Thanks for the advice, Im going to put a new spring and piston in. I fail to see the importance of a new spring guide and I am assuming replacing the shims is easier than I am making it. Either way incase you didn't already know Airsplat has offered the worst support of any store I have ever purchase from. support being responding to my emails for an RMA request.

Okay, I'm going to abandon the idea of a higher voltage as the cheapest gears I could find were like 75 roughly and pretty much everyone has said its bad to just drop a higher voltage battery into the gun. But Evike.com has done a pre-upgrade with the gun using the following items: http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=1636 an M120 spring (12.00 dollars) (390fps roughly). and they reshimmed it. Q1: I know I can replace the spring and piston no problem but reshimming is going to be a new experience. Is there a good guide to reshimming? Q2: here's what Im

You would need a new set of gears if you were going to get a 16 tooth piston then right? Are there any recomendations for a 16 tooth piston and gears? How do you reduce the length of the cylinder?

Thanks for the response. Thats very interesting about the hop-up and barrel, I was looking at probably the same hop-up so maybe I will hold out on getting it. Please do post about how well it works. I don't intend on running it with the blow-back, as much as I like the feature I don't see it contributing to the guns performance. Has anyone tried higher voltages and seen the performance? Ive been through the thread and what I found was talk about lowering the voltage or maintaining it, no one seems to have tried higher voltage. Why would the ROF affect the piston and cylinder. I thought that wa

Would a 10.8volt wreck this gun? Im waiting to get it back as the sling broke and the outer barrel bent. When I get it back I would like to replace the spring and piston. To make up for the decreased rate of fire, due to the spring, I want to get a higher voltage battery. Please explain WHY as well, whats going to happen with the gearbox spinning at higher r.p.m.? Would you recommend reshimming it before getting the battery? Lastly, what sized shims does this gun take? If my questions have been answered already please direct me to the page, i don't like when things are repeated either but

I feel like an idiot now, I found out really soon after that post where the smaller spring went. Also I think that piston doesn't work with it.

I want to upgrade my gun and I got the piston assembly apart there is a smaller spring and I don't know where that goes. Also Can I replace the piston with a different numbered tooth piston such as this one: Here are the upgrades I would Like: http://store.matrixbb.com/servlet/-strse-2...Pressure/Detail http://store.matrixbb.com/servlet/-strse-2...er-Tight/Detail http://store.matrixbb.com/servlet/-strse-2...--MATRIX/Detail http://store.matrixbb.com/servlet/-strse-2...etal-Hop/Detail

Hi just got this gun today for the holidays. is there a sight with an indepth guide to taking this gun apart. I have it siting out in front of me "feild stripped" but I want to take the piston out so I can clean off some of the gears and see what I can do about reshimming them too. is there a link to an upgraded spring I could get? thanks very much.
