I just procured a CA M24. I'm looking to put it around 500 FPS. I don't mind dropping some money, but I don't want to be wasteful. Any suggestions?

If you only want about 500 FPS out of it, your best bet is to just purchase a PDI Cylinder Set R Level 3 for M24 along with a M150 or equivalent spring.

Any idea where I can find? I checked WGC, and they are discontinued there.

A complete list would be awesome. I can wait.

I'm waiting for some paint to finish drying, so I figured I could get you a list real quick. Everything on this list is based off of WGCShop, without shipping. Also, not all of the products were currently in stock, so you may have to look around.

Nice, I think I might use a similar parts list for mine. Thanks Dutton.

Not a problem. You definitely want that Teflon Cylinder, they're amazing! We're getting one for the L96 soon, after using the one in the M24!

Do they sell Teflon cylinders cheaper anywhere else and do they work for lower grade guns?
cause i am new to sniping and just got a WELL L96 (not great but inexpensive)
and was wondering what and where the best Teflon cylinders are.

thanks alot

First Factory is the only company that produces Teflon Cylinders. They do produce one for a Maruzen L96, for around $100-120, though I'm not sure if they're compatible or not with lower-end clones.

Hello, I'm new to the forum, and new to airsoft sniping. Just a few questions though. What's the FPS looking like for this set-up? Also, would I be able to use a PDI hop-up chamber?

For this setup, you'd be between 500-550 FPS. And yes, you could use a PDI chamber if you wanted. You can always use a PDI chamber, whether it be with the stock barrel, a specific sniper rifle barrel, or an AEG barrel.

Awesome! I've read that the Classic Army M24 uses AEG barrels- is that any AEG barrels? or are AEG barrels set up for different manufacturers? I just want to make sure a barrel I get is going to fit my rifle.

You can use any brand/make AEG barrel in the M24. The stock barrel length is 515mm, the closest AEG barrel length you'll find is 509mm, which is an M16 length barrel. Unless of course you want to go with a longer barrel and suppressor.
