Where do I upgrade from here?
MR1
BT Apex Barrel
Crossfire 70/4500 HPA tank
Halo B w/ rip & V35
Chipley Custom Machine rightfeed adapter
Chipley Custom Machine midrise No-Pro feedneck
Got most of the really pricey gear already. Absolutely no desire to go electronic...looking for accuracy upgrades only. Still getting 10-20 fps velocity spikes, even with the HPA - thinking about running new line/ new ASA/ new drop forward.
Want to take this gun to precision sniping level. Any feedback is much appreciated.

Do you have Pics?
Id suggest doing a mod to the valve for air pressure purposes.
Accuracy is mostly based off of Paint to barrel bore match.
And there is no such thing as sniping

Also...can someone explain justification behind:
- Spring kit
- polishing internals
- new bolt/ striker
Thank you.

Pics to come. What are my options for a valve mod? Still working out paint-bore match with the Apex.

Also...can someone explain justification behind:
- Spring kit To get a good and consistant FPS
- polishing internalsless friction inside the gun
- new bolt/ strikerlighter, or more air efficient, that can reduce kick
Thank you.

no offense but you have a mech trigger frame and have a halo B w/rip imo thats a little overboard

Tell me about it...V35 as well. Thank god for birthdays. On the plus side, "chop" isn't in my vocabulary.

yeah, on the halo subject. maybe think about a qloader if you want the sniper experience. if you play in the night, red dot maybe

My suggestion, get an new barrel and a UMS Apex adapter. the sotck Apex barrel is just crumby. or if you don't mind waiting a while get the new lapco barrel with the built on adapter due to be released soon.

ps- Sorry Vike, i just had to. I've been waiting to use this.
if you want more consistency you could run a bottomline regulator setup.
like a on/off asa + palmers inline regulator
or use a female palmers as your bottomline
or if you run remotes,
screw a palmers reg or bob long torp reg into the asa and attach a remote to it

Might think about regulator like a palmers stabilizer on the bottemline.
(edit)ahh.... just realized there was a page 2, what CHNK said.
