On the KWA G19 I have a problem with my bbs curving left after about 50 ft i'm using some low grade .2s so would some higher quality bbs help or maybe heavier ones? Is the Hurricane kit worth the money and doesn't the G19 come with an upgraded valve, but the hurricanes are better?
But (from what i understand) there are some remarkable similiarities between the KWA and KSC series Glocks
If so, is the hop-up mechanism adjusted the same way?
As apparently it is to do with the rubber (hopup) itself.(hearsay), as apparently there are deformities (occasionally) with the rubber. Such as being too much hopup slightly on one side of the inner barrel (on mine, it appears to be the 'left side' (looking towards the bb exit), which causes the bbs (sometimes) on my KSC G17 to swing to the left (is that the direction of yours?).
It just needs removing, BUT to do that, you must (apparently) dissasemble the hop-up unit.
(For that info, im trying to find the link where a 'how to' is shown, but it is in japanese, so you will need a translation engine (ala bablefish!)..
Question....
What weight BBs are you using.Apparently, with the strong 'hop' of the KSC series, they are recommended to have .25g BBs used. I use .2s , but i will be switching to .25s. I will see the difference is myself.

I'm using .2s right now, and my bbs also curve left, so will the .25s solve that? I was asking about the hurricane kit seperate from the shooting problem. Wedge have had any luck on that link?

is the place to see.
but fire up your engine to read it (your language one)..
This is a GREAT website. Full of info.
However, our (Aucklands) airsoft fixerupper, recommends that if this mod is done, then the rubber should be turned inside out to do so. Less chance of damaging something else.
And I have yet to screw up the courage to pull apart my G17 to do that to it yet. (but i will..)

I can't find this piece of rubber you are talking about, where is it? I'm going to try some .25s I think and then see how it is.

Try cleaning your barrel. The problem may be something as simple as silicone buildup in the barrel from having sat on one side for so long in the box.
