Airsoft

My friend decided to get me involved in Airsoft.  My first and only acquisition is a Tokyo Marui P90TR.  I was initially drawn to the P90 by playing Rogue Spear.  The P90 serves me well and was something different than the bulk of the Airsoft guns at the time.  The stock muzzle velocity was 278-280 fps with 0.2g Tokyo Marui BBs.  I decided to tinker with it to get some range while still maintaining its compactness.  I added an AK Systema 6.04 barrel which easily fit to the end of the stock fake suppressor.   The results were not impressive so I added a SP100 spring and metal bushings.  The results were amazing.

Modification
Velocity (fps)
Stock, 0.2g TM BBs
278-280
AK Systema 6.04 barrel , 0.2g TM BBs
280-281
AK Systema 6.04 barrel , SP100 spring, 0.2g Tokyo Marui BBs 372-380
AK Systema 6.04 barrel , SP100 spring, 0.23g Excel BBs 348-358
AK Systema 6.04 barrel , SP100 spring, 0.25g Airsoft Elite BBs 331-377
AK Systema 6.04 barrel , SP100 spring, 0.25g Excel BBs 332-342

The Airsoft Elite BBs had quite a spread in velocity.  The barrel alone did not provide any appreciable improvement.  However, the barrel and spring combination upgraded my P90 beyond what I was hoping for.  I initally thought to get the velocity into the 340-350 fps range.  The 372-380 fps results were beyond expectations.
