Yeah, the heat shield doesn't really seem useful in airsoft. I also don't really see a need for the forward rails (they are just on the sides) but it would be cool to mount a really big tac light--just because.

i would love to see a wood stock and all the rails gone. Make it look like a C6

Or mount grenade launchers on each side.

looks sexy as hell!

after further looking into the gun, I have to say $1000 in canada is worth it. IF i had the money to burn I would.

Echo1 has already released all of the parts separately, so you can buy an entire spare magazine, just the magazine servo, the aluminum body, etc. It took A&K two years to start releasing spare magazines for their M60 line.

Seeing as these are $750 in the US, $1000 for this gun to my door from a Canadian retailer sounds very fair.

Also its an echo1 so you know its going to be good quality.

I have heard nothing but good about this gun from people that have it

do we know if there will be aftermarket part support? i love it all but the plastic of the stock looks reallllly chintzy.

hm, as an aside, does anyone know if real steel m240 wooden stocks are available anywhere?

There's no picture showing up on my iPhone, but maybe here:

$1000CAD for a $750USD gun?

Unless it's being brought in at over 430fps nobody is going to waste their time bringing that in, you'll have to get it yourself.

Shouldn't be a problem, as it comes with a 400FPS spring installed and a 480 as well. The retailer could just install the 480 FPS spring in it.

I'm just waiting for the magic words :)

Seeing as the thread was started and price was chosen by a retailer I do believe your point is invalid.

You think that'd support a surefire Hellfire?

Sorry for the slight necro,but has anyone bought one of these up here yet,
And if so,how decent does it shoot?:cool:
