I think I want to expand my airbrush arsenal to include a single action airbrush. I have several natural-metal aircraft to build and I heard for shooting natural metal lacquers, single action airbrushes are superior.
What do you use and why do you like it?

gotta agree. The Badger 200 was my first ever airbrush years ago, and it is still a great brush.

I'll endorse the 200 also. My first airbrush, I still use it as my main single action brush, and it is nearly 40 years old. Still has the original needle. I have only replaced the teflon sealing washer and the pickup tube.

Thank you, I'm getting Badger 200 then.
The Badger 200 is a fine single action AB - have had mine for years and still works fine. But one that hasn't been mentioned is the Iwata SAR single action and it might be something to consider as well. I don't own one but have the Revolution CR which is a double action equivalent to the Revolution SAR and it's a great AB.

Why so? I was going to recommend the venerable old Paasche Model H. I've been using mine since 1989 and it's done everything I've needed to do since then, painting 40 aircraft and two tanks. Multi-color camo, single colors and NMFs of several varieties. Albeit, I have had to replace a couple tips and cones over the years, mostly due to my clumsy handling I suspect.
