Hi there

I don't think you can put a rail on the CM handguard, b/c it's designed to split into 2 halves to fit the battery. I think you should stick with an 8.4V battery. There's nothing wrong with 600rpm, but I think you'll get more like 700 anyway. Yeah, a 9.6V will give you a higher ROF, but it will also wear out your gearbox faster, and may cause a failure, such as shredding your piston teeth, knackering your tappet plate spring, or chewing up your piston head O-ring. It's also possible that the gun will not feed BB's smoothly at a higher ROF without modifying the sector gear with a tappet plate delayer.

I realise that all this may sound like gobbledegook and, frankly, until such time as it doesn't, you're best sticking to manufacturers' recommendations. Still, if you must, here is a VP 9.6V. And yeah, the CM will come with a Mini Tamiya connector.

 
I think it may fit on the handguard, because there's holes on the bottom.

Can you reccomend a good 8.4v?

 
You may be right. If it's important for you to know before you buy, make a thread to ask if anyone knows in the general discussion section. I already linked to an 8.4V VP above.

 
@Blackbeard, I have got some mags and a handguard, pm me and

If you get a 9.6 and you are worried then use semi only
