Default RE: Custom IDF M-41

I was thinking about 3:1 gears, but the M41 was considered a "light" tank and was fairly nimble so I'm gonna keep the stock set-up(3:1 are better for "heavy" tanks) although I might buy the upgraded steel gearboxes for it. I was considering a pershing but it looks like the IDF never had any m-26's(though I could be wrong) but I have yet to find anything online.... I'm a big airsofter so I plan on putting a tight-bore barrel,improved air nozzle/bucking/etc., to increase its power and accuracy..lol

If I wasn't keeping the airsoft, I would definatley get the scale barrel...very cool! real bummer you dont see much aftermarket stuff for these, I would love metal wheels with rubber tires/metal return rollers/metal tracks with rubber pads...but hey at least heng Long had the balls to make it(always thought it was a tough lookn lil sucker)....[sm=47_47.gif]

here's one with tamiya gear..sounds great(I especially dig the spotlight..might build one myself).. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oq_bsgE_tag
