Och! Frank,
That's a Beauty! MATO may make them all metal but I think it takes a little work ( me and some other guys can testify to this ) to get them to perform like the Taigen right out of the box. It looks like a solid runner. I Love that sputter, sputter crank, sound!
regards,
Painless

Very tastefully kitted out, Frank

Apart from the IBU, and the tied on extras...is this pretty much how the Taigen M4A3 76mm appears when you buy it? If so, I have to say I'm impressed with the paint job (oil stains etc..,), unless, of course, it's part of the usual Frankie enhancement. In any event, it's a real looker...

She came from Dave unpainted...they're available painted in the US but they're dearer and subject to customs charges...she was fully wired up to take a Taigen control board...I changed the Taigen recoil and flash unit to a servo and LED...
