i have a m82 hurricane currently set up using the m4/m16 AEG base, but im thinking of converting or trying to GAS. is this even possible?

Re: Hurricane M82 conv kit

Should be possible with either a P* or G&G GBB drop in box.

Re: Hurricane M82 conv kit

are the polar star and G&G ones good?

also are their any GBB m4/16 vietnam gas mags?

Re: Hurricane M82 conv kit

P* are very good. The require an external gas tank and don't blowback but rof and fps can be adjusted very easily. Also they take AEG mags. G&G have some recoil but take special 30 round mags. Tbh with the weight of the hurricane kit you'll be lucky to feel any recoil unles you go for a custom instal based on an escort system.

Could always sell it and buy the gbb VFC one.

Re: Hurricane M82 conv kit

dont think i'd want to carry a tank around with me.

im not after recoil, just want to get the better performance. though i have been told to stick to AEG. well i messaged m.thumbwood about his VFC m82 and he doesnt want to reply.

with hop's and airseals whats best? how do i improve the seal?

the last time i used my barrett for some reason when i took it out on the range i was hitting 60m EASY but the guy who was my target said he couldnt feel it that time. whereas times before people could feel it. so he said to me it may be a airseal issue.

is it worth looking at the Areaps? or Rhop?

"He couldnt feel it but others could" - get a chrono, he might just have thick skin. A+ hop rubbers are marmite, i personally love mine but a lot of people dont get on with them. If it's an m4 in a shell then m4 hop units/barrels should work fine with it. I'd personally recommend an A+ rubber, prowin hop unit and some form of H/concave spacer.

ok dave, yeah its technically an m4 in a shell. i will take a look at the A+ i mean what have i to lose! H/Concave spacer? whats that for?

Re: Hurricane M82 conv kit

Basically means that the hop rubber is pressed down using a nub that's curved to fit the shape of the hop rubber/bb, instead of a flat bar.

Google image h nub for some different ones
