it? I have followed this and used a lot of the recommendations etc for upgrading my new T10. Definitely worth a read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be piston head, cylinder head, nozzle not mating correctly, bucking to barrel needing sealing, bucking itself. I would start by PTFE'ing bucking to barrel. If it's stock VSR parts, drill the pin out on the cylinder to head, unscrew it, inspect your piston, rebuild with PTFE on threads of cylinder head. Forum must be broken at the moment though as it allowed both the words sniper and cheap in the same sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skara Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Need some information first. What brand? Have you done the usual cylinder air seal test? Are you 100% sure it's a nozzle to rubber issue? Air seal wise, please don't PTFE any o-ring, please use proper silicone-based lubricants. Do it right, do it once. If you want a cost effective way to improve your hop, just install a gunsmithy TDC (buy the one with the hop arm). No real need to buy the AA chamber. Also, if it's a stock gun I suspect it still has a 45° trigger and piston. They may be fine for 1J guns, but once you up the power you'll wear the sears crazy fast, to the point they won't engage anymore and slam fire. I suggest investing in a 90° set, either Springer Custom or one of the other Zero Trigger offerings (airsoftpro being the cheapest one methinks, SCW or Laylax if you want the swag) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
