An electric motor inside the AEG rotates a series of gears sequentially to drive the piston, which in turn compresses the spring. When the spring is released, the piston is being pushed forward to produce compressed air and propel the bullets. Due to such a complex internal structure, power upgrade is never easy.<\/p>\n<p>There is no substitute for good old fashioned know how. By upgrading the gun yourself, you are knocking out the hardest part of it first, knowing what goes where. The 2015 Edition of this book presents new concepts and practical skills reflecting the latest changes and trends in the airsoft industry. New technologies such as Electric Blowback EBB and Electric Recoil Gun ERG are also included in the coverage. After trying out the tricks and tips suggested in this book, never hesitate to contact us should you believe there are mistakes waiting to be corrected (there are always better ways of doing things\u2026).<\/p>\n<p>This is the book TOC:<\/p>\n<p>PREFACE 7<br \/>\nBEFORE YOU START\u2026 8<br \/>\nGOOD UPGRADE PRACTICES 10<br \/>\nGEARBOX VERSION, STRENGTH AND COMPATIBILITY 11<br \/>\nGEARBOX INTERNALS 15<br \/>\nPISTON AND PISTON HEAD 31<br \/>\nAIR NOZZLE 38<br \/>\nGEAR MESHING 39<br \/>\nGEAR RATIOS AND TYPES 40<br \/>\nUPGRADE SPRING 45<br \/>\nBASIC PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT 47<br \/>\nSPRING INSTALLATION 53<br \/>\nAIR VOLUME BALANCING 56<br \/>\nBUSHINGS AND BEARINGS 59<br \/>\nSHIMMING REGULAR GEARS 63<br \/>\nSHIMMING HELICAL GEARS 74<br \/>\nSECTOR GEAR DELAYER 82<br \/>\nONE O\u2019CLOCK TIMING 84<br \/>\nGEARBOX INITIAL TESTING 86<br \/>\nHOPUP CONFIGURATION 87<br \/>\nAEG ANATOMY: DEMO USING DEEPFIRE\/CAA M4S 101<br \/>\nAEG ANATOMY: DEMO USING VFC SCAR 107<br \/>\nAEG ANATOMY: DEMO USING CYBERGUN GALIL 112<br \/>\nAEG ANATOMY: DEMO USING ICS L85 118<br \/>\nAEG ANATOMY: DEMO USING CYBERGUN THOMPSON 123<br \/>\nAEG ANATOMY: DEMO USING TM PSG-1 128<br \/>\nAEG ANATOMY: DEMO USING ACM PPSH-41 132<br \/>\nAEG ANATOMY: DEMO USING M249 135<br \/>\nEBB ILLUSTRATED: DEMO USING APS M4 144<br \/>\nEBB ILLUSTRATED: DEMO USING APS AK 156<br \/>\nEBB ILLUSTRATED: DEMO USING ACM PPSH-41 163<br \/>\nEBB ILLUSTRATED: DEMO USING CYBERGUN GSG522 168<br \/>\nSPLIT GEARBOX CONFIGURATION 170<br \/>\nBULLPUP AEG CONFIGURATIONS 177<br \/>\nHIGHLY COMPACT GEARBOX CONFIGURATION 201<br \/>\nRECOIL SHOCK AEG CONFIGURATION 207<br \/>\nQUICK CHANGE SPRING SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS 218<br \/>\nHANDLING GEARBOX SCREWS 227<br \/>\nOTHER TOOLS 230<br \/>\nAIR SEAL 235<br \/>\nBARREL PRECISION 240<br \/>\nELECTRONIC SWITCH ASSEMBLY EXPLAINED 242<br \/>\nSWITCH CONTACT PLATE REPLACEMENT 245<br \/>\nFET DEVICE CONFIGURATION 246<br \/>\nHOME MADE FET LIKE SOLUTION 250<br \/>\nBURST DEVICE CONFIGURATION 251<br \/>\nCAPACITOR CONFIGURATION 252<br \/>\nFUSE REMOVAL 253<br \/>\nMORE ON BEARINGS 254<br \/>\nMORE ON CYLINDER CONFIGURATIONS 258<br \/>\nMORE ON BARREL LENGTH 262<br \/>\nSPRING ROTATION AND SPACER CONFIGURATION 264<br \/>\nADVANCED BATTERY CONFIGURATIONS 266<br \/>\nCHARGING NIMH CELLS 269<br \/>\nUSING LIPO 270<br \/>\nHANDLING LIPO PACKS 275<br \/>\nPROPER LIPO CHARGER CONFIGURATION 276<br \/>\nCHOICES OF WIRE AND PLUG 282<br \/>\nSOLDERING TECHNIQUES 286<br \/>\nMOTOR CONFIGURATION 290<br \/>\nMOTOR OPTIMIZATION 293<br \/>\nTROUBLESHOOTING HOPUP RELATED ISSUES 297<br \/>\nBULLET LOADING ISSUES 302<br \/>\nSILENCING 303<br \/>\nUSING BALL BULLET SHOOTING CHRONOGRAPH 305<br \/>\nFPS DOWNGRADE 308<br \/>\nMOTOR DRIVEN MAGAZINES 309<br \/>\nLEGAL RESTRICTIONS 311<br \/>\nAIRSOFT TRADE DRESSING 312<br \/>\nWHAT HAPPENED TO THE AIRSOFT INDUSTRY? 313<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/samplepages.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1362\" src=\"http:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/samplepages-1024x637.png\" alt=\"samplepages\" width=\"620\" height=\"386\" srcset=\"http:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/samplepages-1024x637.png 1024w, http:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/samplepages-300x187.png 300w, http:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/samplepages.png 1367w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Airsoft has been well established in Asia for over 20 years, but only in recent years has there been much interest in the Western world.
