My Monthly Competition Rifle (ECHO1 M28)

My Stock M28 kinda caved at 500 rounds, what with magazines miss-feeding, and the trigger sears weakening enough to begin slam firing etc. So I have decided to get all of the available upgardes for the rifle and hope for the best.

Here is video of my M28 as it was shooting before it started to fail...


Since this video was made, I have found that many of the well known VSR-10 hop-up chambers will not fit this rifle, and as of this post, there no replacement cyclider sets or pistons.

With that said, I have implemented the following upgrades that should drastically improve the consistency and accuracy of my M28:

1) Masamune 6.01 515mm Barrel (specific to the M28)



2) AirsoftGI (Action Army) VSR-10 bucking



3) AirsoftGI reinforced sear set



The sear set was installed soon after the one and only slam fire that I experienced with the rifle. The new barrel and bucking were installed last night, and are still dependant on a good round of zeroing in before I can say whether or not they will work as intended.

Finally, I have opted to try .43g ammo, in particular, Javelin brand .43's.



I am leary of the color, as I will more than likely not be able to see where my shots go. They are listed as purple, but they may as well be invisible or Jet Black.



I do have a fall back plan, I have also purchased a lighter spring, a Laylax SP130, so that I might save my sears, and still use the .30g KSC ammo. More testing to follow this weekend. If the miss-feeding magazines issue does not work itself out, then all may be for not... the magazines are unserviable and they just plain suck! I said so from the begining.

So this is my monthly target rifle, if all goes well.
