No... its not that way. The Maple if leaf is a VSR10/GBB pistol rubber, but the hop-up bump is so big that it doesn't fit in the stock barrel hop-up window. Just like the A+. Upgrade barrels have an open window like GBB pistols barrels, which will fit the Maple Leaf bump perfectly. Here's a few pictures:
Stock window (well, this is an upgrade barrel, so it has a larger window than the stock barrel, but you get the idea)
Open cut barrel:
The second barrel will fit any VSR10/GBB hop-up rubber, the other one will not.
This is what the maple leaf rubber looks like inside, and why it doesn't fit in the first barrel:
Its this very large bump that makes it such a good rubber. It lifts heavy BBs really easily and works almost as well as a r-hop.
