Not sure if this question should go here or not...
I'm no historical expert or know-it-all when it comes to PTWs...so any help is appreciated.
Regarding the PTW hopup rubber roller. I took a hopup apart yesterday and it had an older clear 'skinny' roller on it. The clear rubber would rotate/revolve around the bar and was torn. I took that out.
Question though. Should a replacement rubber rotate...or should it be fixed in place and not move (if that's possible)? If it does revolve around the bar, should it be "free" or really stiff in doing so?
To me...it would make sense if the rubber did not rotate...or at least didn't rotate very freely...as that would impart the most spin with the least application.
What I did was to use a black rubber cushion on the hopup cage bar...then a red rubber over that. It seems to work, but it rotates kind of easily. Have not tested longer distances. Hopup doesn't need to be on much....but again, I haven't shot past 35ft.
