[align=center]Comes with two mid caps and one high cap. It has a Version 1 gearbox, yes a VERSION 1 gearbox. The person I bought it from says it is CQB rated, but I plan on putting in an M120 and making sure the gearbox is cleaned, shimmed, and lubed properly.[/align]

careful, it may not be able to handle a m120 spring for too long. The stock motor is pretty weak over all.

Thank you for the heads up. I want to upgrade the motor as well, but with it being a V1 gearbox, it may be difficult.

After some browsing, it looks like the EG560 it comes with wouldn't cope too well with a spring over an M100, and though it's axle would be considered a short type, the length of the motor is shorter than others and being it's mounted in the shell itself, I see no easy way of replacing the motor with a more standardized size of any type :'(.

ARES made one. Of course, they are about $400, but it looks awsome.

Ares rebrands, I want to find out who really makes the Tavor. If someone like JG or Dboys would come out with one that would be so awesome, they are the prettiest assault rifle ever.

Evike had it for 500. I saw one site where it was 385 though.

After breaking the rifle down to the gear box, I realized that today. I am going to replace the current spring with an M100 that I am getting from Ares. I talked to the gun smith from precision and he said a few V2 parts are compatible. So be on the lookout for updates.
