It's more of an 'enthusiasts' gun rather than a 'players' one - much like G&G's C7 offering (Canada's service rifle). Don't get me wrong - I'm sure it's a very decent performer with the G2 gearbox and would be great in more expansive playing areas. But really it's intended for a small niche set of people that have specific military load outs (for LARPsoft or just enjoy collecting) and want the correct replica rifle to complement the rest of their gear. That, and I'm pretty sure that G&G sold these to the Taiwanese armed forces as training rifles.

Buys a very specific Taiwanese service rifle that has a number of unique details that sets it apart from generic BBwarz M4s. Wants to convert it into a generic BBwarz M4-ish thing by removing some of the key components that make it unique. Got it.....*sigh* To answer your question - the gun appears to have standard threads for the barrel nut from looking at G&G's parts diagram. Who knows if the receiver rail will line up with whatever hand guard you want to fit. There will likely be some gaps at the front of the upper receiver because of the alignment notches for the standard hand guard attachment. All in all - it will probably look gash and ruin the gun's appearance, but hey ho, you'll be able to use it in CQB. It'll likely also be over-volumised because of the stock cylinder porting and shorter inner barrel. But honestly - if you exclusively play CQB - you should have bought a more appropriate gun, price be damned. In an era where Double Eagle 904's can be had for £104 (current Patrolbase sale), buying a gun at a 'great price' and trying to convert it into something it wasn't intended for is a false economy. You will need to buy a new Inner barrel, Outer barrel and hand guard. Then hope it all fits. Best of luck.

Gotta love a G11 - and all the other '90/'00 'space guns' for the ACR/OICW programs. I'm starting to gather reference pictures for a Steyr ACR - mainly to test my surface modelling skills with more complex shapes. Gonna be a pig to model with my limited 'skillz'. I'm also taking a crack at the original HK XM8 concept art (by an Audi designer!) when they figured that the G36 wasn't sexy enough for the yanks. It's batshit bonkers - but I like it.

The MR-C is structurally complete. Just needs filling, sanding, filling, sanding...etc...then eventually painting.

Finally started a Crye MR-C build. I've been wanting to make one of these ever since GRAW came out on the Xbox 360 - 3D printing (and affordable design software) is now making happen after being on the back-burner for over a decade. It's just a wall-hanger/prop. Maybe one day I'll make a functional Airsoft gun but I'm not too bothered on that front. Still have a good dozen hours of printing, then numerous more hours of sanding, filling and painting. Stitch bitches should note this takes design elements from the two mock-ups I have found in my searches, and Crye's own low-res 3d renderings (they all differ slightly), along with some small creative liberties taken on my part (i.e trigger and ambi fire selector).

Surely it's worth a punt for less than £20 posted?

The only assumption I'm going to make is that you are not going to get along with other members of this forum with that kind of attitude. This isn't Discord or Facebook. Your first post is of a 'what am bestest m4?' variety - something that we have seen 1000x over on these forums. Your nebulous question immediately rings alarm bells and whilst the delivery of the UKARA advice above was slightly clumsy, it is somewhat understandable given that most who ask these things still live at home with mummy and daddy, and are looking to write their airsoft xmas list to Santa. Try introducing yourself on the forums - there is an entire section dedicated to it here.

I quite liked the look of it until I saw that changing the battery was a complete ballache.

From @ak2m4

Yes - I think 7.4v with a change of gear ratios is probably a good way to go.

Ok - I get it now. Slapped into one of my guns (ICS M4, Stock 18:1 gears, Perun Hybrid with AB disabled). No modifications needed - straight drop-in. Impressive. Most Impressive. Been spamming the trigger fairly hard on an 11.1v for giggles and the motor is cold, as is the wiring and the battery. Performance on 7.4 and 11.1 is fairly similar in Semi. Can't comment on long term reliability (obvs), but as a drop-in upgrade for a bone stock gun, it certainly seems to give a trigger responsiveness and ROF performance that will keep 95% of players very happy.

Alright - let's see what all the fuss is about...

My more pressing question - is TM making a Howa Type 20? That would be pretty amazeballs if they were. Not been following Airsoft developments quite so closely lately, so the answer might be already be common knowledge.
