AEG 6.02mm

AEG 6.02mm - optimal balance between precision and reliability

A 6.02mm precision barrel offers an ideal compromise between accuracy, consistency and ease of maintenance. Thanks to the light tightbore diameter, air loss is minimised while the barrel is less sensitive to contamination than narrower variants. As a result, a 6.02mm model delivers excellent performance in a variety of playing environments, from intensive CQB to long sessions in woodland. This category is a valuable upgrade for players who want to take their AEG to a higher level of performance without compromising on durability.

Why choose AEG 6.02mm

A 6.02mm barrel increases shot consistency by providing tighter BB guidance, but retains sufficient tolerance to keep performance stable in varying conditions. This makes this diameter particularly suitable for players who want to achieve top performance with less maintenance sensitivity than an ultra-tight barrel. Thanks to its balance of precision, durability and ease of use, a 6.02mm barrel is a reliable choice for both technical upgrades and versatile field configurations.
