I personally like the Maple leaf nubs, I use them in most of my AEGs. I use them either alone on a stock bucking that i cut the fin and bump off of or in conjunction with a maple leaf bucking which has the flat bump to match the nub. Air seal on the Maple leaf bucking is also good with the ribs.
Just throwing this out as a suggestion G&G green buckings are also good I've never had an issue fitting one into any barrel or hop up and they perform great
The G&G Green buckings are definitely good as well. 8) At the time this was filmed (2014) we had not really carried them and they weren't as popular back then. Thanks for your input!
Even the red Prometheus Air Seal Hop-Up Hard Type very very bad, i had problem today the gun it doesn't shot (the gearbox sound) looks like using died battery the won't go out the barely can't reach 5 meter..
thanks as always for posting, I see how to make the flat hop now, however my guns are all rhop complete and I love it. next build I will test it out. still excited to see you all here in Mississippi in January. keep in touch!
I like the video, but completely disagree with the first statement. If you actually know how to correctly tune an rhop, they vastly outperform a normal flathop. On that note, as a tech myself, I almost always refer customers to flathop instead of rhop because it takes much less time, is easier to tune/install and still does perform nicely.
TURN THE BUCKING INSIDE IN NOT INSIDE OUT! Just spent 2 hours doing this to my Krytac and had all kinds of mis-feeding and low FPS issues because I left the bucking inside out. The texture on the outside of the bucking is different from the texture on the inside. Turn the bucking back INSIDE IN after you finish flat-hopping the bucking.
Cheers for the insight into wether or not to turn it back inside itself after trimming the bucking as I automatically did this and then though damn did I even need to do this..thanks soo much for the info 👌🏻
@@barryrobinson4575 you don't have to do this anymore. Every airsoft shop sells flat hop buckings that are flat inside already. I use the modify ryusoku flat hop bucking and flat nub and it works beautifully
@@ns_racing hi I just ordered the purple Prometheus bucking from Amped does it comes already flat on the inside as well or do I still need to do this step?
I installed a modified a maple leaf bucking into a flat hop bucking and installed a namazu flat hop nub. Worked great my WE M4 GBBR, but on my WE SCAR-L GBBR, I didn't have enough hop, had to add an F-key as a spacer between the nub and bucking. I know it's a derpy solution, but it worked.
Umbrella armory sells the Prometheus barrel rhop for 105.00. For the complete setup with the Prometheus barrel, prowin hop up, nub and everything you need to just drop it in starting at 155.00 to 165.00. It all depends on the size of barrel you need. Turn around time is 2-4 weeks though.
This is a GREAT tutorial! I'm fairly new to Airsoft (My kids got me into it). I've been playing around and learning the in's and outs of gearboxes.... I have an Umarex G36C.... I see you guys sell those. What's your experience doing a flat hop on them? I really want to turn it into a DMR.... Semi-only mod, 18" barrel.... Do the Umarex G36's take a specail hop? I see you have the prowin in M4 and AK.... The AK should also be a V.3 gearbox... is it interchangeable by any chance?
Thanks for your feedback and welcome to the sport! You can definitely install a flat hop into the G36. It utilizes a standard nub to our knowledge. When it comes to hop units for the G36, there aren't a ton out there. Prowin does make one, but I'm not 100% sure if it's compatible with the Umarex G36. For all intents and purposes it should be though. The gearbox internals are interchangeable with V3 type parts for the most part. Hope this helps!
you guys are awesome..loving the 2 tippmanns i got from you guys. lauched a few videos of what i did to them plus game play. waiting to rag out my helmet but thats out of stock.
Thanks Bro! Glad you love your two tippys! Which color are you looking for? It appears we have everything but digital woodland atm. Looks like I need to get a restock of those. Every other one is in stock though. 8) Here is a direct link for reference: ampedairsoft.com/search.php?search_query=ragnar§ion=product Let us know! 8) Thanks! Kurtis
Why did you leave some extra material on that one side. Wouldn't you want each side to be even. If this is a dumb question I'm sorry I have only been playing for a month.
Nick Shumar It doesn't adversely affect the BB if the flats on the side aren't centred on the hump of the nub. It's the flat part on the bottom that interacts with the BB. The nub needs to be trimmed to fit inside fit the barrel window. The hump on the nub gets attached attached to a pivoting arm which passes through a window in a fixed location. You cut the nub where it needs to be cut in order to fit through the window.
hi amped, i took your advise and use the purple soft bucking Prometheus with the prowin house and the fire fly nub, i have serious feed jam where the bb pull the lip up and in itself and jams the bb stuck! both my dmr and cqb does this!
Are you guys still going with the flathop these days and still think it's the way to go? What do you think about the barrels that come with one already installed?
So I watched this video a few times used a prommy purple bucking and pro win chamber. Even the prommy 6.03 tight bore barrel. To flat hop it only piece I am missing is the metal part that set in the flat hop nub.
Thank you for your feedback! If you are looking for that bar, we do have them available here: ampedairsoft.com/orga-hop-up-nub-bar/ Hope this helps! Thanks, Kurtis
on the body hopup I'll have to open a larger hole than is to be able to fit the square nub that is used in rhOP (I use a hopup of pps which is regulated without keys) sorry for the English, I use translator
When I flip the bucking inside out, and then trim it, before I put it into the hop up system do I leave it still inside out or do I flip it back to the correct way?
So hold on, for the regular tightbore you install the bucking with the original outside inwards? i.e. the marks from cutting off the ridge and nub would be outside and visible, yes?
The ridge will need shaved off so that the bucking can be rotated around so that the shaved part of the nub is not coming in contact with the BB. You will want the smooth part of the bucking to contact the bb vs the rough shaved edge for consistency purposes.
what is the point of shaving off the alignment ridge? i assume you turn the bucking back to its correct side after shaving off the bucking nub. do shaving off the ridge do anything?
I can also attest that Modify is a good company to go with, I use their barrels and buckings and I am very happy with their performance over the past two years.
Thanks a lot, you guys seem to know your stuff. I have a snow wolf barrett, and I want to flat hop it. It has an m150 spring and a madbull 6.01, so it's shooting very hot. I haven't chronoed it yet, but the previous owner said it was about 570 fps. I want to buy a PDI 6.05, and a prowin chamber, or a laylax neo strike chamber. Does the hardness of the bucking matter if you're flat hopping it? Should I flat hop a harder bucking for an AEG that's shooting this hot? What bucking would you recommend? Thanks, great video.
As far as the nub direction does the longer side go toward the end of the barrel side or does it go facing the stock of the gun? Or does it even matter?
The red one... ;) At the time of this filming in 2014 there was only 1 namazu. It is this one here: ampedairsoft.com/firefly-namazu-flat-hop-nub-with-roller-bar-red-hard/
leonard hawken Good question - the answer is typically nothing is stopping it. On my barrels I typically just put a dab of super-glue in the channel, and then use the floss tying mod to secure the bucking if it doesn't fit tight in the hop up chamber.
So i noticed you didn't turn the bucking right side out when you shaved it. Do you need to turn it back to right side out after your done taking the nub and grove out?
Yup correct. Return it to it's original orientation and then rotate it slightly so that the parts you just cut off are not in the window. This way the rough spots you just cut out don't engage the BB. Only the smooth parts of the bucking will touch the BB.
Kai A There will be too much hop or it won't work properly, the point of flat/R hop is to switch from a pointy nub inside the barrel to a flatter and longer surface making the hop more even,
***** I had a problem fitting the grey (soft) Modify bucking in several of my hopups because it's so soft it wouldn't squeeze fully into the hopunit so I would have to cut out the excess even after using some silicone spray and some white grease.
Awesome Video!! I had a question what kind of hop-up rubber would work well with .03g BBs in cold weather conditions. Had a modify hop-up rubber installed and the rubber is now completely torn up...
