Frequently Asked Questions

What do Airsoft Barrels Do?

The hop-up mechanism feeds the BB into the inner barrel from the magazine, and the bullet travels through the barrel and is fired towards the target.

Does AEG Barrel Length Matter?

The length of the inner barrel affects the FPS (feet per second) firing rate of the airsoft gun. Generally, longer barrels will increase velocity and create FPS rates.

What Barrel Length Do I Need for My Airsoft Gun?

Even though longer barrels provide higher FPS, that doesn't necessarily mean it’s the right fit for you or your gun. Some guns work better with shorter barrels, so consider the size and type of gun you have as well as your playing style.

Why Has My Barrel Stopped Working?

Common reasons why an AEG barrel may stop working could be due to: dirt or debris in the barrel, old parts and springs, a misaligned hop-up unit or damaged parts inside the barrel.

First, clean the barrel to make sure there aren't any jammed BBs or debris, then check the other components of your barrel and replace any worn parts. If your barrel is damaged, it will need replacing.

We have a great variety of airsoft AEG barrels for repairing and upgrading your existing ones to help improve consistency and accuracy. Our tightbore barrels come in a choice of diameters, such as 6.02mm and 6.03mm, and are available in numerous lengths up to 715mm, allowing you to find the exact size that your airsoft gun needs.

The Importance of Inner Barrels

The inner barrel works with the hop-up to guide each BB towards your target, so making sure it's clean, straight and in good condition is paramount. The barrel length can affect the FPS of your airsoft gun, as it needs to be matched to the air volume of your cylinder. Choosing the right length helps you find the balance between velocity, consistency and manoeuvrability. See our pistons, cylinders and heads to match your setup, and always chrono after fitting a new barrel.
