Sure, it'll reach you if Customs don't see it or doesn't bother with it, which mostly never happen with airmail.

Congrats man! That's one fine replica of a performer, else SF wouldn't stick with it. Is an HPA mod on the way, and also optics?

I will run it stock until the gears/piston/trigger contacts burn out, then I will wolverine hydra hpa this babe. I also have a micro-T1 red dot sight in the mail that I will use with this. In other news, the army training centre in Indiana is running a background check on me so I can play at Op: Homeland II hosted by Operation Lion Claws. Apparently, they have never had a non-US citizen participate before. Weird.

All the best, hope you get in. I'm pretty sure the Army here haven't even heard about Airsoft.

I'm surprised you giving the electrics atleast a chance to burn out given how hooked you are to hpa. You could've given it a more authentic feel with mars or meprolight sight.

Maybe that's the key, if Airsoft was introduced as a training tool for armed forces and law enforcement institutions, that will clear some fog surrounding it. US armed forces and law enforcement specifically uses airsoft as a training tool because then they can have real time force on force training.
From what I've heard from folks who have a Tavor, the replica Mars sight is poop and they end up replacing it. Not all fields have HPA fill stations and I sometimes find myself out of air in the middle of the game. Its nice to have a backup.

Why don't you go with a polarstar instead of a wolverine or even a Daytona ... The polarstar jack engine is really amazing the rate of fire ,the consistency, the durability and of course the Fps ... It's about 300-400$ , give it a shot. What do you say? I don't know much about the the wolverine system but the p* is a proven system and after just fiddling with the electronics for a few secs you can alter the Rof, FPS and a burst function can be added...

Sorry guys, didnt see your replies.
@kathiresan I dont think there is a polarstar kit built for the tavor. It might have to be modified for it to fit in. This is a V6 gearbox. One of my friend has a P* Jack, it is pretty consistent and versatile. I might invest in one for my SR16 body that's sitting gathering dust.
@RandomGuyOnTheNet, this shoots around 380-390 fps. FPS is not that important after a point for range and accuracy. But it definitely helps when it comes to people calling their hits :)
