I decided to build following rifle:

I want it to be short, lightweight, precise, and durable. No need for fancy barrels, bipods or silencer (since a functioning silencer isn't legal in Germany). Because there are no legal (F-stamped) JB Bar 10 aviable i'll stick to a TM-VSR 10 GSpec.

Products I choose are either from airsoftstore/Sniper-AS/Airsoft24 or begadi (I prefer begadi due toTeam-sponsoring) so my options on a couple of parts (for example ZCI/AA/PDI) are limited and heavily reliant on aviability. Importing is depending on shipment cost and taxes usually not reasonable.

Weapon: TM VSR-10 GSpec: 300€
Cylinder-Set: AA-VSR Teflon coated: 80€
Piston: VSR Springer Custom 90°: 40€
Trigger: VSR Springer Custom 90°: 140€
Spring Guide: AA-VSR, ID 7mm, 90°, BB: 20€
Spring: AA-VSR, 500fps: 15€
Hop Up: AA-VSR CNC HU: 55€
Inner Barrel a): EDGI 6,01mm, 303mm: 80€
Inner Barrel b): PDI 6,05mm, 303mm: 70€
HU Bucking and & Nub: Maple Leaf VSR/AEG & R/Flat- Hop: 25€
Barrel Spacer: AA, GSpec 2pc.: 15€

I would like to buy an AA inner barrel, but I dont find them anywhere in Germany. So i think i'll go for Edgi/PDI. I think both of them come bridged and i havent decided if i'll go for a VSR or AEG Bucking. What are your suggestions about the barrel + Bucking & Nub.
I dont want to make my own flat hop etc, I need a Plug and Play Combination.

There are 2 PDI barrels with 6,05mm, but i dont really get the difference besides the notches. I always thought VSR barrels are not bridged.
PDI 1 - LINK
PDI 2 - LINK

Is the first one suitable for VSR buckings, even with the bridge? The fact that the AA HU fits both, AEG and VSR buckings doesnt make this easier for me.

The Edgi barrel aviable in Germany is this one: LINK
I dont get what this barrel is good for, I cant see an use of the different outer diameters and dont find informations about it beeind bridged or not. (doesnt look bridged). I can cut the bridges off, but this means i need to Stick to VSR buckings for the future, I dont know if this is necessary when using the AA HU.

If both of the named barrels dont fit my HU, i would consider this on from ML, I have read a lot of positive feedback.

Depending on the barrel i would stick to ML Products:
a) Decepticon 75° VSR
b) Autobot 75° VSR
c) ML Hot Shot AEG + VSR

Even if i might have read the answer in the past, another clarification & help would be nice

All of your chosen barrels will fit the AA Hop-up chamber. I would highly recommend Maple Leaf for the bucking and the nub and even their barrels are on-par with the performance from a PDI. Of course, the Crazy Jet won't to an EDGI but is still a viable choice. When it comes to choosing the correct Maple Leaf bucking you have a lot of choice and some are definitely better than others. My personal favourite is the Autobot. I have used it in multiple VSR's and pistols with outstanding results but usually you will have to test a few different brands and models to find the perfect one. If you end up using a Maple Leaf you will need a concave nub (which they conveniently sell) and an open barrel window. If your chosen barrel has a closed barrel window you can just file it off. However, just like buckings there are many different types that you can experiment with.


I hope this helps you so good luck :tup:
