AirsoftExeter Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Going to finally upgrade my glock 17 build more and was wondering what people’s opinions are on the bbu and hammer set I chose here are the upgrades so far (also do you think it’s worth going to 140% recoil and and hammer springs?)

Cr0-Magnon Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 I can't speak for anyone else but when using a TM base I keep as much stock as possible, possibly a stronger recoil spring if it feels a bit sluggish with the metal slide on. I doubt you'll see a noticeable difference with that BBU and IMO all steel parts are for is durability over time. Isn't this the same one you're selling though? Either way, I would let the part actually wear-out before I worried about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I got some other people recommending to put 135% recoil and hammer springs for better gas efficiency as it’s a aluminium slide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are, and converting from a TM, use the spring list on rainbow to tell you what recoil and hammer springs you need with your new slide. If you’re running green or red gas, EVERYTHING else you do is aesthetics or bragging rights, been down that path many times. If you’re not obsessed with Glocks (I was) buy your self a TM FNX, easily the best OEM pistol for performance out there. More ammo per mag, better efficiency, better range, red dot bolts right on top. Zero upgrades to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
