Got 2 groups to share. Top one is shot with my Daisy Buck with open sights, bottom one is shot with my 880 modded with a 499 barrel, hop up, and a red dot. Both groups were shot indoors from a seated position, resting my arms on the insides of my knees. Here's the 880, it is actually .5" shorter than the buck!
This one has been on ice and just itching for action. Heck, it may just win on looks alone.
That is just outstanding phenomenal Geo.You have any plans to convert these 880's for Order?I hope so, cause then you will have one from me in the future.
My goal is to make an adjustable hop up so the user could adjust for different ranges / power levels.

As for my first 4 I think I can give them a run for their money with a slingshot.

Hop up is common in the airsoft world, it is a mechanism that puts backspin on the BB. The backspin not only help stabilize the BB, but also creates lift. By adjusting the amount of backspin, you can get an amazingly flat trajectory. Avoiding cant becomes very important with a hopup system!
