Re: Hopup Rubber question

Thats the hup nub, the arm of the hop up unit presses down on this, which then presses down on the hop rubber.

Re: Hopup Rubber question

Richard i could'nt get a firefly rubber so i got a red promo one.

But jesus its tight should i just dump it and get a soft one or can i open it up a little so the bb can go through it.

Thanks

Re: Hopup Rubber question

Its ment to be tight for the bb to go through as this is what holds the bb before the air is pushed behind it, otherwise the bbs will just roll out your barrel

Re: Hopup Rubber question

try a different nub, or a bit of biro pen where the ink is stored, your nub may be too big, i find it happens to me with the madbull nub, even though they also come with the rubber

Re: Hopup Rubber question

cough fireflys in stock cough

the red is way to hard for most applications, ditch that bitch.

what you mean is its physically tight fitting the rubber on the end of the barrerl and tight pushing it into the hop unit, well its meant to be that way the sopmods hop is much tighter for a better seal.

use lube... on the outside of the rubber.. not the inside.

dont mess with that nub its important, wind the hop all the way off if it still wont get through when physically poked with a stick, then its too hard for your application.

the red is RARELY a success.
