Supporters jcheeseright Posted September 9, 2013 Supporters Posted September 9, 2013 So, was on arnies (other forums are available!) earlier and I saw that Guns Modify are making some new slides for Marui Glock 17s. Now of course upgrade parts for that pistol are nothing new and there's a hundred and one metal slides available for it... but not any like this one: http://www.wgcshop.com/wgc2008/main/product_detail1.php?search_From=category&item=GMF-SAI-G17F-SVR&search=special&rs=Pistol%20-%20Slide&catid=116&cat=246 Unfortunately, I don't own a marui glock17 to put that on, which is adding to costs... but it's just so coooooooool. I cannot be allowed to push that button... HALP!!!!
Mike636 Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Easy, tell your significant other, receive bollocking and forever associate spending that much and a telling off!
Supporters Nutster Posted September 9, 2013 Supporters Posted September 9, 2013 (other forums are available!) Blasphemy They do look bloody nice though
Supporters M_P Posted September 9, 2013 Supporters Posted September 9, 2013 Saw this earlier too, wasnt remotely interested as I generally dont like Glocks. Then I saw the picture which definitely swayed me somewhat though I think the blockiness of the slide ruins it a bit. Have to saw I prefer the M&P or FNP with RMRs though.
Supporters jcheeseright Posted September 10, 2013 Author Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 so I'm now seriously considering putting my old Dell gaming laptop up for sale to fund this, it's been sat in a bag for 6 months without being used so I figure I don't need it anymore. could probably sell my 5-7 with mags, mag pouched and serpa for £130-140 ish too. hmm...
Supporters Airsoft-Ed Posted September 10, 2013 Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 There isn't an airsoft FNP is there? I've always thought they looked awesome as fuck, was so happy when I got the new Ghost Recon game and it's the standard sidearm, used the shit out of it in that game
Supporters jcheeseright Posted September 10, 2013 Author Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 I don;t think anyone makes an FNP at the moment, WE apparently have one in the works though!
Supporters M_P Posted September 10, 2013 Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 There isn't an airsoft FNP is there? I've always thought they looked awesome as f*ck, was so happy when I got the new Ghost Recon game and it's the standard sidearm, used the sh*t out of it in that game Not yet but as JCR said, WE have one in the works James from WE mentioned a load of new pistols they're going to do at a hobby show a while back.
Supporters jcheeseright Posted September 10, 2013 Author Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 So I mentally added up my 'surplus' stuff today and I reckon I can get the funds together, ebay auctions going up this afternoon! It will be mine!!! Question now is, gold barrel or silver barrel? Silver is more tactical but gold is sort of the salient trademark.
Supporters Airsoft-Ed Posted September 10, 2013 Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 I freakin' hate guns with gold on them. Edit: Just noticed that the slide costs more than the gun! WTFF?!
Supporters M_P Posted September 10, 2013 Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 Probably no different to a real SA slide then The majority of decent metal kits cost a fair bit anyway
Supporters jcheeseright Posted September 10, 2013 Author Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 look at it though Ed... look at it... I keep going back to the page and getting to 'checkout' before coming to my senses and walking away from the computer!
Supporters Airsoft-Ed Posted September 10, 2013 Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 $460 is just overly mental. I spent less than that on mine and part of the purchase was a £125 holster and 3 mags, which were £30 each.
Supporters Monty Posted September 10, 2013 Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 The slide is more expensive than the gun itself!? It does look nice though.
remus Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 isnt it a good thing i dont like glocks. think that slide costs more than my whole loadout... for the others however
Supporters jcheeseright Posted September 10, 2013 Author Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 oh, so while I now feel a little bit lightheaded and somewhat nauseous... I am $373 lighter. Why so many shinies?! WHYYYYYYYYYYY!!! Also, WTB TM Glock 17 in good condition with magazines, who has one for sale? (to clarify, I'm selling my old Dell XPS Laptop to fund this, I figure since it's been sat in a cupboard for months I don't need it anymore)
Supporters jcheeseright Posted September 10, 2013 Author Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 Easy, tell your significant other, receive bollocking and forever associate spending that much and a telling off! she will NEVER FIND OUT!
Supporters jcheeseright Posted September 10, 2013 Author Supporters Posted September 10, 2013 hahahaha, she can't read, what do you think this is, some kind of equal society where women are allowed to drive and vote? god no, she's chained in the kitchen.
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted September 11, 2013 Supporters Posted September 11, 2013 Doesn't do much for me. Better than a standard Glock, but that's not hard since they look like Lego.
Supporters jcheeseright Posted September 11, 2013 Author Supporters Posted September 11, 2013 release date 'confirmed' as the end of this month, gives me time to get my sh*t together and actually buy the gun for this slide to go on! Thinking of putting a streamlight TL-R1s on the front and holding it in a Crye gunclip, anyone have any experience with either of those items? Real or replica I'm not all that fussed.
geoffreym Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Mate of mine got the repro gunclip off of ebairsoft, disintegrated within 3 hours of hard wearing. He then got the real one while on a trip to Tampa and it survived being run over by a KA.
Supporters jcheeseright Posted September 11, 2013 Author Supporters Posted September 11, 2013 settles that one then, real gunclip it is.
Supporters M_P Posted September 11, 2013 Supporters Posted September 11, 2013 Just be aware that you pretty much have to be stationary to re-holster the weapon, it's impossible whilst on the move- might be worth considering a g-code or other kydex options.
