More info on this gun, VFC M4 SOPMOD from Mach1

[SwampSlayer]

I run 30 round pmags, so low ammo of full auto fire.

Could I run a 11.1 Lipo in this gun?

I am still figuring out the Lipo conversion, so which specific battery, ie 11.1v 2200mAh 25C???

Thanks

Generally speaking, a properly tuned airsoft gun between 350-400fps would run well (actually, on the brisk side) on most 15-20C batteries, LIPO or otherwise, provided the voltage is above 8.4v and the mAH is above 1100mAH.

11.1v LIPO would be fine, but I'd aim for a pack that's no more than 20C.

Can anyone point me towards a quality 11.1 lipo that will fit in the stock tube from a good source. Thanks

Instead of 11.1 I'd suggest a 7.4 high C rating, it's easier on your trigger contacts.

If you are still in GP, go down to Splatter Paintball. They have a bunch in the RC section.

Which 7.4 should I get, or 11.1 for that matter. Specific models would be nice.

I am looking at hobbyking but dont know which model would fit a stock tube.

Anyone have some chronos for this gun? I'm just wondering how it will play on big outdoor woods..
While I don't want to rely on Wikipedia:

Wikipedia:
VFC/GB TECH (Vega Force Company)
Highly realistic replicas. For more experienced players they are known as having poor quality internal. So far the guns this company manufactures are the M60 series, HK416 series, the AK series, BARs, Squad Automatic Weapons (SAWs), SCAR series, and a few sniper rifles including the Barret M82.

And I can't find much info on this gun on google.. it would be nice that the ones who have one give a few pros and cons..

Also:

What kind of battery fits this gun?

I'm not interested in LiPo.. I don't want a crazy rate of fire either, I rather have a bat that would last me a whole day of about 2000-3000 rounds. I'm guessing something in the 8.4V.. but what configuration and where can I buy it?

The gun should come with a certification rated spring for importing which would shoot too hard for most airsoft fields and the importer would most likely swap the spring out to a softer shooting one so chrono's found on the net for other countries version won't really apply.

Ive ran my Sopmod for 3 months now chrono's at 376 average with .20's and 338 with .25's and similar with .28's.................quality is amazing not one problem encountered in all conditions running all day on a 9.6 1600.

good rate of fire excellent range no stoppages, from crawling thru a swamp to playing in freezing snow conditions the Vfc has performed the same.

yesterday saw another 2000 .28's fired thru her and at one point the rifle was even dropped while making a panicked run to a building never missed a beat, i highly recommend the VFC Sopmod to anyone

WTF? Someone should go edit that...

For a longer lasting batter you want to look at the mAh generally, not the voltage. Also, if you go too low on voltage the battery may struggle turning the motor of the gun if your spring is a stiffer one.

I got the email this morning, my VFC Sopmod came in and will be shipped to me with tracking # today . Too bad redwolf screwed up my order and I won't have any BB's in time for when it gets here

EDIT: I received an email saying my gun was tested before shipping and shot 396-406 fps in 13C temperature.

I'm interested in this AEG too....but just to be sure...it comes with a complete metal body right ?

[Conker]

Yes Fab, they do.

[Fab]

ok, thanks Conker :-)
