Torro KV-1 to taigen recoil

Post by wyvern »

Hi,

I have a Torro KV-1 (HL model with IR) that I would like to fit with a taigen recoil to my rx-18. Has anyone done this? And are there any issues with the recoil fitting in the turret? I don't mind a bit of modding.

Cheers

Guy

Hey. I did the same some time ago. It requires quite a bit of fiddling around in the turret, but it can definetly be done :)
Bade a plastic plate that I would attach the recoil unit to and then attached that plate in the turret.

I can see the pictures if I click on the first link. I can then scroll through them all.

Weird, I get nothing on either.
It's stopped working for me now. Weird.
