🔍 What Is This?
Gaahleri's best‑value entry into serious airbrushing. Classic top‑lever dual‑action with two nozzle/needle sets (0.35 + 0.5 mm), two cups (7 + 15 ml), needle limiter, PTFE seals, quick self‑centering 8‑MAC nozzle, cutaway handle, and everything you need out of the box. Entry‑level pricing, mid‑level features.
👤 Who Is It For?
✅ Great fit
Your first proper airbrush. Upgrading from a cheap no‑name or starting from scratch. Needle limiter helps beginners build control; dual nozzle covers detail + coverage without buying two guns.
⚠️ Less ideal
If you want premium Mobius‑level build, mirror‑polish cups, or trigger refinement — step up to Premium Series. If you want pistol grip, see GHAD‑68.

🛠️ What Makes It Different at This Price
| 🌀 8‑MAC Nozzle | 8 micro air channels — consistent atomisation usually found on pricier airbrushes. |
| ⚡ Self‑Centering | Drop‑in nozzle seats itself correctly. No precision alignment during reassembly. |
| 🎚️ Needle Limiter | Caps max trigger pull — prevents floods. Beginners: use it. Experienced: leave it open. |
| 🫙 Dual Polished Cups | 7 ml (detail, less waste) + 15 ml (coverage, fewer refills). Smooth interiors for faster cleaning. |
| 👁️ Cutaway Handle | Open‑frame rear — see needle position, quick access for cleaning, improved balance. |
| 🔒 PTFE Seals | Teflon seals — more resistant to solvents, longer lifespan. Spare o‑rings included. |

⚠️ Honest Heads‑Up
• Entry build, not premium — punches above its price but not Mobius‑level finish or cup polish.
• Not ultra‑fine — 0.35 mm handles detail well, but 0.2 mm is better for hair‑thin freehand.
• Needle limiter — brilliant for beginners, you'll outgrow it. That's normal progression.
