Hop-up chamber for the LCK replicas

     Hop-up chamber for the LCK replicas

The
Hop-Up chamber is designed for the LCK family replicas and is made of high
quality plastic. The plastic of which the chamber was mad guarantees durability
and a long time of use.

     What is the Hop-Up system?

The
Hop-Up system is a system giving the BB pellet shot by airsoft replicas a spin
movement. It uses the Magnus effect to flatten the trajectory of a flying
bullet and, therefore, it makes it look similar to the trajectory of a real
firearm’s bullet.

In
reality, it is a properly shaped rubber or silicon seal that by touching a sped
BB pellet gives it a rotation. The easiest way to explain what the Hop-Up
system is to say that a BB pellet that is spun from one side generates more
friction to the air so that it can turn. If the rotation will take place in the
horizontal axis the BB pellet will turn upwards and compensate the force of
gravitation.

The
level of how strong the Hop-Up rubber touches the BB pellet determines how
strong it will rotate and, therefore, go up. The heavier the BB pellets is the
greater must be the pressure of the Hop-Up rubber ( while the heavier BB pellet
has a greater inertia and falls down more quickly ). It works the other way
around too – when a light BB pellet will be rotated to strongly it can go above
the firing line.
