JG Aug A3 Level 3 Upgrade

JG Aug A3 comes with a mosfet chip along with its new rail system gives this gun some fearsome power but what if you add a level 3 upgrades from hitguns.com



We choose this gun to test because it has a reinforced gearbox and a mostfet to push the upgrade with out worry of breaking the gearbox, Also since this gun is a bull-pup the AEG can archive greater range and still remain compacted to the user, The plastic body also helps keep sound of the gearbox down since the sound can be absorbed into the body of the gun and not echo out like a metal body AEG

After we get the AEG ready for the upgrade our tech opens up the gearbox and gives it a throughout cleaning ensuring there is no grease left over from the factory/old grease. The gear box is then inspected to see if there are any defects like cracks, or warp in the metal.





Next our tech shims the gearbox to ensure the gun has smooth operation and the gears are then broken-in. The compression part of the gearbox is tested to make sure the piston and cylinder is holding and compressing the air properly to get the most out of the spring.
Everything in the gearbox is checked over, lubed and checked over again to ensure everything is smooth. The AEG was then shot with a 7.2 Volt Nic Cad Battery to ensure the smoothness of the tune and the fps.


In the end we have a 500+fps gun with the smoothness and reliability of hitguns.com.
Pared with the stock mosfet chip to save the electric contacts and for faster rate of fire this AEG can easily take a lipoly battery no problem with out the worry of burned connectors, wires or motor. After using the AEG the fps settled down to an average of 505fps.

Very interesting. I have the same gun, but its fps seems to be very low, and its a new gun. Could you give a list of internal upgrades used in the gun, I would very much like to have mine perform as well as yours. Also an estimated cost of the upgrades would also be helpful. Thanks!
