So, does anyone know if Laylax's zero trigger system works with PDI cylinder set?...

But I think the PDI Trigger is discontinued... All I can find is parts for trigger system, but not the whole thing. Any tips on that?

Edit: Yup.. you appear to be right.

Try Dentrininty or another one of those "we stock really old stuff" places.

So, in conclusion to what I was saying, the Laylax piston head is compatible with the stock cylinder head. Also here's the important part, the piston head DO fit the PDI hop up unit.

Always, here's what I found out after tossing everything together including a madbull 509mm 6.03 tightbore.

My FPS increase from 450(stock) to 485fps.
My accuracy has increase quite a bit, and pretty consistence, but that's with 50 feet. I'll give a more detail update after this Friday.

I'm thinking of building the whole gun with laylax parts. Anyone know if that's somewhat close to what PDI provide?

Personaly, I find that it makes a better rifle, but usually more expensive and hard to upgrade, since not all parts are from the same company and in stock where you order.

Alright man... I'll trust you and build a LAylax L96!

So far I lost the spring and order another one off x-fire. Now I'm just waiting for it to get here because my accurracy is pretty sad when it comes to how my hop up is doing... But it is getting pretty far, now I can compete with an AEG, weeee...

More to come.

Just received full Modify parts for my Well (TSD) L96 (spring guide, piston, piston head, cylinder head, barrel spacers) for it and fitted the pdi hop-up with a Madbull 6.03 509mm. Everything works perfectly fine, the modify Cylinder head fitted no problem with the pdi hop-up. I have a velocity of 446 FPS with 0,20 and so far with some tweaking of the hop-up (it is not over yet just started tweaking it), I am able to achieve chest hits consistently at 150 feet (indoor no wind). For the amount that it costed me (overall with the gun less than $450) I am very happy with the results!

Your go the Modify way and I'll take the Laylax root, we'll have a shootout in the end to see how we do, hehe.

Looks like my project have to be put on hold seeing how outdoor season is over...

Does anyone know how Bolt Action do in winter time?... Would the metal break easier when it's cold?

For storage through the winter, should I disassemble the gun? Like every component just so keeping them in my cold basement wouldn't keep the spring compress constently? Also keep the o-ring in a little bottle of silicone oil just so they don't dry out? Or is all this unnecessary? What's your recommendation on keeping my Bolt Action top notch through the cold winter?

Also, could someone walk me through how to install barrel spacer? Do I put them on my inner barrel then slide it into the outer? Or should I push the spacer into the outer barrel then slide the inner barrel through?... I got 4, so evening them out is kind of hard...

Thanks for the help!

Don't need to do anything. If you assembled it properly, it will stay top-notch until next year.

That said, a little maintenance is always a good thing after you have stored anythin for a while, be it a computer, car or airsoft gun.

You can play with it in winter. The parts are made a lot simplier and sturdier than in an AEG, in fact there will be little to no difference... maybe a higher FPS (air is denser when cold).

For the spacer, you can place them on the tightbore and hold then in place with a few turns of tape on both sides...

Wee, took my gun out with a 250mm silencer on it for a game today, boy am I impressed.

At 150 feet, all I hear is the bb zipping by. IT WAS AMAZING!

That being the cool factor, he was aiming right at me...

So, after about an hour trying to adjust my hop up and another 30 mins moving around to make sure wind wasn't a factor to my right curving bbs. Yep, that's right, my bb flies to the right. At roughly 150 feet, it was about a foot to the right of the target... I try reducing the hop to the right, not much effect. It was annoying!...

Maybe my inner barrel is bent... or... Worse case, my outer barrel is bent! That would be terrible!... So long story short, I know Kos-Mos suggested the PDI inner barrel, but I was wondering if a Prometheus 6.03 inner barrel would do just as good with about 4 barrel spacer AND a length of 550-650 would be a good idea?

Any thought on it would be greatly welcomed!

Promy barrel will do just fine.

but you really only need 2 barrel spacers... I had one with a 650mm barrel and still used only spacers in the outerbarrel, plus the support from the silencer adapter.

What types of benefit do I get with a longer inner barrel? More range? Consistency? Or does it even make a big difference between 495 and 650?
