Great vid! i am glad i stumbled onto your channel. We have 1 to 1 similar views and understanding of the science of airsoft. I personally like to use the ML HotShot buckings and i am interested in you testing these for yourself. HotShot buckings allow use of GBB barrels in AEGs and i personally see a huge improvement in airseal and FPS consistency and range. would like to see you test the new silicone ColdShot buckings as ML calls them now.

[@rhodrik.]

Amazing work you put in! Can wait for the shooting tests! Can you make a video on kwa hop up? Or what can you recoment for the stock kwa hop up really hard to find whats the best bucking

[@sigmattew]

hi, mechanical engineer here :) let me start by saying that I love your scientific approach to things. I also read that you have health issues, it sucks....and i hope you will recover soon. I don't know if you'll ever come back, but in case i would love a video about rifled inner barrels ; i know that the dynamics of an airsoft projectile is different compared to a normal projectile, but my question is : a round bb under the magnus effect is more stable than a classic projectile spinning? what if a plastic bb with the shape of a classic projectile(the ones with the rounded head) and a rifled inner barrel is used?

[@MegaChickenPunch]

it would have superrior accuracy but low range because nothing would lift the BB up. Remember we shoot with around 2J when normal weapons have like thousands of J.

[@Coolios1337]

Currently using the “old” MR hop. With the new silicone version, would you use the same degree/hardness as with the old rubber version?

[@reflexairsoft4648]

I would go one step up in hardness for the silicone vs the regular

[@r.in.shibuya]

PDI does not have other companies manufacturer their barrel… I’ve been at their factory / office in Wakayama.

[@jordanscarlett1500]

Thanks for your videos, they help out so much!

[@ShetlandTec]

Nice review! I think these window cuts would be great to r-hop the barrel, the straighter the cut is, the easier should be to install the pad, right?

[@moorgary2163]

Hi, is the shooting test coming soon? :) Thanks, Aron

[@reflexairsoft4648]

It is actually filmed, but am working abroad atm so wifi and 4G is really bad where i am 😊 so uploadning a 20mi. Vid is impossible

[@HVit-br9xe]

do you prefer five or one, what are the advantages of one over the other, especially for hpa. and compare to the prometheus canon you mentioned, which one do you prefer? And I ve seen a new pdi barrel of 6.15mm, i didn't find any information or opinion, if you've got one, i want it ! And awesome work btw!

[@Baldzior69]

I had two lambda barrels and really hate them because of how sharp the window is. Actually I lost 3 buckings by those. Much better choice in my opinion i Da-Vinci Airsoft. I have also heard that Da-Vinci is on pair with PDI. Compating both, the quality is actually the same, but Da-Vinci has longer window. It's still a little too sharp but do not cut the bucking. Waiting for your shooting test :)

[@xtairsoft]

Da-Vinci is run by the guy who used to run Lambda

[@Likexner]

You can use a very fine sand paper to sand down the edges.

[@Karrottop009]

I like to hold a finger on the opposite end of the barrel and push the bucking by the nozzle lips with my thumb so it balloons itself over the barrel rather than stretch over

[@darkshock42mlg05]

[@132predator132]

Hey Reflex are you still there?...

[@soulsaviorify]

What bucking did you use on this barrel? I watched your videos about BEGADI bucking's. I'm going to buy the same Lambda 455mm 6.05 inner barrel and BEGADI bucking for my KWA Ronin T10 and I would like to know the compatibility of these parts. what result did you get (range, accuracy, what bb's did you use). Which bucking works better on this barrel? Mag 5 or Mag 7 or Fly?

[@patrikdrenic3033]

I hope you are alive and well! All airsoft techs around the globe miss you.

[@xtairsoft]

[@reflexairsoft4648]

Thanks mate 👍

[@BorgCreations]

Dude have you seen the new Begadi Pro CNC hopup? Looks insane

[@vinylexplorer9817]

Hi there! I just bought one of these for my Krytac. Which bucking and hop-up unit would you recommend? TIA

[@chang.stanley]

Why not lambda 6.03?

[@BalazsCzigany]

@Reflex Airsoft What are your thoughts on Maple Leaf 6.02mm and PDI Raven? Those are coated barrels and really cheap. Will I notice any difference if I buy this Lambda or Davinci barrel instead? What would you go for if you wanted the best bang for your buck inner barrel?

