I'm looking to upgrade my snow wolf m24 and I was wondering can the trigger box handle a spring shooting 600 fps and when buying the spring in getting a stainless steel spring would there be any parts I need to go with it to make it work

 

[Reliku]

I don't know because I don't have one, but I think it's safe to say that the answer is "no".

You should probably buy a new trigger box for that.

Also, why 600fps? You're going to injure people. I'm shooting 80 yards with 450fps, 500 or 550 is more than enough

The spring says 520-600

 

[Poltergeist]

It is against the rules to discuss above 550 FPS.

I may be new to this forum but I'm not new to forums in general. And you've made 3 threads in two days about the same gun asking almost the same thing (upgrades). Try and keep it to one thread to create less clutter. Someone please correct me if I'm out of line ; )

Thank you for the advice I leterally joined yesterday and I'm 14.. So I guess you can figure it out ��

 

[Reliku]

That is overkill. Really, what are you trying to achieve? Set a new world record for long range ballistics? :hehe:

Get a M150 spring or something, or maybe something higher and cut it down to achieve the desired fps (be it 500 or 550fps). 600fps is like 3J of energy, if you're going to play with that then your opponents better be wearing full face & some kind of crotch protection....

I'm just gonna say why would they make the spring if it want meant to be used

 

[Stryl]

And honestly I don't play much it's honestly for my backyard where theres a hill I shoot from to targets in a valley

 

[Reliku]

I'm just gonna say why would they make the spring if it want meant to be used

Because those springs combined with a widebore barrel will yield a normal fps and increased accuracy, but if you put them in a tightbore you'll probably just injure people.

Either way, stock sears will most likely not handle 600fps, expect slam firing if you try :yup:

 

[Stryl]

Okay thanks for the tip

 

[MueR]

Don't take this personal, it's not aimed at you.

I'm just gonna say why would they make the spring if it want meant to be used

Because there's a market. That market is, at least for a good part, people who get their juices flowing with the thought of the highest possible FPS. That market is idiots who up their rifle to well over field limits and disregard the safety of others. Usually the type of people who will show up at a FPS test with .40g bbs in their mag and telling the marshal it's .20g or .25g, hoping to go by undetected. These are the same type of people that buy a HPA kit and once they've passed the chrono open the regulator to get even higher FPS.

Now, there are people who use those stronger springs in setups where they will remain under the field limits. In some cases field limits border on dangerous, in other cases their rifle is equipped with the aforementioned wide-bore barrels, meaning they can use a stronger spring at the same FPS. Others take a slightly stronger spring and cut it so it creates less (or no) noise.

To install springs that strong, you will need to upgrade a trigger mechanism or the gun won't last very long. Depending on the quality of the cylinder, that might also not last too long. I don't know the quality of the SW M24, so I cannot be sure.

Okay thank u I understand I was just confused

Remember that it will be harder to pull the bolt back with a stronger spring, I have tried to pull a svd with an m150 or m160 spring and could not do it and I'm 25 and pretty strong. An svd is not built like an m24 so it may be harder to pull back the bolt on that one but it still will be harder to pull.
You may even need to upgrade the bolt handle

If you can't pull an M150 then you're doing something wrong, really

And yes, MueR is right, I just didn't want to accuse people :hehe:

 

[baracken]

Could have been a stronger one its two years ago and it was my buddy's gun, I know it was a strong spring

You need to take into account the spring strength when your in uncomfortable positions as well. For example when I got my upgraded spring I could pull it back no problem when standing or kneeling. However when I was laying in the prone position I could not pull it back and still remain "stealthy". To pull a really strong spring back in the prone position requires a lot of body movement and flex. Not good if your a sniper.

 

[Stryl]

I understand

 

[Stryl]

Just wondering what does a upgraded piston do

 

[Fitch]

Most high end aftermarket pistons, such as the Laylax ones, feature a rubber end cap designed to give a better air seal than a standard O-ring. Also, they're made out of metal, to give a much higher durability, and are held to higher quality control standards for the most part.
