There are a plethora of MOSFET options available on the market these days. The majority of these require some form of soldering or in their basic non-hardwired form are “plug and play” style that do not offer the benefit of full trigger contact protection. Distilled down to its basic requirements, a FET’s job is chiefly about protecting your trigger contacts from burning out due to arcing.
Novices to Airsoft teching, or players who do not otherwise have a quality soldering iron may struggle a bit with installing some of these offerings. While the cost of a basic iron itself has decreased dramatically over the years, soldering itself is a bit of an art, and it’s not uncommon to see some pretty bad soldering jobs in this business.

What sets this particular Glock apart from the many others that have stepped before it is that it is an officially licensed replica. For US based players in particular, this presents itself as a much more accessible Glock product, as obtaining one in the past has not been without certain difficulties. Some might remember the massive blowback from Glock themselves quite a few years ago, and the myriad cease and desist letters that were sent to manufacturers, distributors and stores alike that were dealing in Glock replicas. Needless to say, if you wanted an accurately ‘traded’ Glock replica, you generally had to ship it into the US in parts and pieces. The alternative was to simply accept any number of clones and copies that disused trades or even made significant alternations on the physical appearance of the Glock design itself. 
The small fleet of Airsoft replica M240B GPMG’s represents a fairly robust internal and external design, but it is plagued by a major weakness: the box magazine.
