BTW, I received the beast and it works great! Only problem so far is the fuse that blew but it is easy to replace! There is no manual with the gun and you have to download one from the Echo1 website... Lame for a 1000$ gun... Plus, the manual is in non-printable format!!

I'm tempted to buy a second mag unit to make myself a smaller ammo bag using a USGI 50 rounds 'nutsack' as a base... The current mag box is bulky and sticks out far to the left...

I removed the front rails on mine to make it look more like the original FN MAG and the front sling-hook as well so it would fit my Ferret turret... It fits like a glove and makes the armored car looks so much better!! It is installed and removed in less than a minute too...

The range is quite good with 0.25g bb's... More then 50 meters. Accuracy is still OK at 50m. I still have to try it in a game! Probably in Sherbrooke in the coming weeks!

I'll need a big case to house the M240! There are some at Prefair in Beloeil that are almost big enough to house it without removing the barrel but not quite...

All in all, a goog buy so far!
