hi this is my 1st thread so hopefully it is in the right place

i very recently bought my TM AWS L96 second hand it came with (upgraded wise) 500 fps spring with cylinder (installed), the standard spring (around 330 fps), PDI trigger(installed), standard trigger and a 6.01 barrel i was just wondering if anyone could help think of any more things i can do to it to make it shoot straighter. I have added more barrel spacers but that is it i mean for a TM its not performing as id expected :(

I would go ahead and get the feed ramp for the ammo made in metal by somebody just to be safe. I've been hearing about those breaking over the past few months. It sounds like you've got your power upgrades out of the way. Maybe just focus on accuracy/consistency upgrades such as air seal, playing around with hop-up mods (R-Hop, ER-Hop, etc.)

This isn't a Maruzen clone, it may need moving. If you'll do the honors, fuzz?

As for a metal feed ramp, get me some pics and I might be able to hook you up. For airseal, that means teflon taping threads between cylinder and cylinder head, that means cinching the bucking nice and tight, that means using something like an r-hop to separate airseal and hop components, etc. etc.

There are companies that sell metal ones, but they are all out of stock. Somebody else had this problem not too long ago, and it seems like it's a pretty common thing. You best bet would just be to get somebody to make one out of something stronger.

yea ok i will upload some pictures later tonight :)
dont spose anyone could send me links to the parts i will need (UK sites only)as i have never upgraded any of my sniper rifles so dont really know what i am looking for. Oh another thing whenever my gun jam's because of the feeding ramp it just gets stuck in there and i have to take my gun apart to get it out does anyone have a better solution to unjaming it?

Would you mind working on your writing a bit please? Capitalization would help a lot.

However, as for your question, look for these brands when looking for parts: Laylax/First Factory and PDI. Both of those will give you solid performance.

It sounds like you have most of everything that's needed already. I'd just tweak the hop-up or maybe think about running one of the many hop-up mods that are popular right now.

Do you know what brand the 6.01 barrel was? If so, where could I find it?
