Look what the mailman dropped off - Echo 1 P90
Was home for lunch, and the nice Canada Post dude rang the doorbell to being me the latest addition to my collection.
Haven't had time to try it out as I had to get back to work quickly, but it looks and feels excellent. Top quality build as far as I can tell after 5 minutes with it. Will post some pics taken with my actual camera instead of iPhone later on. The battery is on the charger right now and I'll get to give it a test fire later tonight. I'll report back with my findings...

The upper receiver is all metal, the rest of the body is plastic, as with the real steel. The metal feels nice and solid. I removed the upper and examined it quickly. Looks very solid from what I could tell. I didn't hear any creaks in the plastic and didn't notice apparent seam lines or anything. But only had it in hand for about 5 minutes, so couldn't really get much detail. I'll post more details when I get a chance to play with it more and examine it closer in better lighting.

Lucky guy, it looks really nice. I wouldn't mind expanding my collection to include something like this one day.

Jesus, didn't know you ordered one of these, or that they were available for order at all.

Metal upper P90 (hopefully) for cheap. Price? |

When you open it up, keep your eyes open for signs of whoever made it for Echo1 please. I must say I'm intrigued to find out who makes this thing.

Unless my supplier feels like piping in with details (and he shouldn't in this public thread), I'll leave it at saying that it was significantly cheaper than a TM - along the lines of what you'd pay for a regular JG.

Not to be a dick, but perhaps reading some of my previous posts might clear up some questions...
And yes, 100% TM clone, only with a metal receiver.
