Sniper Mechanics VSR/GBB Flamingo NOIR Bucking
The Flamingo Noir takes the proven Flamingo design from Sniper Mechanics and makes it in an NBR-based material instead of silicone. Players asked for it, and Sniper Mechanics' own testing showed the tougher material suits higher power and higher rate-of-fire builds.
It's very durable and seals well, so it's a great match for GBB rifles, whose nozzles move more aggressively, as well as high-power VSR and GBB setups. It fits any rifle or pistol that takes a VSR/GBB style bucking.
Choosing 60A or 70A
The 60A works perfectly well in most builds under 2.5 joules. For GBB rifles or high-power builds, the 70A may give more consistent results.
Allow it to bed in
Because the material is so tough, give it a bedding-in period of around 100 to 150 rounds, or a few magazines. That lets it conform to your chamber and nub before you judge its performance.
Barrel compatibility
- Suitable: Maple Leaf Crazy Jet and 6.02 series GBB/VSR barrels, and unbridged TNT, LayLax, Action Army and Lambda barrels
- Genuine PDI unbridged: suitable, but very tight, and needs an Omega nub because of the small window
- EdGi unbridged: varies with the depth and length of the window
- PDI clones: untested
- Most stock barrels, especially WE and Tokyo Marui: windows are usually too narrow
Like all Flamingos, it's designed for unbridged GBB/VSR cut barrels only.
Fitting tips
- Choose a barrel with a large hop window
- Use a concave nub in rifles, such as a T-nub, bridge nub, H nub, Gunsmithy TDC or Maple Leaf Omega nub
- In pistols, a V-shaped arm is accurate, and a Hadron H-plate or Maple Leaf key gives the most range
- Add PTFE tape to the rear of the bucking
- Lubricate the outside before fitting, as the material grips the chamber
