Complete Guarder Steel G34. Built this from nothing with almost entirely steel parts. Went with a TTI hop unit as they’re substantially better than the OEM style hops. I plan on using this for CQB games, so it has tritium sights as well.

Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread
MistakenMexican replied to Mack's topic in General Discussion
Entry for the week and it’s only Monday 😭 £1100 for a used and abused MWS with cosmetic damage and issues 🤣 I also love the backchat and sass to members trying to save him from a ban 😂 -
This crossed my path this morning. Ended up pre-ordering one through JKArmy given the price and potential. It looks like an interesting concept - an MWS rifle using TM hicapa mags. https://shop.jkarmy.com/sa-pcc-h75-bk.html Won’t be released until January, so I probably won’t receive mine until late January/February. But I thought I’d create a thread to talk about it.

I always interpreted it as a “production calendar”. maybe that’s wrong, but it logically made sense to me. they ear marked November 2023 (or whenever it was) to produce the Gen5. By the time it was despatched to retailers, it was January. They then ear marked Most of the gen5s will have gone to the Japanese market before being opened to international distributors. As far as I can tell from the TM website, there’s been no batch of gen5s this year. It’s probably residual stock they’re trickling out to distributors.

I doubt they will have re-engineered the gen4. They’ll have just re-produced it to the original spec. It was very good at the time and still pretty decent even with the improvements of the gen5. Seems like a lot of added cost.

So not necessarily gun related, but gear related. Printed this ornamental skull and stand to put an old facemask on 😃 Got the idea from an American company doing them.

Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

His excuses don’t add up to me. sounds like the courier has lost two guns and he’s expecting PayPal to have helped him somehow… I could sympathise with him not wanting to post the RIF after that experience… but PayPal have no control over the postal system and will always side with the buyer if the goods never arrive. on the flip side, what he’s saying is - if it doesn’t arrive, he’s keeping the money and the the buyer is done for. -
My latest G19. Fitted the TTI hop unit which has produced some great results in every glock I’ve fitted it to. Onto the next one 😅 going to try a gen4 next.

Just keep in mind that if the seller has dropped it off at the post office and ordered the PF24 service, It’s 24 hrs from collection from PF, not 24 hrs from being dropped off at the post office. I had an upset buyer about a year back because I sent a RIF via PF48 and it took nearly a week to arrive with him. I live in a reasonably rural area, about an hour from the nearest PF depot. However my local post office is only a 15 minute drive. I dropped my PF consignment off at the post office on a Saturday, and PF didn’t pick it up until Wednesday. The tracking didn’t activate until it was scanned in by the PF courier… so from the customer’s end, it looked like I was messing them about. Even though I had a receipt to show it had been dropped off. He was patient and it worked out in the end. But it’s easy to understand why he got upset given he paid for 48hr shipping and it took 3 days to collect.

@Stevey293 The gen5 has a pivoting valve knocker. I’ve found Marui packed the hammer mechanisms with too much grease. This means the valve knocker doesn’t retract fully, and therefore is pivoted when ready to fire. It then glances off the output valve, creating a light strike. In my testing, the stock Marui hammer spring struggled with green gas at room temperature. I upgraded to the CCT 120% spring and it works fine. But struggled with Nuprol 3.0 in a warm room. So it might not be all that surprising that a stock hammer spring is light striking on guarder. On the gen4 or less, a warped hammer frame or hammer can create a light strike, regardless of how strong your hammer spring is.

Postage was quite reasonable from memory. But international postage is still quite expensive right now.

Used then a lot. The only time I’ve ever been left waiting was some Taiwanese national holiday that lasted nearly a week 😂 can’t blame them though!

Trittech Shooting Glasses With Built In Fan.
MistakenMexican replied to Chev Chelios's topic in Latest News
I only got mine yesterday so I haven’t skirmished them. But the fan on the first 2 settings was so quiet I thought the fans were broken 😂 I had to turn everything off as the humming from my office light was drowning out the fans. they initially felt a bit clunky but they became comfortable very quickly. -
Trittech Shooting Glasses With Built In Fan.
MistakenMexican replied to Chev Chelios's topic in Latest News
Heads up for those interested. I bought some trittech glasses from Fife wargames. They arrived next working day and I’m happy with them. I dropped them a quick email to ask about extra lenses and Oli has highlighted they have another order of trittech stock coming in around 3-4 weeks time. The price is fair - would cost you £5 more to order from Trittech directly once you consider postage for both orders. Either way you’ll be waiting 3-4 weeks to receive them I guess? -
as @Cr0-Magnonhas said, the new guarder CNC stuff is a step change. Virtually drop in. got a few mates who have done G17, G19 builds with their new (2022+) CNC stuff and it’s all been flawless. so you should be fine to drop it all in. if you can get a stock of stock gen4 barrels then there’s no reason why you can’t use the stock barrel. You’ll probably find the barrels will wear quickly and your shots won’t be as accurate either as a steel outer barrel provides an element of stability compared to the plastic.

email them. typically they’re waiting on something to arrive from back order but they don’t bother keeping you up to date.
