KWA M11A1 (Mac 11) Where to get a tighbore barrel (US ONLY)

I know this is a Canadian forum and all, but I made a point in looking for a tightbore barrel for my KWA Mac 11. I came up unsuccessful, as I do live in Canada. However for those in the U.S. looking for one (which may not be many) you can find a tightbore barrel made specifically for the M11A1 on the KWA proshop. Look for the link below.

What are the chances a KSC barrel would work in the KSC? You could always ask Jugglez (airsoft parts) to order one in for you, he does HK orders (Redwolf, etc) every couple weeks.

Ummm I'm not to sure. The part was made specifically for the KWA M11, so if any internals are slightly different between the two models it could cause jams or might not fit properly. I honestly couldn't tell you though.

From what I understand, KWA is a clone of KSC. If I could get a tightbore for an M11A1 that would be sweet!

I'm just going to clarify for anyone reading this that he means KWA is KSC outsourced to Taiwan...

KWC is a whole different company that is generally considered inferior to KWA/KSC.

KWC was the company that made the full metal C02 UZI a while back. They also make some lower grade GBBs and some springers.

They WILL ship to CANADA but not guns or receivers. Parts are no problem. At least that is what I was told by a guy in the Pro Shop. You have to call them.

Interesting, I will look into it. The real question is the actual benefit it would have on a gun like this. Especially considering the price of a tightbore barrel.

I guess that depends on how you use it.

For me, if I was getting a tightbore on an M11, I'd get a long one and hide it under a silencer.

I wonder how much that would add to the FPS...
