if your talking from stock the only thing i would upgrade is your feedneck to something that clamps (only on the grounds your loader doesnt fit it)

apart from that the only other thing i would swap is the board to get diferent firing modes if you will play milleniums/PA

The PM5 is generally a nice piece of kit from stock mate

the stock barrel considering is a pretty sweet barrel - an extra 2" aint going to make any difference performance wise

A 14" would help accuracy slightly over a 12", but a 12" is fine as long as you have a good paint to bore match. A cheap UL frame would be good if you can find one - Decent trigger, board modes and it'll shave the weight of the marker down.

New LPR and bolt are also a good move to improve efficiency.

As LemondeX stated, the UL frame is probably your best bet after a clamping feed-neck.

Keep an eye on the forums for parts.

You dont need a upgraded bolt and LPR. Proto's hyper 2 is great already.

Only things you might want to have is. a Ultralite frame and mybe a Dye ul barrel.

If you want to improve performance of the gun, have a dye tech look at it to make usre the setting are correct.
