Yes, Jofaur, but he wants to convert the Airsoft system to IR/recoil- and this involved replacing the Airsoft gun with a complete IR system.Clearly for battling, the mushroom and associated wiring and LED will also be needed.

the taigen recoil unit is the same for every tank it just has different mounting plates but from what i gather is it to big for a kv1 turret so they use the old heng long recoil unit

this 1 which is crap

it also requires a different barrel the one with a screw thread on the recoil end
you might be better off getting a mako board and clark recoil unit
