Frequently asked

How heavy is the M3?

Medium — 45g actuation with a 55g bottom-out on an 18mm spring. It has a firm, clean floor that suits a confident typing style.

What gives the M3 its clacky sound?

The LY stem combined with a P5 bottom housing of nylon and 50% fiberglass makes a stiff, bright system, which produces a clean, high-pitched, sharp clack.

Is it good stock?

Yes. It ships factory lubed and the smooth glide plus the clacky signature are both there out of the bag.
