Now this begs the question does this prove this was a new batch, or were these kept in the warehouse *because* of this and someone just forgot or okay’d it to be sent out

I saw that post on X this morning, and I wondered the same!

Look forward to see them showing up in Macks tread.  Rare custom Khyber pass Glock 19.

Australian Glock.

At least TM are providing free replacements for anyone that gets one.

In case people have missed it.

guarder have been busy posting updates on new gen5 upgrades. Their lightweight BBU will be less that 10g 🤯

 

I reckon we’ll see complete new generation lowers with trades by the end of the year.

 

i also reckon it will be quicker to buy and assemble a complete guarder kit than wait for Marui to reproduce a gen5.

 

the last 2 gen4s I’ve built have been complete guarder builds and they’re almost drop in kits. So I imagine the gen5 will be similar.

I've already  lost half of those bits on the floor just by looking at them.

 

 

TM are teasing us - since Jan they've done runs 17.3, 26, 26A and 22.

 

I wonder if they could do a new 22.5. I'm sure they've already thought of that if the legal stuff is hampering 17.5

rumour I’ve heard from within the retail industry is that they’ve sorted out the legal problems (which weren’t actually legal problems but production problems) and they’re back at it. we might be waiting a bit for the gen5 as it’s more onerous to produce compared to the others. But who knows.

 

Personally, I’m waiting for guarder to start selling complete lowers, nozzles and blowback units. Then I have everything I need to build them without a donor.

First time I took one apart, I got the trigger sear and my screw driver stuck in the chassis. Simultaneously the sear spring launched to the other side of the room and got tangled in my dogs fur…

Yeah, i'm not one for fiddly stuff where you need 4 pairs of hands in different sizes.

 

Rails and drop ins are fine, but something like a trigger box is just not worth the agro for me. Even my ngrs's go to a tech just for the ease of not having to dick around with it.

I’d still rather work on a GBB mechanism than a NGRS. 
 

I hear that when you open an NGRS, the soul of a Japanese Airsoft tech leaves the receiver. You have to sacrifice another one to be able to seal his soul back into the receiver when closing it, otherwise it will never work again.
