I was looking at the features listed for the Matorro King Tiger and something did not add up,they state 6mmfire function,barrel flash,and recoil? Does anyone have one of these tanks? How about a post on this brand of King Tiger,and if in fact they have all three functions I would like to see how they designed their Gun.

Hi Sax the "recoil " function is a twitch of the tracks like the HL tanks do. It's not the barrel that recoils as it's fitted to a standard airsoft unit. As to the other functions much the same as any S&S ( airsoft ) Heng Long tank. Hope this helps

HI,kINGTIGER Creeping Death makes and sells a TIGER1 TURRET for about 110.00us,I have their turret on my Tiger1.They claim 170FPS and the recoil is timed to happen at the same time the gun fires,thy are working on a new gun for paintball ammo that is said ti fire at 240fps.I have spent three months working with Shelby@creepingdeath to develope a turret that works with Heng Long I/R AND tank recoil.I have not tested the latest gun because of the paint work build that is going on in tips and tricks by OZ.If you go to their web site it still describes the gun system now available in the CUSTOM TIGER1 THEY MARKET.Thier are a few guys like me that have their turret on our tigers,mine is a one off that developed first due to malfuction of their basic system,then developed into the turret I have now,will be posting my completed TIGER SOON.SAX

No I don't have that date yet,I have a standing order for the first GUN.Hopefully it will be soon,this would really bring a new level of compatition to this hobby,and I forgot to mention the other element of the old and new system is a laser mg for sighting.Point the gun while holding the mg button,when the dop is on target send a 6mm bb or soon 6mm paintball.This could well be the best summer for tanking battle yet.SAX

I'm curious about the creeping death turret. I am going to pick one up and try to upgrade it using my technique. So maybe 240fps will be possible

I hope it's the best summer yet. I've been hearing about this new turret and waiting to get one to try it out since last summer. In the meantime, I'll get one of TJM's. That way, I'll eventually have one of each to compare (at least in terms of the gun's shooting power).

BB paint ammo is readily available you don’t have to have anything special to fire them but they do have a habit of bursting in the gun this can block the gun, as for firing anything including paint which can still hurt if you live in England this turret may fall under the VCR bill so be careful where you fire it and defiantly not in a public place