Pat Fenis Why only the ridge and not also the nub ? The Bucking which is shown in this Video is a Prometheus and not a Firefly, the Nub is from Firefly but not the Bucking. At 09:50 it says I have to trim of the Ridge AND the little Nub (which is normally pressed into the Barrel-window). So what do i have to do if i want to create a flat-hop setup with a Prometheus purple Bucking, a Prometheus 6.03 EG Barrel, a Firfley Namazu Nub and a ProWin ? I thought i have to trim of the Ridge AND Nub of the Prometheus purple Bucking and put it (90 degrees turned) back on the barrel ?
Fränkische Wölfe My mistake, I used the wrong terminology. I typed bucking instead of nub. You are exactly correct. To use the Namazu nub with a standard type bucking (prometheus purple included) you have to remove all of the inner protrusions from the bucking (the alignment ridge, and the bump intended for the barrel window). And Put the bucking on the barrel (turned 90 degrees from regular) so that a smooth factory finish is making contact with the bb and not the rough patch where material was removed.
So I have two questions on the flat hop nub do you have to cut one side completely and leave one with a little bit material and for the bucking do you completely trim off the guide in that little nub that's on there
speaking of pro to pleb, work on audio adjustment.. no offense. But I shouldn't have to adjust my volume at any point in the video to hear you without deafening myself from sound effects.
I got a question, why is it required t shave off the bottom to the rubber bucking? sorry if I seem to be a newb with this stuff but I recently just got into teching
Can I flat hop a armalite m4 aeg? Shoots darn well for what it is, already upgraded motor and swapped to lipo. Shot consistency isn’t always the best. Let me know!
You can flat hop any AEG that utilizes a standard hop unit. From the sounds of it, your rifle is probably your standard M4 AEG and is able to be flat hopped. Hope this helps!
Hey guys, informative video and all. I was going to purchase a tippmann. M4 and was wondering if I'm able to flat hop it, also what kind of Barrel would you recommend for it? Thanks!
Great video guys! But I have a question, would the configuration of hop up, that you guys are running, work on a katana m4? And how do you tell if a certain hop up can work for a gun?
Yes. you can. The wide bore barrel is great, and the only barrel that supports flat hop right off the shelf. Also, a flat hop nub will give you a lot better performance, so I would go for that one, too, if I was you.
Gotcha Punk Well, a wide bore barrel trades muzzle velocity for accuracy, because the BB doesn't touch the barrel as with tight bore barrels. I guess it will work with tight bores, but tight bores being more accurate because they are tighter is as much a misconception as eating fat making you fat.
Great video, I would suggest writing down the names of the parts in the description, kinda hard to know the exact names of stuff
Done and done! Parts list now in description! Thanks for the advice! -Kurtis
R-hop takes you three hours?
It takes me about 5 minutes...
TheAirsoftTech well aren't you special!!! jk jk love your channel helps me out a lot
+TheAirsoftTech How much does it cost you?
+boom_man56 I charge $25 per r-hop
+Minder Maniac Thanks!
TheAirsoftTech How much better does it make the gun? doesnt it increase the range?

I used the Promy Blue bucking and can attest it sucks.
No comment.
Yet he did't comment on mine.
Yeah prommy blue hop bucking hasn't done too well for us. The prommy purple is infinitely better than the blue from our experience. -Kurtis
Even the red Prometheus Air Seal Hop-Up Hard Type very very bad, i had problem today the gun it doesn't shot (the gearbox sound) looks like using died battery the won't go out the barely can't reach 5 meter..
I don't understand, when u flat hop does the bb float up then gradually fall or does it fly straight further compared to stock?
