Bought this gun a month ago, leaky mag, low power, not working very well, and a scratched up paintjob. I've spent plenty of time tinkering with the internals to get her working great, and I just today finished my external makeover. All the metal parts were blaster in a glass bead blasting cabinet to achieve their look. So without further ado, here is my KJW M700.

Externals
Stock
Leapers 4X Scope

Internals
650mm, 6.03, MB V2 Tightbore
Rest is stock

Future Plans:
KA Rubber Set
Improved Striker Spring
New Bucking
Possible conversion to VSR type Hop-up

Love the white and black color scheme there. I can tell you took your time. Everything looks smooth with no blemishes. Painting has never been a strong point of mine, but I have looked at some of your paint jobs over at MIA, and they are really good. +1 for creating a beautiful looking rifle Kind of looks like a rifle an assassin would use in the movies

By the way, is MB mad bull? If so how is it treating you so far. I have a 363 mm barrel by madbull but has never really had some rounds put through it yet.

Looks nice. Is this a takedown model? If it is, the VSR hop might not work with it, unless KJW did something different then Tanaka.

Fuzzy, its actually not white, its glass bead blasted, so its a metallic grey/silver color with rough texture. Thanks for the complement. And yes MB is Madbull, this barrel is nice so far, haven't put many round through it. I've had other MB barrels int eh past and all have worked flawlessly.

Raptor, It is the takedown, and I am researching compatibility currently.

O, my bad, from a quick glance I assumed it was white. Must have overlooked your description. Good to hear the Madbull's have worked nicely for you. Keep up the good work.

Nice!

Good luck Yankee, one of the reasons I got rid of my Tanaka TD(aside from picking up a Tanaka AICS pre-upgraded, and the fact I traded it for a VSR), was the lack of compatibility with that particular upgrade. The main thing that it will not with with is the adjustment system on the TD, unless you drill a hole through the top of the outer barrel and install your own adjuster or something.

Nice finish! Drill and tapping is simple. Take your time building your jig and don't let drilling a hole in a $500 gun intimate you.

That my friend, is beautiful, you should almost just use it as a shelf piece.

This, if you do it right, it should only take 20-30 minutes, just be easy with it, and don't force anything. Plus, if you screw up, you only have to replace the mag =P.

On the police version (non-takedown) it already comes with a VSR style hop up. I'm not sure about the takedowns hop up, but I know the non takedown has a VSR style unit.

That looks really good, i really like the KJW M700s, you should have bought the power bolt before sending it to the glass bead blaster lol.
