| Tightbore, and possibly a hop up bucking upgrade. No new spring is needed because this gun comes pre-upgraded if you bought the "enhanced version" that has a 110% rated spring pre-installed.
You must also use .25 g bb's with this gun. There is no choice. | |

| I agree with Lone Wolf. A tightbore barrel and .25g BBs will do the most for your accuracy. Then a new bucking for that extra little notch up. Matrix and G&G both make high-quality biodegradable .25g BBs that will not shatter and will not damage your gun. | |

| barrel length tbb for an m4 would be - 363 mm
were you planning on getting a longer barrel and getting a silencer? (barrel extention) | |

| it would increase your accuracy a bit. and range as well. but for your standard m4 the barrel length is 363 mm | |

were you planning on getting a longer barrel and getting a silencer? (barrel extention) The inner barrel runs to the end of the RIS system on this particular model(is not 363 mm). The outer barrel extension hides no inner barrel. | |

ah really? i didn't realize that. food for though what barrel length would it be then? I just know 363 isn't the length for this one because I have it and put a 363 in there. Yes a 363 length would still work...but to go flush with the flash hider you need about a 410-15 length tbb. | |

| well the barrel this came with says 363 but the inner barrel stops about 6 inches away from the end of the gun so im not sure what barrel it means. o by the way do you know if the bipod part of this grip works | |