Check out the maxx model hop up. Im curious to see what you guys think
We love it so far. Typically we have them in stock. More are on the way currently.
thanks as always for posting, I see how to make the flat hop now, however my guns are all rhop complete and I love it. next build I will test it out. still excited to see you all here in Mississippi in January. keep in touch!
just flat hopped along with you guys, and must say that it was easier than expected. can't wait to see how it has changed the hop on my gun
Awesome! So glad this helped you out! Let us know! -Kurtis

Wait.. you keep the bucking inside-out after getting rid of the ridge and nub?
Still did nor see answer to this. Looks like they don’t turn it back

parts list??
Dova now, just get the "modify flat hop bucking" which includes nub. About 10 bucks.
The G&G Green bucking is also a good choice for this mod from what I've used.
What about the modify flat bucking with the flat nub?
So most of these items are not in stock anywhere.. what are your direct replacements you would choose for the ones that are not in stock?
Why did you leave some extra material on that one side. Wouldn't you want each side to be even. If this is a dumb question I'm sorry I have only been playing for a month.

I made one the prommy nub is to soft so I made a piece of metal to fill the void it the prommy nub.
how would i do this on an a&k svd dragunov? it has a weird hop-up
hello friend,i make one to my svd using a vsr bucking,works good
ok, cool, but what about the hop up arm? or do i just have to shave down the bucking?
on the body hopup I'll have to open a larger hole than is to be able to fit the square nub that is used in rhOP (I use a hopup of pps which is regulated without keys) sorry for the English, I use translator
awesome, did you drill out a bigger hole?
not friend, I will try to do it this week, if it works post a comment and try to send you photos
I used the prommy blue with an s-hopped barrel and it works great. Think it might work even better with a hard spacer.
Why do you need to cut the nub wings off?
So if we have only a tight bore barrel we need to cut the ridges then put the bucking on inside out?
Is the roller bar necessary? My nub did not come with one
How about the ryusoku flat hop kit I’ve heard good things about those
Just ordered this about 10 minutes ago. I'll get back to you in a few weeks with my results!
@@sn33kydud3 Awesome! They actually work pretty good. Lots of our customers like them. Thanks!
When I flip the bucking inside out, and then trim it, before I put it into the hop up system do I leave it still inside out or do I flip it back to the correct way?
Cade Norton Late I know, the bucking stays inside out.
LegoMotion you're a fucking idiot.
Nathan Elmert sooooo does he leave it inside out?
How do you know what kind of hop up your gun uses
To which side does the little lip you left on the nub face, toward the arm or away?
Are the Prometheus nubs wider than the firefly? Are they still thin enough to fit in a prowin?
How about the Modify flat bucking ? the hard one...
do I need a roller bar for the prometheus nub?
Do you have to cut the nub?
Approximately how will a flat hopped purple bucking last?
What does flat hopping do to make the gun better
would this work in a H&K UMP Elite
Are they the same installation as a regular hop?
I saw a video of someone filling in the space in the barrel with modulable glue, but yall just put the bucking back on, any thoughts?
Here is the video for reference: ua-cam.com/video/Xj6MvuGVUO0/v-deo.html
Hey amped. Could you please tell me if a flat hop will work with a miracle barrel?
So hold on, for the regular tightbore you install the bucking with the original outside inwards? i.e. the marks from cutting off the ridge and nub would be outside and visible, yes?
+Juke Airsoft Realized it a couple minutes after asking. The feed lips would be reversed.
Is the modification to the nub the same for all hop windows?
For the most part, you will need to adjust the cut of the nub to match your window.
How do you know how to position the inner barrel in the Chamber?
just found this video & channel subbed and hit the gong. After this video when I go to your channel you better still make vids
We appreciate it! We will be making more videos. We have been unable to to with COVID going on.
Can you leave nubs uncut? Or does it depend on barrel window size, just for clarification.
ok so on that last part you leave the bucking inside out when you install it in you hopup ?
Yeah I'm confused by this part too?
no, you flip it back and rotate it 90 degrees so any imperfections from the trim aren't in the hop up window
Can I get all of this on amped airsoft?
