    anything changed at all yet? what gun are you using?

    to start, i usually change the barrel to a 6.03 madbull tbb and at the same time install the likes of a gaurder clear or madbull blue hop up rubber.
    i also changed all my guns over to deans connectors, much better than the taymia's that come on most guns.
    after that i change the piston and gears and bushings (depending on the gun), and then the motor.

    Accuracy can be improved with a tightbore barrel, the accuracy and range affect of the barrel can depend on the bore size. Tight bore barrels can be anything from 6.00mm to 6.05mm, tighter is not necessarily better. A popular bore size is 6.03, for brands the madbull black python 6.03mm barrel is nice barrel for about €30-40.

    Putting in a tightbore barrel may increase the fps slightly but in some cases it can go up by ~20 fps. You can get the barrels at SEAirsoft and Hobby Airsoft as far as I know, maybe others too.

    To increase your range a new hop up rubber can be fitted, some work better in certain guns than others, you have popular choices like guarder clear, madbull blue, modify, and ultimate; off the top of my head.

    To straight up gain power (And stay under the legal limit) a new spring could be put in, however It'd be better to fit the tightbore first and see what fps you're getting, if it's still low check the airseal in the gearbox before resorting to putting in a new spring, if you're unfamilar with the gearbox it'd probably be better to bring it to a tech/shop to perform the upgrades you want.

    Id say definitely go for a tightbore barrel and a new hop up rubber then, well worth the money imo
