Upgrading guns

[TS_Welshy]

Hi there

Thinking about getting three of my AEGs properly upgraded (bit more than just the simple spring and barrel job), would like to know what parts to get done to improve range, rof and reliability, and will get them all firing at 340-350fps.

What parts should I use and how much will it cost?

Im going to get my M14 Socom, Jg MP5 Navy and my AKS74U done.
And maybe my Tm Deagle :D

Cheers

Re: Upgrading guns

Really its in the wrong section.

If they dont need fixin', dont fix 'em.


ROF, you need higher voltage batteries. But dont use too high ones otherwise it will ruin the gun
Range, get closer to your target
Reliability, dont get ajg:D lol nah, get new bearings and maybe new piston and gears.

Re: Upgrading guns

I'll advise you on the desert eagle because I'm an expert with them

For performance parts, you'd want:

6.03 tightbore barrel (obviously extra accuracy and consistancy)
High flow valve for the magazine (for extra power)
Enhanced recoil spring (so you can fire quicker if you want)
Enhanced hammer springs (for extra gas output)


For cosmetic parts (or part performance):
Guarder metal desert eagle kit (if you can afford the hefty-ass price tag)
Custom grips (I've got hogue rubber grips on mine with finger grooves)
Glow sights

Re: Upgrading guns

My m14 internally is running:
KM Steel Hop Up Screw
Guarder Cut-Off Lever
Prometheus EG Spring Guide
Prometheus Sealing Nozzle
Prometheus POM Piston Head
Prometheus Hard Reversal Stop Latch
Guarder Tappet Plate
Prometheus M14 V7 high speed gears
Prometheus M14 V7 Hard Piston
Prometheus Cylinder
Prometheus Cylinderhead
Guarder hop buckling
Prometheus 6.03mm 500mm tighbore
9.6v 3300 battery

As for Ak got a vfc ak74su with new bushings, piston etc. No TB as of yet but range etc is fine

Re: Upgrading guns

Cool, how much did all that cost Rizzini?

Re: Upgrading guns

Quite a bit mate, Depending on what youre looking for and make. A stock Tm m14 is fine, but i started of by fitting the tightbore. Then the highspeed gears and other parts firing dead on 328 with a great rate of fire. But recently i had a change of heart and converted to semi and upped to 425fps. The gearbox cycles very smoothly and the gun is very quiet.

However if a gun is firng well and the range and accuracy isnt bad, leave it as it is until things go wrong. Unless cash is burning a whole in ya pocket.

Re: Upgrading guns

My advice before any upgrades is ask yourself this: Does it need upgrading?

Is it worth the cost? Ask some of us before you consider the upgrades



For example, I'd say my electroplated silver metal desert eagle slide and frame were nowhere NEAR worth the price I paid for it. The only reason I bought it is because I've wanted one for a year and a bit. It only makes my gun sound metal and look really shiny

Re: Upgrading guns

First thing I upgrade on any gun is a TB barrel and hop bucking combined with a heavier weight bb. I find this combo will has the most profound effect on range and accuracy of most weapons. A good hop up bucking and TB barrel will also net you 10-20fps so bear that in mind if upgrading the spring.

Oh yhea and good luck :P
