Hi guys,

I’m almost new to airsoft. I decided to buy a TM MEU to train IDPA style.

The goals of this build are the followings
• Maximum Accuracy within 15 / 20 m max
• Weight 980-1.030 grams
• Maximum recoil
• Trigger Pull around 1300-1500 grams
• High reliability for high number of shots/year
• Built after IDPA (Real Steel) CDP division specifications

After reading the whole thread I decide to divide the build in 3 different steps.

Step 1: Functional / Performance improvement
Step 2: Increasing Real Steel feeling
Step 3: Cosmetics
In the following chart the parts list for each step:

What do you think about ? Do you have any suggestion, changes to propose ? Some ideas where to source the parts at good prices will be welcome as well (just for info I’m living in Czech Republic - Europe)

I’ve read the whole thread since the beginning (yes 103 pages !!!) To better understand terms and have an overview of various topics / parts, I’ve started copying and pasting the most interesting topics related to my goal (under my personal only judgment obviously ) in a word file, a bit of editing, adding some parts pics here and there, some info on the RS MEU plus an index I ended up having kind of e-booklet of about 40 pages.
To avoid possible misinformation in case I’ve got something wrong, after having its contempt hopefully checked by some experts here, I will be happy to make it freely available to anybody interested, more later…

Happy shooting

Max
