Very nice Junho.. I haven't stopped looking at upgrades ever since getting my BM the other day. If you don't mind my asking: What made you go with the rail covers over just leaving them exposed?

This is what makes ya crazy:

1. the edges of the rails aren't exactly smooth like a baby's bottom they can take off a good layer of skin if you're not too careful
2. I wanted to protect the rails themselves from scratches/bumps (yeah i know i treat her like a princess)
3. and I dont like the look of rails everywhere

Fair enough.. Thank you.

BTW, how'd you like the poster? Pretty easy to end up putting as much or more into upgades than what the rifle cost originally.
