It would be interesting if mil spec hand guards actually fits in place of the stock plastic ones.

If you could regulate HPA down to <100psi, I am pretty sure you can boost the efficiency for more shot from a smaller tank.
Hm... wonder if anyone can measure the buffer tube w/ calipers and get some exact measurements. Also wondering if its possible to replace the buffer tube w/ a real milspec one.

Think if they did that, it'd pretty much be something closer to the modified WE/WA M4's running off an HPA line. I'm still quite curious about the recoil though, found a very good recoil comparison vid on a facebook group for tippmann users but really need to get one in hand to try it I guess.

Video for anyone's that interested.
