I have the V2 two guns, purchased in 2013 though. Haven't seen it in a loong time but from what I remember I'd say the finish on the v2 is a mix of clean and "combat" versions, somewhere in between. Not painted though, pretty sure it's chromed like the first versions. BTW, sucks about the leaning, don't know if mine will do it, still boxed up. Love the pose on the V2
bada55, more than the original I think.
