G&G CM16 cqb version upgrades

Mar 5, 2013 4:23am
What upgrades should I get for my g&g cm cqb? I want to extend my range and accuracy a bit while still retaining the ability for cqb (overall shortish length+under 400), and I also want to bump my fps up without using too much battery power/wearing out my parts really fast if possible. I'm also ok with putting on a suppressor ( this one specifically http://www.evike.com/product_info.php?cPath=28_142&products_id=40357&osCsid=148f4b783c9c75a594724a08766ae3c3 ) but wasn't sure what else I should get. Also I'm on a budget, so I'd like to keep it as low as possible (100 is probably a good "max", 75 is probably more accurate). Oh and one more thing, the fps isn't a major concern as long as I can still get the range, I don't really have the budget to have AEX put the spring in, and I can do everything but gearbox work. (Yes I know a TBB will bump the fps/range/accuracy up, I'm asking for recommendations). I think to start out with, Ill order this http://www.evike.com/product_info.php?cPath=24_72_375&products_id=24373 and cut it down to size (will that affect accuracy/crowning much?) or get this http://www.evike.com/product_info.php?cPath=24_72_375&products_id=28897 (probably the other, this is about 30-35 mm to short). To cover the extended barrel Ill get http://www.evike.com/product_info.php?products_id=40357. Any other suggestions? I was thinking a new hop up to go with (Ive heard that a good hopup will increase accuracy and range more than anything) but I dont know what to get.

I have had bad experiences with both customers barrels and some of my own guns loss of velocity and and have the hop window not cut right. also they are made of soft aluminum (you can bend them by hand) with a coating of some sort. that coat can scratched and picks up bb streaking rendering it useless. all in all for 30 ish bucks there are better barrels with tighter tolerances and and sturdier materials. The barrel and bucking in your gun are two of the most important factors for range and accuracy, proper weight and quality bbs are the third. also do you have a new cm16 with the short 10in barrel? check to see if you have a set screw or a pin in the flash hider. if its pinned in place it will be quite hard to remove. a 300mm barrel will extend past the flash hider on a short raider.
