the body is the same black body, the upper receiver is the restricted part on the p90... I think it's just a bad cast, possibly the mold was pulled right off the TM version as the texture across the body is not uniform, it's bordering smoother/shiny on some parts where the rest is matte and texturized. Though it could also be from temperature variation when the mold was injected with plastic to create the half, I think I read somewhere that too hot or too cold can produce shiny vs matte look.

The material of the body is definitely not the same as the TM one, the TM body seems a bit softer and more flexible, while the CA is harder and feels more brittle. Since this is a brand new gun though, I can't say whether they've changed anything from older models of CAp90, and the TM I have is a frankengun that still refuses to work properly.

Fit and finish even on the old TM frankengun parts are definitely better than CA The front end of the CA body has some creak and twist, while the TM is solid.
