Aug 18, 2009 12:50am
I was thinking of building up as a project gun a SR25 or m16 spr sniper platform from a m4 gbb.

easily done, but remember its gas, to turn it into a sniper system you will NEED to have the urge to "tinker" with it, all the time. as i am a gas user and getting it consistent is hard enough, its a bit more expensive to run a GBBr - gas/propane + mags = expensive, maybe not the propane but the mags. also if you want to run a sniper system - run a spring gun ;) its much more consistent.

ive ran a spring before but im thinking a dmr status weapon would be fun. been there and done that with a spring sniper. fun accurate but generally you dont get much action and ive moved on. :D

yes you can run a gbb rifle at 480-500 fps, at what temp? what if its hot, 480-500fps becomes 550+fps. only way to make sure it runs at a consistent fps, you'll need a stable supply of gas that is fed to the mag/system it uses. basically running a external gas rig will make it "consistent". check out boosters for sale, he has a nice kokousi for sale that would make an excellent rifle (dmr status)

ya for the WE? need tons, need to check hop unit, need to make sure to tighten everything down and loctite, need to constantly lube it , specially when using propane. need to make it shoot a lot less, trust me, its hard to get them down to 400FPS there are mods, but no upgrades yet. getting a WE id suggest not to wait if you want one, as i said already ATF is holding them at customs and not letting them into the US, so if you find one, be prepared, i have had mine for 4-5months and needs a bunch of new parts (parts are only to be had via HK - all stateside retailers do not have replacement parts or at least the ones that are mostly needed)

snoopy..just a sear, and a trigger plate, they are a total of 1.50USD per part..but i ended up spending about 60bucks, i have a total of 120 +/- 15.00 into my rifle, =) only thing that costed a ton was mags LOL...everything else was good out the box, but i did buy this "upgrade" part that blew..and was a waste but i been working on it and tweaking it, need to test it...but need those lower parts first lol. i havent spent anything on it as for real upgrades, since it wasnt too bad outta box, other than the 570+ FPS @ 74* LOL
