I have a TM MC51 with an inner barrel length >500 (tightbore) with a new systema type-0 cylinder. Sometimes, the gun is rather large for CQC situations, and was wondering if I may continue to use the type-0 cylinder with a shorter tightbore without any problems. I can picture it being a problem if I were to use the stock cylinder with a longer barrel because it would suck the BB back in before it left the barrel; however, I can't visa versa. But if it weren't a problem, why bother with different versions of the cylinder? Thanks for any input that anyone may have.

I believe that each successive type of cylinder 0,1,2,3,4 sucks in less air, so the effective volume used to propel the bb is less.

Short answer:

Thanks a lot for the responses limper and neo. Just the answer I was looking for =)
