.28 DOESN'T WORK IN MY PISTOL??

Hello all, no flaming or negetivity in this thread please.

Ok, I own a KWA USP Full, the gun works beautiful on .25 bastards or .25 madbull's, as soon as I tried .28 bastards the gun would fire a round maybe 5 feet, and that's IF it came out of the barrel at all, I have tried cleaning my barrel as well as toning down the hop-up to see if those were the problems, for now I will stick with .25's until I figure out what my issue is here.

Thanks guys!


Rex

KSC/KWA make some of the smallest
diameter 6mm bbs, so your hop packing,
and inner barrel are going to have jams
with alot of different brands.

There's a thread on ASC somewhere that
lists the actual sizes of many 6mm brands.

Well

He's shoting .25 from BB Bastard and from Madbull.

Witch are both 5.98 mm + -

I dont see the reason why heavier bb that shoud be the same size wont fly out your barrel.

What is the Fps of your GBB ? i assumed it high enough (320 + fps)

Coud it be the gaz flow ?

I see no reason why the .28g won't work in your gun, they are the same size as the other BBs, and it's not like your barrel is too tight (KSC stock tends to have a 6.14mm inner barrel). So likely it might be a lube issue, put some oil into your hop up rubber and try again. Weight doesn't determine if the BB will get shot or not, totally makes no sense.

Hey thanks guys on the opinions, I tried luding it and it seems to work better but oddly, I know it sounds impossible but sometimes my .28's just don't want to come out. Maybe it's the bag so I'll try a new bag just out of curiosity and phil_black I'm shooting 279FPS with madbull .25's

Thanks,
Rex-stickin' with .25's

I have a KSC Glock 17 with a Madbull Black Python 6.03 mm tightbore and I use .30g Bastards. They work like a charm. Not sure what the problem could be with this gun.

could it be that is hop up isn't properly adjusted to the .28s (i.e. on too high) and that is why they are getting stuck? did you try lowering your hop-up?

The .25g wouldn't come out in that case, if that was the problem he'd be complaining about his BBs "kissing the sky" if his hop up setting was too high. Sounds more like a lube issue after his last post.
