You know the old plastic TM M4 bodies that had the tabs on the upper receiver that goes into the lower and the rear pin goes through and always snapped

 

I got a second hand body that has those but is a metal body

 

Who made those?

 

Pics for reference of when I got it vs when I finished it with trades and paint

Could it be an early acm ?, lack of trades plus the fact it has the lugs which were copied way back from tm & ca.

This had no trades when I got it, I put the trades on 

 

Did G&P even have tabs? 

As I said G&p 

I had an l119a1 version

What are all the weird lines around the engraving mate?

I don't think you understand my post bud

 

The body I purchased was blank, G&P don't sell non traded bodies. My "L119A1" trades I put on myself, the weird lines around the engraving are from the salt water etching process I'm still yet to remove 

 

G&P didn't have rear tabs on the uppers like the old TM and ICS uppers but again, ICS have traded bodies

Maybe I misunderstood bud,  but I’m pretty sure my l119a1 traded receiver was a G&p with tabs cus they chipped and broke.

Or do you mean lugs for a body pin? I see now. Duh.

Yes mate those rear lugs that the rear body pin went through that always snapped 

 

I'm sure G&P didn't do them 👍😉

And I'm sure 98% of all G&P and CA are traded

My guarder body had those, I broke them off and used with a g&p lower. 

You are right jez, g&p never had those lugs. 

Did your guarder body come blank?
