Default Heng Long Airsoft BB's



It seems like there are a lot of people that have issues with there airsoft gear on Heng Long tanks. So I would like to offer some advice as I'm a 10 year veteran of "airsofting"(kinda like paintballbut better).Doesn't matter if its a model tank or an airsoft gun, same rules apply...

*IMPORTANT* Rule #1: NEVER use the bb's that come with the gun(they are garbage and can jam/damage your gear)
Rule #2 : Lube your barrel and hop-up regularly with a very "light" coating of silicon oil(no other type of oil!)
Rule #3 : Only use high quality(seamless) airsoft bb's(.2g seem to be the best with a stock Heng Long set-up)

If you follow these rules religously the chances of having any problems will be cut in half(I can speak from experience)....

I agree. For all the time I spent trying different mods, the thing that had the best result was the regular use of silicone spray in the barrel.

Question- I use a dry silicone spray (usually spray it on a pipe cleaner and then insert it into the barrel) I use the end of the pipe cleaner to dry the inner barrel. My upgraded airsoft gun use either a madbull or promethus 6.03 barrels (and matrix 020g bbs)

you got it!.... ...I'm running the same set-up in my airsoft m733(4x20 illuminated scope,madbull 6.03mm tightbore barrel,madbull "shark" bucking/"H" nub,upgraded spring&piston)except I'm shooting about 400FPS with .25g bb's......great forgiving somebody "cauliflowerear"at 100ft...mmmuuuwhhhaaaa!

Rule #1: ALWAYS aim for the head
Rule #2: always double tap(want to make sure the guy knows hes been hit)
Rule #3: when shooting women and children(if they're stupid enough to play airsoft with the"big-boys")don't LEAD them as much...

WAR IS HELL...LOLOLOL

Can you give us a brand name for the silicone spray?

Well I play on regulated fields with referees,and they check your gun before the battles start,and they have a limit of 400 FPS for rifles/300 FPS for pistols/ and 600 FPS for sniper rifles(w 75-100ft minium range). Its one thing to shoot at targets with a maxed-out gun, but getting hit with 400fps at 50ft, and you'll know it!!! lol..I hate limits, but they do it for safety.....hell they even have a full-mask rules they started in 2009as a lot of people were getting chipped teeth and bb's in their ears(hmmhmm )...i think insurance companys are forcing them to do it as just about every major field I've played at is doing the same thing...

I will tell you, its much harder to trick out a gun to "specs" then to just throw a ton of hop-ups in it and make it as powerful as possible....

my STG44 was shooting around 450fps stock, and the silicone spray hugely improved that. it's a wicked gun

the entire thing is metal and extremely solid, probably the best built/most sturdy airsoft gun out there. I think its the hardest shooting unmodified gun that you can buy

You can get a real wood stock with it too. You can get killer deals on them on ebay occasionaly
