Oh and I got a 24" LCD, and they're still too big on the res I view em on. It's all good, I'd rather see all the extra detail.

Still I'm disappointed they copied the TM dinky bolt.
I figured I'd post some nice large pics with close detail. Yeah, some will have problems viewing the whole pic, but that's what they made scroll bars for, right? lol

And yeah, I wish they would have made a heavier duty bolt. With the level of realism that the rest of the gun is made to, I think they could have done better here. But it's a minor complaint since the bolt has no real function, but still, a steel bolt of a better design would have been nice.

However, stock, the thing opens just a touch over 2cm which makes it hard to get to the hopup adjustment. I had to cut a bit off the end and grind a groove into it in order to get it to move all the way (details and pics in my review of the gun in the reviews section). Now it works well and has a nice snappy sound when released. Overall, the sounds the gun makes when you move its parts, insert or remove the mag, etc sound so real that you almost forget you're holding an airsoft gun until you pull the trigger. I couldn't be happier with this gun.

It'll get its wear and tear in good time. I've been working the selector switch up and down like crazy in inserting and removing the mag in order to give those the 'wear and tear' treatment. Needless to say, blued steel is pretty resilient, making it take a while to get that worn-in look. The rest of the gun will get its wear and tear through use. I plan to put together a middle eastern or Afghani fighter loadout in the future, so this gun will fit that loadout well.
