First thought I had was that it looked like it belonged on the back of some dude in spandex sporting his country's colors and riding around on skis.

Eeewwww


Guess what a TM VSR comes shooting out of the box...


Some people think that low FPS=low range.
Not everyone realizes that >300 fps TM can have the same range as a <400 gun.


So a TM above 300 fps is as good as a another gun at less than 400?

Fixed. Remember, alligator eats the larger number.

And I think this used to be referred too as "TM magic".

So what your saying is changing any internals on a TM is a very bad idea?

Can you catch the little fairies and put them in Chinese clones?
