Hop up terminology and placement question
 

http://www.21stcenturyairsoft.com/pr...ail/ge0701.jpg

the thing on the left is called: hop bucking, sleeve
the little thing on the right is called: ???

also about the object on the right side...
where do i place it in the hop up unit?

thanks

Thing on the right is the nubbin

It goes in the actual hop up unit (there is a small space for it about halfway in),

The hole runs perpendicular to the travel of the BB, it isn't held in by anything so you have to turn the unit and roll it in with our finger.


Can be a pain in the arse...

Left is called hop up sleeve and the right is hop up bucking.

I don't think I've ever heard someone calling the nub the bucking before. All instances of bucking I've seen thus far refers to the sleeve.

I've repeatedly seen it called the bucking/packing/nubbin before and have called it bucking/packing/little tubular thingy. Best to describe to new players the sleeve is a sleeve, and the little tubular thingy is just that. And not to LOSE it!

The little do-hicky that fits in the whatcha-ma-call-it :)

I always thought it was called the bucking

left is the hop up sleeve, right is the bucking

sleeve and bucking are interchangeable. Its the part that actually touches the B as it passes down the barrel.

The nubbin is what gets pushed into the bucking to create the bulge in the sleeve/bucking that the BB grazes to get backspin.

The best way not to be confused is to know the proper names and use them.

lol.. thanks for the responses..
i 'think' i got my hopup installed properly now..

just call the big tube the sleeve
and the small thing "the small little thing"

If the little bit is anything like the vsr it can be made by cutting the ink tube of a pen