Michael Anthony Florentino ya
Why do you have to shave off the ridge, and do you have to remove it fully or just on where the hop up window lies
The ridge will need shaved off so that the bucking can be rotated around so that the shaved part of the nub is not coming in contact with the BB. You will want the smooth part of the bucking to contact the bb vs the rough shaved edge for consistency purposes.
Can you use an r hopped barrel with a flat nub?
what is the point of shaving off the alignment ridge? i assume you turn the bucking back to its correct side after shaving off the bucking nub. do shaving off the ridge do anything?
Why do you have to cut the nub? Isn't the nub window size standardized for all hop up units?
Ricardo Bonfim it's because of the flat hop nub being longer, Anthony says it video. :)
My friend reccomended me to buy a "Modify Flat Hopup bucking"
Is it any good
It is also a good bucking. 8) They are very popular. A matter of fact, we have several on the way for a restock! Should be here mid next week. -Kurtis
I can also attest that Modify is a good company to go with, I use their barrels and buckings and I am very happy with their performance over the past two years.

Gotcha! That makes sense. 8) Thank you!
What does the roller bar do?
I have a modify flat hop and nub have you guys tried that out?
can you list all the products used in the video a link would be great thanks!
Quick one, but once you remove the insides of the bucking what's stopping the air from leaving out the thin channel on the barrel?
Tia
leonard hawken Good question - the answer is typically nothing is stopping it. On my barrels I typically just put a dab of super-glue in the channel, and then use the floss tying mod to secure the bucking if it doesn't fit tight in the hop up chamber.
So i noticed you didn't turn the bucking right side out when you shaved it. Do you need to turn it back to right side out after your done taking the nub and grove out?
they dint modify it.... they where saying if you use different inner barrel ul have to shave off.... but if u use orga u dnt have to....
Mandirigma14689 thats not what i was asking but i ok....
Pretty sure you turn it right side out again
After you trip the ridge and bump off do you need to right side out the bucking?
Yup correct. Return it to it's original orientation and then rotate it slightly so that the parts you just cut off are not in the window. This way the rough spots you just cut out don't engage the BB. Only the smooth parts of the bucking will touch the BB.
Do I have to shave off the nub on a Prometheus barrel?
Yes
What happens if you don't?
Kai A There will be too much hop or it won't work properly, the point of flat/R hop is to switch from a pointy nub inside the barrel to a flatter and longer surface making the hop more even,
Are there any Buckings setup for Flat Hop Nubs already using regular barrels? I mean no trimming or removal of material required?
***** Which version of the Modify is the one with no hop mound?
***** I had a problem fitting the grey (soft) Modify bucking in several of my hopups because it's so soft it wouldn't squeeze fully into the hopunit so I would have to cut out the excess even after using some silicone spray and some white grease.
Are you using a MadBull 3-1 chamber? If so stop. I had the same issue.
No XCR, LCT AK's and G&G GK5C.
Must be the bucking then
Awesome Video!! I had a question what kind of hop-up rubber would work well with .03g BBs in cold weather conditions. Had a modify hop-up rubber installed and the rubber is now completely torn up...
G&G green or Prometheus purple if you have the moneeyyzz
cool, but the same rule applies, cut off the bump and ridge that is on the hob up rubber, right?
Shockwave1985 only remove the ridge if you are using a flat-hop nub such as the Firefly one pictured in this video.
Pat Fenis Why only the ridge and not also the nub ?
The Bucking which is shown in this Video is a Prometheus and not a Firefly, the Nub is from Firefly but not the Bucking.
At 09:50 it says I have to trim of the Ridge AND the little Nub (which is normally pressed into the Barrel-window).
So what do i have to do if i want to create a flat-hop setup with a Prometheus purple Bucking, a Prometheus 6.03 EG Barrel, a Firfley Namazu Nub and a ProWin ?
I thought i have to trim of the Ridge AND Nub of the Prometheus purple Bucking and put it (90 degrees turned) back on the barrel ?