[@reflexairsoft4648]

That depends, let me use cars as a reference. A coated barrels is like a rally car, it does not need that much cleaning or maintenance to work. A stainless steel barrel is more prone to corrotion, dirt ect. So to maintain top performance it needs service and maintenance, like an F1 car So yes your performance will increase with better barrels, but at a “cost”

[@BalazsCzigany]

@@reflexairsoft4648 ​ Thanks! Btw, when should we expect the shooting test? I will probably wait for it before my purchase. Unless you give your blessing to a purchase of a Lambda FIVE. My other premium option is a Da Vinci Akaishi (from Begadi), seems really good except the material is not stainless steel but carbon steel. Quick check on google says that is is prone to rust (tho specification on Begadi says it is rust free), but stronger than stainless steel. What is your take on those?

[@reflexairsoft4648]

The test is done and filmed, but working abroard atm, with no wifi and the 4G sucks, so uploading a 20 min vid is not gonna happen atm So yes carbon steel rusts, and it Can happen by just the moisture in the air where the Chromium portion of stainless steel Makes it very hard to rust. I have a da vinci and i placed it in my shed, and it took 7 days to show signs of rust. So i avoid carbon steel in alot of things, exept knifes 😊 I would choose barrel depending on hop Unit, bucking, and nozzle (hpa/type, aeg/maker)

[@BalazsCzigany]

@@reflexairsoft4648 Well then, what would you go for in my case, I have a completely stock Arcturus AT-NY02-CQ

[@reflexairsoft4648]

If you know how to install and align bucking/barrel.:Lambda barrel, Begadi mag5 or fly5(depending on bb weight) with omega nub. If you dont know how: lambda barrel, modify flathop, flathop nub eg. Begadi Pro nub

[@radon1221]

hope you're doing well mate

[@syncFIN]

Do you have experience with Da Vinci Raizen barrels?

[@quinndle]

So im getting a new hop unit and was going to follow you inexpensive route, I live in the US but I found a cheap aluminum cnc hopup that looks just like the powair6 one you use. In terms or the hop arm you use the aftermarket flat arm on the mr hop? As opposed to the concave nub they recommend?

[@reflexairsoft4648]

Hey, I would always go for the concave nub for buckings like maple leaf mr hop. If its a flat hop, i would go for the flat arm style

[@furtiplustion]

Im still waiting your video, hope you are great

[@aztecktube]

Great review dude you videos are actually very helpful! I was wondering if you can make a video about nozzle to hop-up chamber fitment, I have a cyma 0.98 dmr with the v2.5 gearbox and maxx hop-up chamber i am using the standart 24.5mm nozzle but the maxx unit says to use 21mm-22.5mm nozzle length is there gonna be a problem with that or should i leave it as it is?

[@tytalent4117]

What did you end up doing Aztecs?

[@aztecktube]

@@tytalent4117 Im using the g36 nozzle i think (24.5mm) for about 10 games now and it seems that there are no problems so far

[@furtiplustion]

I would say that microns does not exist LoL, i don't believe something that i can not measure. For me, 0.01mm is the lowest reliable value (in the best case). Gud vid.

[@leefreedman2043]

I watched your other video on bore size. Do you have a specific recommendation on bore size? I currently use a 6.01 (stock from Wolverine in my 6 month old MTW) but thought about trying something a bit larger, 6.03 or 6.05. I will buy a top quality barrel (wanted edgi but they are all out so probably a PDI). A buddy of mine swears by the 6.05. I can't seem to find any 6.03s in stock. Is there really much difference between all three? The small mm size seem like it would be inconsequential between the three. I liked your comment about moving the barrel and the larger the diameter the more the bb would move around. Not sure if this is the case why a larger bore barrel would ever be better than a smaller bore.

[@MegaChickenPunch]

Stock mtw doesn't have 6.01

[@mcranoxp]

Will this fit in a cyma m14 socom16

[@peterbagosi3862]

Ur right, im working in the metal industry, I am a welder and fabricator as well, Every metal ( alloy and stainless steel even more) deforms by temperature, I think a simple steel tube expand more than a 0.0001milimeter if you go back to your warm room from a +5 degree celcius outside. Total bullshit.

[@KeeepTV]

if you take the equation in stainless steel l1 = l0(1+a(t1-t0) and a a of CrNi 80 20 (a=15,5x10^-6) you get a expansion of the inner diameter by 0,00047mm by just switching for 20 to 25 degree C. This means a 6.0500 barrel at 20C is 6.0505 at 25C... so yes, 0,0001 tolarance is just impossible. Even 0,001 will vary if the temperature changes by 10 degree, lets say inside the hall it has 10 degrees C and in the testing room there is 25 degree.
