ditto, why spend so much moolah for relatively minimal performance bumps? plus when are you really going to REQUIRE those upgrades?.... stock should be fine.....

you dont need them. im actually going to downgrade mine in fps cause at my field you have to take a marksmans course for anything over 400. so does anyone know where i could get a spring that pounds out around 380 for my l96?

Dee's is not making inner barrels anymore. I spent over a grand on upgrading my L96 and from my expierence, upgrade parts are out there but not as easy to find as the VSR or BAR10 models in the sniper class.

First, try and find a TB inner barrel (6.01). Then, for the type 96 you HAVE to upgrade the Hop Up chamber. I used a PDI unit which worked out very well. With that I went with a FireFly Bucking, 4 Barrel Spacers, and a new Cylinder Set complete with a 170SP Spring (OK Brand). When you use these upgrades, you also must upgrade the trigger mech since the stock one will not handle the strain of your upgrades. I went with the PSS96 Zero which had an amazing hair trigger pull. All of which is costly, but you will never compete with a modded AEG unless you go the extra mile.

Start here for most of the upgrade parts mentioned above: Maruzen Type 96 Upgrades

For the Type 96 you have to go overseas for parts. You just cant find them in the US. Hence the reason I switched to the VSR10. But, My 96 was pushing 600+ FPS and VERY accurate upwards of 325'.

Please feel free to ask me any questions on the 96 since I have been there and done that with every aspect of upgrades and I have achived amazing results.