Fränkische Wölfe My mistake, I used the wrong terminology. I typed bucking instead of nub.
You are exactly correct. To use the Namazu nub with a standard type bucking (prometheus purple included) you have to remove all of the inner protrusions from the bucking (the alignment ridge, and the bump intended for the barrel window). And Put the bucking on the barrel (turned 90 degrees from regular) so that a smooth factory finish is making contact with the bb and not the rough patch where material was removed.
good stuff! Really helpful info since I am running this exact setup on my Polarstar :)
Will this work with a miracle barrel?
what is the purpose of cutting the nub?

speaking of pro to pleb, work on audio adjustment.. no offense. But I shouldn't have to adjust my volume at any point in the video to hear you without deafening myself from sound effects.
Hey guys, great video. Just wondering what your second choice would be instead of the Firefly nub? It's just kind of expensive. Thanks
I got a question, why is it required t shave off the bottom to the rubber bucking? sorry if I seem to be a newb with this stuff but I recently just got into teching
please let the other guy talk more!
It Is just awkward.
King Butter Pat maybe he don’t want to lol
Thumbs up just for the intro animation XD
Would you recommend flat hopping the Tippman or just getting the Prommy purp bucking and the TDC drop in mod for the Tippman?
Amped Airsoft can you link me the products used in the video? all except the barrel.
I'm new at this so take it easy. What exactly is the benefit of upgrading to a flat hop or an R hop for that matter.
You can maintain more fps while adding hop up
+Milsim Tac okay will it add accuracy? That is my main concern really since my local FPS limit is 400 and I'm nearly topping.
can you not mod the bucking with a tightbore angel custom barrel?
Would the process be the same on a G36 hopup?
where do you get a roller bar?? or does it come with the prowin
+Hunter DeRise It comes with the Namazu Flat Hop Up Nub
ok thanks
It doesnt fit in my ares amoeba am 014, do you know a hop up house that will?
Hi... great tutorial but I have question, from where i can get this little thing "firefly..."?? ... thx for answer. :)
i live in cold conditions so will the g&g green bucking work for this
Sure will!
I just flat hopped my Krytac and the difference is night and day!
Does this increase the range of an aeg significantly?
I saw you guys at ballahack recently! Great work! Keep it up!
have you guys tried out the Orga v shape hop up nub? if so, how did it perform?
Can I flat hop a armalite m4 aeg? Shoots darn well for what it is, already upgraded motor and swapped to lipo. Shot consistency isn’t always the best. Let me know!
You can flat hop any AEG that utilizes a standard hop unit. From the sounds of it, your rifle is probably your standard M4 AEG and is able to be flat hopped. Hope this helps!
Amped Airsoft thanks! Will try it out!
@@aaronp8902 Sounds like a plan! Best of luck!
What size bore do you guys recommend for the orga barrel
This is unrealated but would the polarstar jack in a arp 556 be a good combo
As far as being able to be installed, yes. However, the rest is personal preference on whether it's a good combo for you. Hope this helps. -Kurtis
Hey guys, informative video and all. I was going to purchase a tippmann. M4 and was wondering if I'm able to flat hop it, also what kind of Barrel would you recommend for it? Thanks!
Great video guys! But I have a question, would the configuration of hop up, that you guys are running, work on a katana m4? And how do you tell if a certain hop up can work for a gun?
Can you just use the prowin hop up and the purple bucking?
Yes. you can. The wide bore barrel is great, and the only barrel that supports flat hop right off the shelf. Also, a flat hop nub will give you a lot better performance, so I would go for that one, too, if I was you.
What is the advantages of a wide bore barrel ? Would it work with a 6.00 or 6.05 Orga barrel ?
Gotcha Punk Well, a wide bore barrel trades muzzle velocity for accuracy, because the BB doesn't touch the barrel as with tight bore barrels. I guess it will work with tight bores, but tight bores being more accurate because they are tighter is as much a misconception as eating fat making you fat.
