    For a little history, look up the AKA Evil-M... It's no coincidence that Cyborgs used Merlin Extrusions for a long time.

    I'd expect they'll both last just as long as each other. The Vikings and Borgs run so well because they use cartridge components.
    The Borg is widely considered a "Stacked Tube Viking".
    There is very little wear imparted on the actual guns themselves. Any problems and simply pop in a new cartridge.

    lol, Im more than up to date on the Evil M. And I thought only the early Borgs were made from Merlin extrusions? Either way, the body is only one component to the whole. I know a lot of AKA fans have gone to Macdev but at the same time a lot of them havent.

      I got a Borg and honestly I found it was kinda dull. I mean it shot/played great but it just didn't excite me like Vikings do. When I think about the Evil M it makes me want to cry, almost. To think what could have been. Still the Viking is incredible and I feel fortunate to have a few prime examples. Get one while you can. Us whoring trolls are hangin onto the good'ns.

        I believe all the way up through the '06 Borgs used the Merlin base extrusion.
        The '07s were the first to change that base layout.

          My guess would be 04 & 05 and then the change was made for 06 but thats just me... The 06 and 07 seem to similar to have the change occur between the two. Also they use most of the same guts, the frame geometry and detents are different but not much else besides the top tube milling. Anyone know for certain the lineage of the borg as it relates to merlin extrusions?

            I think the Aedes was built off a Merlin Extrusion.
