Do Inner Barrels in Airsoft Guns Make a Difference

Today'south web log is designed to help y'all determine what upgrade barrel you want to get. The two primary reasons people desire to upgrade their barrel is for accurateness and for velocity.

If you've watched our previous videos or read our blogs where I talk nigh barrels, you lot'll think that I said the quality of barrel really comes down to the end inside the barrel. Just to reiterate my points: You could be rocking a brass, aluminum, steel or steel barrel based on your personal preference. The differences on newspaper can be argued from here to eternity. Performance-wise, the 6.01mm barrels will give you a slight edge in velocity merely the difference in accuracy being better is marginal. With that in heed, you just want a smoothen finish and a truthful barrel. I personally take used each kind in my many airsoft guns and just going off feel and results, I cannot tell the difference what cloth is ameliorate when quality is equal.

CUSTOM LENGTH BARRELS

Only to warn you guys, some barrels out at that place are absolute trash so be careful. I've had people bring some barrels in to install, and though the price was adept and it'south overnice and shiny on the outside, their gun shot worse past the end of information technology. A lot of those customers are deal hunting or retrieve the barrels are all the same. In order to demonstrate the reality of it, I've ofttimes shot before and afterward the barrel install in front end of my customers to show that the butt was at fault. If y'all are unsure near a butt brand, my dominion of thumb is this: If the guys at your local field or store swear past information technology and personally run it, usually information technology's a good recommendation.

BARRELS AND UPGRADE PARTS

At present the principal departure is what size bore yous go with. Tight bore barrels have smaller inner diameter bores. Combined with loftier quality BB's, this tighter tolerance can translate to amend accurateness and increased FPS/velocity. I won't get too scientific but the cushion of air that the BB rides on as it travels through the barrel when information technology is a tighter bore equates to more compression which is how you go that FPS heave.

OK, all that is out of the fashion. Then what's ameliorate? The first affair yous take to ask yourself is how are yous using this gun?

You will become improved accuracy through a 6.03 and 6.01 barrel. One could debate the tighter the bore, the better the accurateness. I have to say that with the jump from half dozen.03 to vi.01mm, it would be marginal at best. Either bore size will exist substantially ameliorate than the six.06 or greater bore that most guns come with. For those who are non familiar with airsoft guns, accuracy in airsoft terms is not to the level of stacking holes at 100 yards on a paper. We're usually talking about torso-hit accuracy or combat accuracy. So a tight bore barrel volition close up your groups a bit (which could give you potential constructive range), and the improvements will be dramatic. If there is something to be said about 6.01mm though is that you will squeeze more FPS out of the same setup and that has been consistently proven.

Trick AIRSOFT ACCURACY PACKAGE

FPS does non equate to accurateness just rather the combination of good ammo, adept butt, good bucking, and hop up unit of measurement will exist the greatest contributing gene to your gun being accurate or not.

Overall though, having that extra FPS is nice likewise. Amongst responsible players, it's always said that FPS is a limit not a goal. For yous techy people who have to maximize your operation on everything, it'south usually the latter case. The FPS is a byproduct of these ugprades and your range does go up as a byproduct of the FPS, however your accuracy still lies in your gun beingness dialed in and the parts working together correctly. Results speak louder than potential and an inaccurate 400fps gun will still be beat by a 350fps gun that is very accurate when the hits count.

That said, if yous're looking for some FPS upgrades, I like to accost the butt first because upgrading that adds no wear and tear to your gun simply you get to enjoy all the benefits.

Some guns already come with vi.03mm barrels out of the box from the factory and that'south great too! Beginners might not know this and inevitably put bad BBs through it then you have to be careful and be certain you know what you have and what you are getting.

If it'due south a more entry level type of gun, the 6.03mm barrels shoot pretty skilful. The shine in the butt isn't the best and then yous could upgrade from that and yet squeeze more than velocity and accurateness out of it simply past switching to a higher quality 6.03mm barrel.

The main departure between the 2 that i want to make clear:

If you run a 6.01mm barrel, you accept to absolutely utilize good ammo and clean your barrel oftentimes or you will jam up more.

A six.03mm yet requires high quality ammo but is fashion more forgiving on jams. If you lot play outdoors, encounter a lot of dust/dirt and so I'd say stick to a half dozen.03mm for better flexibility and you'll be happy. If your playing environment is clean and controlled and you are meticulous about maintenance, a 6.01 is fine. And recollect, if you encounter a jam, do not effort to clear information technology by shooting it! Information technology's just going to add to the likelihood that you will strip something in your gearbox!
