JG Barret .50 cal sniper upgrades

[drg303]

Is it possible to upgrade the barret? If you dont know the gun, its at evike.com. its spring action. im lookin at getting it, just wondering if upgrading would be possible or not. thanks,

Well from what i know that gun shoots faster then most stock snipers and doesn't really need upgrading and yes .30s would be fine but from what i have herd its parts are similar to APS2/L96

You CANNOT put a zero trigger in these though! Everything about the gun is APS2 compatible but the trigger Also, I would highly recommend getting a new hop up along with this gun if you do get it. The stock hop up was horrid.

It sounds like JG based their design off of the Maruzen SR2, which also does not accept the Zero Trigger but takes most every other APS2 upgrade out there. The important parts are still upgradeable, so go for it. Clean out the inside of the cylinder, then replace the piston with a First Factory Tri-Element piston, the head with a Guarder APS2 head, and the spring with one of your choice. I don't know what kind of hop is in there right now, but I'd investigate putting a PDI hop chamber and an AEG barrel in there as well. you should be set then.

Unless that trigger is upgradeable or as strong as can be stock I wouldn't recommend it, no point in buying an airsoft gun (which almost is guaranteed to break at some point in its life, being the nature of our sport) only to not have a way to fix it.

If it was made using the design I'm thinking of, then it's plenty sturdy, and should go for quite a while. I'm thinking it's based off of something like the Maruzen SR2, which was designed to be extremely simplistic ("SR2" actually stands for "simple rifle 2"; simple rifle should have an obvious meaning, and the 2 is referring to the fact that it was designed using the APS2 spring propulsion system).
