FYI, if you consider 100% to be the maximum ability for accuracy increase in a KSC Glock, 10% is barrel cleanliness, about 20-30% is a tightbore installed, and the rest is ALL about inner barrel stability. With a safe, unloaded Glock, look at the muzzle of it and stick something like a pen into the inner barrel, and move it around. You'll see there is about 1mm of play in every direction. Install a larger O-ring to stabilize it, or wrap the inner barrel just behind where the O-ring sits and add enough tape to be able to get it back in the outer barrel so it doesn't move around too much. Best to add a bit more tape than you need, then peel back a half inch at a time and cut off. This will greatly increase accuracy more than any tightbore can.

Another tip, Glocks tend to shoot about 2" low at 30ft, so learn to shoot it this way: Line up the bottom of the front sight's dot with the top part of the rear sight. Using heavy BBs (over 0.28g) you can easily get man sized hits past 100ft. Aim for the head, hit the chest, even with a bone stock KSC Glock 19.

This post should be a sticky. Lol

-Upgrade recoil spring to Guarder or King Arm,
-Upgrade the mag catch to Guarder one, would save you a lots of headache in longevity of usage
-Get a tightbore if you want more accuracy.
-Get a few extra hop up rubber, you will need to replace soon if you enjoy shooting a lots.

Only those little upgrade will make your Glock last for long more than you can think off.

Thanks KND. By doing enough research, I was able to save quite a bit of money plus shipping. For the hop up rubber, how many shots do you think before i would need to replace it?

Yeah i found that the accuracy is off a bit. You must own a lot of glocks for this first hand advice you have given. Is there a type of tightbore you would recommend? I know there are some out there that say that they are the same but the price differently. How would you go about cleaning barrel? CuTip? I am worried about scratching it while cleaning it and from my understanding, you could alter the flight direction.

I went through about 2,000 shots before i replaced my first rubber. At the time i was using way to much silicon oil to lube my gun which caused it to swell up. I bought 3 (1 to use plus 2 for replacement) after that happened and i have yet to use my replacements.

As long as you don't over lube the gun i don't see you needing a hop up replacement in a long time. The stock (plastic) rocket valve lasted about 2 weeks before it gave out in my G19, so you'll have other parts break before the hop up.

no, you can get a 26 or 27 though then try and find a slide with the 39 trademarks (if anyone makes them) or get them custom done.

Yikes! I better stop over lubing it then. I got into the habit since my KWA P226 air nozzle broke due to under lubing. How would you know when the rocket valve breaks? Does it just spray out all the gas? I cant really tell on your avatar, but do you have the PGC slide?

You might surprise if I tell you how many hop up rubber I have ? I have like 6 of hop up rubber bought in bunch to replace. The reason is quite simple, bought 6 of them save shipping in one shot from Japan and you won't afraid can't find any replace part all.
