Hop-up (airsoft)
Hop-up {{Dead link, date=August 2024 , bot=InternetArchiveBot , fix-attempted=yes is the backspin put on airsoft pellets and BBs to increase their range via the Magnus effect. Hop-up devices apply backspin to the projectile reducing the air pressure on its top side. This causes the plastic pellet to fall less over a given distance than it would without the spin applied, extending the effective range of the weapon without increasing velocity. It allows the mechanism to shoot BBs in a curved trajectory. In airsoft guns, this is usually implemented as a small rubber protrusion, called a bucking, into the path of the projectile, on the top of the barrel. The bucking momentarily hinders the top side of the projectile, imparting a backspin that can exceed 1,000 rpm (17 rotations per second). This is usually adjustable through means of a dial or set screw so that the effect can be tuned to suit the weight and speed of the projectile and each player's preference. The primary cause of ...
