The barrel is awesome and super accurate. Its heavy compared to my a1,a2 and carbines, but this in just a short amount of time has become my go to rifle. I really enjoy shooting this. I really like the TA31, but compared to my TA33, i prefer the amber chevron and the lack of eye relief is noticable. The ability to focus up close with the 33 is waaay better too. That said the extra field of view is nice and the extra 1x does make enough of a difference to notice. Still the 31 is awesome and its very much at home on this rifle. The barrel is up to the task, the lpk, well...
I did the naval jelly trick on the bcg and lpk to turn the black to a grn gray. I think it looks better. Took me some time to decide to spray it, sooo glad i did.
Im really happy with how it turned out, enjoy the pics!
