    you could try turning/rotating the barrel to the right in the hop up unit.

    just wondering why you think that might work before i pull the gun apart

    because it might!! sometimes the barrel twists in the hop up unit and sometimes they are assymbled poorly in the factory.

    to be honest i've had the hop up off a few times adjuster giving trouble replaced it with another hop up so maybe i didn't fit it back right new to it all never done any of the fixing myself before i put some extra spacers in the outer barrel would this cause problems

    to get the bb's to fly straight the barrel has to be sitting perfectly vertical in the hop up unit and the hop up unit must be sitting perfectly vertical in the gun. extra spacers may/may not be the problem but its most likely the assymbley was not done correctly.

    only upgrade if you reckon you need to, dont do it for the sake of it.
