Nozzle breaking: that sounds like a set up issue. The nozzles shouldn’t be breaking so frequently. Have you fitted a GM v3.5 nozzle? I’ve fitted those and they seem to be pretty robust. I’ve also heard nozzles snapping can occur from over-loading the magazines with bbs. Maybe try putting a few less bbs in each mag? you could also look at a stronger nozzle return spring. mags leaking: if properly maintained and stored, they shouldn’t leak. My pistol mags are stored in a peli case with a desiccant and pressure valve. Of the 50, only 5 leaked after 6 months in a storage container (when I moved house) and presently those 5 are the only ones that leak and that’s because the orings have perished. if you store them with a low pressure, high silicone gas, they’ll likely stay gas tight indefinitely. I used to to abbey maintenance gas but recently moved to ultra air because it’s cheaper.

Just be wary, the police have a lot more time for “violent” and “real” crime than they do “non-violent” crimes like theft and shoplifting. They’ll be more inclined to arrest you and charge you with assault for laying a hand on the thief whilst retrieving your stolen goods back, than they are inclined to charge the burglars. Lots of these thieves will know how to play the system as well. They’ll make their assault and lower hanging fruit than the theft of your belongings.

“Hey Alexa, shoot the bad guys” Also - their website seems abit contrary. glock - introducing the *brand new* G17L gen5 MOS also glock - discontinuing the G17L gen5 MOS

I heard a rumour from IWA at the G45 & G45 MOS sales were outstripping every other model and glock were considering reducing all the models that competed with the G45 MOS. Did put much weight in it as it was pub talk. Sounds like my friend might have been speaking some truth. In other news (with the help of Facebook translate) it sounds like the new batch of G17.5s might ship in Japan soon. Maybe on 2nd May?in

It’s a British G17:

Rumours are true, they’re doing a G34 gen5 MOS!

Yeah, first time I did it, I panicked as I thought I’d really f*cked it. I couldn’t get the sear back in with my bare hands 🙈 luckily I buy so much shadowfoam I had a pair of forceps to hand and managed to jiggle it in using them. No idea how you get it in barehanded.

Second half of the gen5 disassembly video

The new agency arms slides just landed on my doorstep today 👍🏽 pretty happy with the first one! shamless plug, but I’ve started recording some of the tech work I do, and as a result, I’m in the process of publishing a few tech videos on the gen5 MOS. Have a look and let me know if you lot think it’s helpful?

Yeah, the gen2 mags are backwards compatible. They seem to have better gas stored and gas output compared to the old mags. I find my older glocks run much better on the newer mags, so whilst they’re quite expensive, they seem worth it. They’re still heavy compared to the guarder, prowin and TTI mags.

Few bits of glock news: firstly it looks like TM have announced a new production date. Hopefully that means if you had a preorder with impulse, you’ll get yours! secondly, don’t have photos to hand, but guarder have teased on Facebook they’ll be doing a gen5 G34 and G45 based off the gen5 mos platform 😍

most commonly, the UKARA number has a typo or the paper has fallen off the consignment. Both have happened to me. Never had a visit from police. normally you get a snotty letter saying you’re breaking the law unless you provide a defence, and at that point you get the opportunity to provide a defence. I wonder if the letter never got to you?

*stock clearance sale* *miffed that lots of stock is cleared out* They used to be really good for Gucci TM glock upgrades. I feel a bit bad as I haven’t bought from them in a while, but used to buy all my guns modify parts from them.

I played a full game day today. Including venting the mags and refilling them, I used one large can of Nuprol 2.0. So about £8-9 worth of gas. I can’t remember the last time I used more than 1 can.

Don’t forget, they’ll be listed at retail or higher as well 🤣

I went through a phase of buying boneyard TM Glocks off this forum, refurbishing them and selling them. i gave up after I bought one glock held together with super glue, and one that smelt like it had been soaked in toilet water. 😭 the state people leave their kit in boggles my mind.

as @Lozartsaid, it’s not illegal. But it’s a frustrating grey area that can land you in some trouble. Largest, most likely risk is that customs will confiscate it and you’ll lose it along with your money. I know a couple of lads who’ve been flagged (and visited) by police due to purchasing numerous items of RS furniture directly from US and Europe (Poland I think). Nothing came of it, but it’s always a shock when you get a knock at 6am from police and then asked to present at a police station for an interview. There’s nothing illegal about it, but if you’re buying dozens of AK hand guards in a country where no one can legally own an AK… It raises red flags. I’ve never met anyone who’s fallen foul of this, but there’s always a rumour floating around that if you buy one too many items from Brownells UK, you’ll get a knock on the door 🤣

penny farthing? 🤣

You’ve become a MAMIL 🤣 Worse than a milsimmer or speedsofter!

IMO big Steve builds is one of the best around. I’d like to think I’m pretty good, but Steve has fixed a pistol that I wrote off as boneyard on more than one occasion.

You may have a faulty tracer. Or bad batteries? my TM full auto tracer is nearly 15 years old and going strong. It stays on as long as the power button is toggled on.
