: I've read about how ported barrels and long barrels are bad for lp guns. With a cocker at 200-250 psi, would a 12 inch boomstick be efficient? : Now, I've been seeing alot of light hammers for high speed electro guns, I thought heavy hammers with light main springs are the way to go so you can lower the ram pressure and reduce stress, ball chopping, and "recoil". I also read that lp cocking and/or heavy hammers don't slow the cycling down at all because it wasn't the dead weight that causes the slow down, but the heavy springing. So, I concluded that heavy hammer + light spring would be faster than light hammer + heavy spring. Whats the deal? : Thanks. I haven't heard that ported barrels were not good with lp cockers. But, I have an ANS cocker that runs at 225psi. I use a 14in. Dye Boomstick with it, and it is extremely accurate, and cycles very fast.
