New spring and bucking

Thebrick534 · August 8th, 2011, 13:28

Ok well heres the rundown. My gun basically has a VA gearbox inside with a G&G hop-up. I was wondering if i would have to buy any other parts for my gearbox if i was to go to a 350fps spring, my gun already shoots 330fps but i want a bit more power so those .25's dont drop as quick. Also iv'e heard bad things about G&G buckings and rubbers so i was wondering if anyone could help me with a good one that would increase range but mostly accuracy.

VA gearbox? Do you mean JG?

I don't think you'd need to change anything. Throw the new spring in there and go for it.

yea JG gearbox since VA and JG are the same. But also is the G&G hop-up rubber/bucking or w.e really that bad?

Yeah the gun should be able to handle a 350 fps spring fine. Regarding the G&G bucking, I can't really remember what mine was like before I got a Prometheus, but I don't remember it being particularly bad. Buckings just depend on each set up. Can your G&G bucking overhop the .25's if you tune it up?

No they aren't "really bad". There are better options but there's nothing wrong with it.
