The open bolt did fix all my accuracy issues. It now shoots far and somewhat consistent. I put an ratech m14 precision inner barrel in so that may have also contributed to the accuracy. The hop up is a different design. In my opinion it is VERY cost effective to switch to open bolt. You get a new hop up, a new bolt catch, a new inner barrel, a new flash hider, a new bolt, and most importantly a new trigger group. All for about 70 bucks plus shipping. To order those parts separately would much much more expensive. I am actually planning on getting a second open bolt kit just in case something goes awry during a game. Just plop in a new trigger group and it's back in action.

Before you go open bolt, understand that you will need a tsc part 66 and a deadlydayne part 27. other wise you have a wallhanger.

this is where the cost effective bit loses it's logic. But I love the open bolt too much to go back.

side notes: the trigger group that comes with the open bolt kit is the same shitty pot metal one that comes with the we scar by default. The trigger group housing is modified slightly, All the ra tech steel upgrade parts still however fit into the new style of trigger group housing. I made a youtube video tutorial for switching the scar to open bolt.

-all your magazines feed lips need to be changed. it's a couple dollars per mag.
