Classification of GBB/VSR Hop-up Buckings by Maple Leaf
DECEPTICONS (DELTA) The patch has a diamond shape, making this bucking ideal for achieving higher accuracy. The first model, called MONSTER DELTA, was available only in durable black. The DECEPTICONS models are now color-coded by hardness for easier identification. In 2023, this model was upgraded for better sealing. It is also available in a silicone version, suitable for cold weather.
AUTOBOT (DIAMOND) The patch has a delta-arrow shape, making this bucking ideal for achieving greater range. This is an improved version of the original MONSTER DIAMOND, which was available only in durable black. Like DECEPTICONS (accuracy), the AUTOBOT (range) models are color-coded by hardness. In 2023, the model was redesigned for improved sealing. It is also available in a silicone version, suitable for cold weather.
SUPER This model combines the best features of AUTOBOT and DECEPTICONS, offering the best balance between accuracy and range. It is designed for heavier BBs, making it suitable for high-performance sniper rifles.
MR HOP Also known as Maple R-Hop, this bucking combines the advantages of R-Hop systems with the simplicity of traditional bucking installation. This model, also called Pan Hop (Mr. Hop), has a wide patch that covers most of the hop-up window. This provides much greater spin, resulting in significantly increased range. However, this system requires heavier BBs. For instance, if you currently use 0.30g BBs for a muzzle velocity of 125 m/s, you may need to switch to 0.36g BBs. While less accurate than the AUTOBOT model, it offers better range and can hop heavier BBs, compensating for any loss of accuracy. It is also available in a silicone version for cold weather.
WONDER This innovative bucking with a W-shaped diamond patch focuses on extra precision, as the two guiding tips help center the BB better. This bucking offers higher precision than the DECEPTICONS model but slightly less range. If you’re a player who values reliable shots over long-range sniping, WONDER bucking is a great choice.
