Hop up is gay, if you have serious power and a long barrel you dont need it. manchovie, youre nuts if you think hop-up increases consistancy with range, all it does is increase range and totally screws up accuracy and precision.
Either you're new to airsoft or you just lack intelligence.

If your BB does not spin, it will not be able to penetrate air resistance as well as a spinning BB.

An airsoft without hop-up will shoot a BB that may have a high muzzle velocity, but the projectile will fall VERY rapidly.

Ever have a gas gun with no hop up and a long ass inner barrel ?

Maruzen Mp5k with 300mm inner barrel, hits coke cans every shot at 300feet.
NO HOP UP


NO HOP UP
KWA MAC11 with 200mm inner barrel, hits coke cans every shot at 250+feet


NO HOP UP
KSC G19 with 178mm inner barrel, hits coke cans every shot at 200+feet


You dont know shit if you think BBs will drop "very rapidly" without hopup. Are you sure YOU'RE not new to airsoft ??? Why do you think the Japs use target race guns that have no hop-up? geee I wonder
