WELL L96 Shooting low out of box

[Bar1975]

my brand new L96 is only shooting 270ish with .20's out of the box??

Do i need to remove the cylinder head air re-stricter to get this 450-FPS out of the box myth?

if not related to the air restricter then what else could cause this? I've sense disassembled the entire gun and nothing appears to be obviously wrong.. shooting the same FPS on reassemble.

lemon?

If there is a restricter in it, then it must be removed to get over 400 fps.

You may have a defective spring.

Air restrictor? What is this, a Nerf gun?

well... i removed it and now im instantly up to a good 450ish FPS..

wow ..that's an insane FPS increase...

it's much louder now though...

I guess you meant airbrake.
I didn't know new Well rifles came with one.

If you want to keep the gun silent, you can re-install it and cut it down until the FPS is what you want.
