Hi,
Many thanks for this quick feedback.
First of all, I am happy for the magazine, I was afraid there were some issue with it...
For the bucking, I imagine this corresponds to hopup rubber, correct?
As a personnal test on it,I just had a poor experience with this supposed fantastic A+ for my usp from KSC, and honestly it makes just shit on this model, even with hop up at the maximum. The bbs fall at 10 to 15 meters. Much worst than with the original rubber from ksc. Maybe the weight of the bbs I use (0.25) is responsible of this, but this isn't really a good experience for such an expensive rubber. If you have an idea on this, I take... I will try it with the excell 0.2 I have in stock, but I don't really have hopes.
So I definitely would prefer to go on something else, that would really demonstrate efficiency.
For the game field, I shoot in my garden, so I am subject to all usual athmospheric constraints. I can have a field of 20 to 50 m more or less.
As said, I use 0.25 bbs, because it seems that heavier gives more precision, even if it loses some distance. I guess I probably didn't found yet the correct balance for this.
For the trigger, I am not even interested in the adjustable system, this would in fact be just for the metal aspect instead of the plastic original. For fun
Too much wind today again for good and accurate grouping tests, unfortunately.
On the kit, I was a bit surprised to find a steel outer barrel with the aluminium slide, but I suppose that guarder provides elements that go all together.
Edit: just found the reason when taking off the slide for a check: the outer barrel rubs inside the slide during the cycle. Having the barrel harder than the slide permits the wear to occur inside the slide instead of on the angle of the outer barrel, which would be very visible, and not so nice at all. Good to know! The barrel loses a little bit of its surface treatment, but keeps its nice sharp shape.
Another step would be to check the correct sealling of the gas route, but I don't have the beginning of an idea on how to proceed. Would a sealing gas route kit bring someting better? Or a new piston, valve... Complete set... Arf... Not so easy to point the really good upgrades!
Just for information, until which distance can I hope to shoot with accuracy with this kind of gbb? Is a 40 m a dream, or is this reachable with an intelligent upgrade?
And last question: except the slide and springs supplied in the guarder kit, should I bring any modification to the magazine or the mechanic to accept correctly the use of green gaz?
Despite the wind, I made a first test by hand, without blocking the gun for perfect stability, and without paying a lot attention to the precision. 16 meters (not a lot at all, but this is a first step) from the target, 24 of the 25 bbs are concentrated in a square of 10 x10 cm, without any effort. I will soon test at 30 and 40 meters, blocking the gun to check what it gives, but this seems promising.
Thanks!
