Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

lol, cool, thanks, I will keep that in mind in case mine wears, I know the one I have is fine yust thought the piston would be made to fit it better , it kind of floats around.

So the grub screw anyone??

Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

The grub screw is to be used instead of the airbreak I believe

Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

Airbrake? Sorry, I am new to Springers.

Have just finished the upgrade and doh... 531, with a 150 spring (I have the 130 too) but was wondering wether this Laylax setup beds in and loses any fps?

Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

the tip of the PSS10 piston is white and you can unscrew and replace with the grub screw. meant to increase FPS and and increase noise

Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

great, thanks for the info. I need to lose 30 fps from my 150 spring or gain 55 on my 130 spring :| any ideas?

Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

it won't lower fps that much from use...

best thing to do is somply cut half a coil off the 150 spring (piston end) at a time to see what it then chrono's in at

Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

good call Badas I may do that but another thought occured to me, the PSS10 silent damper pads.. I heard that they reduce FPS, normal considered an issue rather than a solution, I may try these first.

Anyone ever used the dampening pads? comments? advice ?

Thanks again

PS.. pity there isn't a 140 spring

Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

Had a guy use a TM VSR with them installed firing the rifle next to mine.... bugger all difference so would recomend cheaper home made ones and/or chop the spring

Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

Great, chopping it will be Thx

Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

Need help guys I've fitted new spring, spring guide, piston and sear gears, but when I pull the bolt back it snaps forward, but when I put the original parts back in it works fine ,so I got to thinking do I need to change the cylinder. Cheers gaz oh it's JG Bar 10

[DARKWOLF1298]

Yeah that sounds like either the cylinder or the spring guide stopper... Not exactly sure which one?
Is it the stock cylinder?

[badas]

Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

doubt it being a cylinder issue, more so the sears / spring guide stopper... just make sure spring are the right way round etc etc,

what makes are the new parts?

[DARKWOLF1298]

Apologies I ment piston not cylinder!
(it's been a long day) haha

Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

Yes it is a stock cylinder, sear guys are action army as is the spring guide, spring and piston are laylax, I noticed that with the piston you get a small screw with it , what is this for . Cheers gaz

Re: Sniper Upgrades (based on a VSR) and Further Guide

The small screw is the replacement of the airbrake on the piston to up the fps but decrease the silencing effect
