ok, probably n00bish question but

[ste887]

how does the spring upgrade service work?
do i post it to them? drop it off? or do they collect it?
i was asking cos a spr i just got wouldent reach out past 10M. after a barrel and hop clean.
my friend has left it under the bed for 2 years after the battery died and forgot about it. so the spring was probably still compressed

Re: ok, probably n00bish question but

Read it properly.

They'll have it picked up and posted back.


And I doubt it's the spring if your SPR won't fire past 10 meters.

Re: ok, probably n00bish question but

also it only dented a can from 2 inches with a .2 so its about 250 fps

Re: ok, probably n00bish question but

Lol, you don't know that fom shooting a can!

Get an accurate reading. Don't rely on those silly guides.

my dad refuses to take me to a skirmish unless he can join in

Re: ok, probably n00bish question but

then let him join in ! , there could be so many reasons why the range is crap , what did you clean your hop with ?

[ste887]

Re: ok, probably n00bish question but

i do let him join in but he wont take me to shoot through a small blue box with numbers on it
and i cleand it with a tissue. but it was shooting worse before.

Re: ok, probably n00bish question but

Argh Tissue "NOES"!!. You shouldn't do that. As microfibres will stick to the barrel. Use a non fraying cloth.

Re: ok, probably n00bish question but

*facepalms*
ok but it was shooting practicality the same before

Re: ok, probably n00bish question but

You could have a broken hop chamber which therefore releases all the compressed air. If your confident enough take the barrel and chamber out and see if theres any cracks/splits

[ste887]

Re: ok, probably n00bish question but

ok that will be next weekends project.
failing that any idea how much z1 will charge for a spring upgrade, new hop chamber and new barrel?

Re: ok, probably n00bish question but

£45 for the change and there is extra costs if you want it picked up and re-delivered.

Re: ok, probably n00bish question but

Your best bet is to have a more experienced player take the top off and inspect the hop unit!

It may just need a clean, and a new rubber and bucking. Which would save you about 50gbp!

Re: ok, probably n00bish question but

I'd not send it in for a that, probably not your problem!

See a expert on site, probably get it fixed for free, and much quicker!
