Jake117 Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Well, I was taking my barrel out of the hop and as I removed it a little ring came out in two pieces. Before I carry on I would like to know what I have done as I'm probably going to have to replace it. It wasnt the tiny ring but it was pretty small.
Jake117 Posted October 9, 2011 Author Posted October 9, 2011 Here, going to have to post again for the other photo's, sorry. . .
Supporters Liam Porter Posted October 9, 2011 Supporters Posted October 9, 2011 I think the little ring's off the barrel, I've got all the parts to my stock hop here, but got rid of the barrel. Which upgrade parts have you bought, as you may not need it when you put them in.
Jake117 Posted October 9, 2011 Author Posted October 9, 2011 So far I've got the blue madbull hop rubber (I'll message you once I've used it saying how well blue does), the hop bucking off airsoft sniper uk, madbull 6.03 barrel and the metal trigger box you recommended. Once airsoft sniper uk get the l96 hop chambers back in I'll end up buying that, cylinder and nozzle.
Supporters Liam Porter Posted October 9, 2011 Supporters Posted October 9, 2011 Okay, I don't think the barrel will fit the stock hop-unit. I'll just check with an AEG barrel. They're at the AAF, and due a large shipment of all items in a few days I think, he posted on Facebook.
Supporters Liam Porter Posted October 9, 2011 Supporters Posted October 9, 2011 Do the stock parts go back together without the broken ring?
Jake117 Posted October 9, 2011 Author Posted October 9, 2011 I havnt tryed yet as I was in a rush. I'll give it a go in a couple of hours
Supporters Liam Porter Posted October 9, 2011 Supporters Posted October 9, 2011 Okay. If it doesn't, then try super gluing the black ring back on the barrel, that should hold until you get a new hop chamber.
Jake117 Posted October 10, 2011 Author Posted October 10, 2011 Just ordered the upgraded hop chamber from ASPUK. I wont need that little plastic ring for it will I? Also it says I need that I need the "Pot metal ring". Is that the ring that goes around the hop lever or the tiny metal ring in the picture(s)? Thanks
Supporters Liam Porter Posted October 10, 2011 Supporters Posted October 10, 2011 No, you won't need the ring, you'll need an AEG barrel, AEG rubber & nub, and yeah, the ring which goes around the edge, all of which you have. The ring was a tight fit on mine, but a bit of force soon sorted that, it just means it's slightly harder to adjust, but holds its position better. To hold the barrel in the hop unit securely, there are three very small Allen screws in the unit (one each side and one at the bottom) on the thinner part, tighten these. When you put the gun back together and put the mag release/catch back on, make sure the screw goes into the hop-unit straight or you'll damage the threads in the unit and the catch will be wobbly. If you need any help, just ask, I'll try my best .
Jake117 Posted October 10, 2011 Author Posted October 10, 2011 Sweet, got the aeg barrel, rubber, bucking ect. Just waiting for the new hop now OH and I bought a new bucking but have no idea how to install it Anyway thanks for all the help
Supporters Liam Porter Posted October 10, 2011 Supporters Posted October 10, 2011 The bucking just slides over the end of the barrel. There should be a small groove the barrel and a matching part on the inside of the rubber, align these up . Make sure you put the barrel in the hop up straight and the right way up though, or you won't very much accurately
dazz Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Sounds like a project, feedback when it's complete and tell us how the rifle performs!!!
RR01 Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Just to add to what Liam said, the barrel needs to go into the hop unit with the long groove (at the back) in the 6 o'clock position, so that the cut-out for the hop pad is at the top, where the hop nub can press on it. Also make sure it is exactly in line, otherwise your BB's will not shoot out straight, however much you adjust the hop.
