  1. From point of release in Japan to us getting them in the UK is usually 3 - 6 months. In that time period, no more new G17.5 batches have made in the scope of that timetable. Gen 5 MOS were released in Japan December 2023, first ones arriving in the UK were February 2024 - so they were the December 2023 batch of production. The only glocks shipped by TM for 2024 were the G19.4's in April. Prior to that, the last G17's (gen 3) prior to that were in May 2023, the last G17.4 reference was back in April 2023. These gen 4's are probably from that or older batches. There is no mythical new batch, its just old stock.
  2. Guess someone didn't read Ebay rules about RIF's, as its gone now.
  3. CYMA CGS isn't an MWS. The only things which are potentially compatible are the mags. Everything else is T8's spec.
  4. I'm sorry, you are? I only discovered I got replied to because I was bored and went looking as to why this had been bumped.
  5. You're going to be shit out of luck basically, it's a proprietary receiver extension. GBBR spec stock is different from AEG spec, and a RS one uses a different spec as well - not that the RS one would work with the N4, as it has different threads.
  6. Depends on what you're buying - if its high demand items you're probably fine. This particular case, its not a high demand item. HRC is littered with complaints about them, mostly within the last 12 months.
  7. Good luck with that - Do not buy anything from KYAirsoft until after you've got written confirmation they have it in stock, their website is bullshit on stock levels 99.9% of the time. And if they don't have it in stock, they'll hold onto the money indefinitely until they do, getting a refund from them earlier this year took 5 months.
  8. Just in case you hadn't seen it yet - Salvo Precision is effectively Double Eagle, and this is their version of Spear LT which is currently slated for Q1/Q2 2025. As its DE, it's MWS based and it won't cost an arm and a leg like the toxicants.
  9. Somewhat accidentally bidding on an airtac adapter for GHK M4/G5, didn't expect to actually win it. I suppose i'll have it ready for the V2 G5's next year. i got it about half the price of a new one, which is a win I suppose? 😅
  10. It's the same company, they've just retooled from WE clones to TM clones. But at $500, you're well into just buy the TM territory.
  11. So talking to asian market friends, whilst this is theoretically TM AKM system, it's only going to be partially compatible - so unless its really, really cheap, probably going to be a halo item.
  12. Yes, the technical thing - just enabling multifactor authentication would be a deterrent to spam accounts in itself, and also make it slightly less likely for accounts to be compromised (Not impossible, just a more difficult). Maybe worthwhile considering requiring 2FA for access to marketplace, as it could be enough of a deterrence for scammers to not bother (would also make identifying repeat offenders easier theoretically).
  13. Only way to fix this is a complete replacement fire control group, as almost all of the first 3 batches had this issue.
  14. Wish i'd been online to respond to that - When the BCG costs as much as the gun just to make RS dust covers work, there be something fucky going on. The reason RS dust covers aren't an option for them, as those guns use the space for volume. So you would be gimping your capability for a tiny aesthetic item? Yeah, nah.

  15. Oops. Forgot about that, Sorry. The response I got back was highly amusing either way.
  16. Special made nozzle meaning proprietary? At which point it joins TNT in the nice try, but no dice pile. Also, that nozzle looks to be metal - there is a reason nobody else other than RATech have done metal nozzles, because they're shit. Chopped BB's and exarcerbated by substantially more cooldown - which especially in the UK doesn't work all that well.
  17. I thought the GHK was bad, the NGRS are just plain batshit.
  18. Holy shit. I thought you were off your rocker with the GHK AK, this is utterly batshit.
  19. More likely, its the OEM that Novritsch used, without the novritsch branding and associated exorbitant pricing.
  20. Edit: Disregard - confusing well pro with well fire. D'oh.
  21. This looks more like an advert for the shop than a review of the site.
  22. Presumably seen the posts in here given the edit - No mate, we will mock you mercilessly for that level of pisstake. Edit: worst case (and glossing over the fact that most recent GHK AK's barely work) for prices on everything in that, someone could replicate it brand new for slightly over £1600 - its not special in any way, nor is it rare, so why is his asking 70% of new.
  23. Should be mentioned always - depending on how the retailer has done it, it could mess with some guns actual finish. Still remember a certain retailer a long while back that mixed paint thinners in with their spray, so it completely lifted the stock finish.
  24. It's worse, some numpties spend the best part of £2k to get a limited edition run of GHK 416's because they said they couldn't justify the expense of creating a normal run...lol
