so I’ve now got two of these.

 

The one below with aluminium slide, steel barrel and ACRO.

I’ve built an identical one with steel slide and micro pro sight.

 

Despite its bulk, the gen5 doesn’t seem to struggle shifting the ACRO and it’s pretty easy to aim.

Thats cool, I just ordered an Acro for mine today

Which means I’ll be putting a BoomArms MOS plate for an SRO in the classifieds

Get the bomber or the angry gun ACRO plate. Boomarms and JKarmy have them. WGC also do the angry gun one and shipping is only £7 for orders under £90.

I can’t read at a gcse level apparently.

Got one of my G17s back from West Laser. Posted it on Monday. Arrived back today.

I highly recommend them 👍🏽

Thanks for that

My Acro has arrived, WGC’s order has only just been dispatched 😂

Both ordered within a half hour of each other 

Tick followed Tock……

 

Quite digging your Ceracote job, but a bit bold for me

Ive been tempted to get the soldering iron and Dremel out to do some stippling, though I’d like a knackered lower to practice on first

to be fair, I have a cherry Red Cherry G17 gen3, so midnight brown is quite conservative 😂

 

yeah. You can’t control how quickly they get through the orders.

Angry Gun MOS plate arrived along with a set of Pro Arms steel sights. 

All went together easily with no modification needed

£15 on eBay and a bit of super glue, you can convert those sights in tritium sights 👌🏽

 

I can’t remember the hole size, I think it’s 1.6mm.

I might just investigate that 

The holes aren’t very deep, maybe 5mm

I’ve already gone and filled them with titanium white acrylic, looks quite decent akchewallly

That’s about right - the fishing lure tritium vials you get are about 1.6mmx5mm. You can sometimes get watch specification tritium vials from Switzerland which are brighter. They tend to be a lot more expensive but it’s still cheaper than buying pre made tritium sights.

That’s definitely on my shopping list, I’d better go have a search about for them 👍

Had another one in Elite Midnight

Could someone please tell which is the correct 6.03 laylax barrel for the TM G17 G5. Is it the 97mm 6.03 for the Glock 18c?

Stock pistols usually come with 97mm or similar length inner barrels.

 

I don't spend money on 97mm personally when I can get away with ~106mm for example. More fps on the same pressure but you don't have to hide with suppressor or tracer if you don't want to. A few mil between the inner and outer barrel.

Is there a compatibility list for gen 3, 4 & 5?  I gather mags are interchangeable but can you say, swap slides etc?

G17 Gen 3, 4, 5:
Mags

inner barrels

hop rubbers

hop tensioners (ML I-Bar)

 

G17 Gen4, 5:

recoil springs

hop arm

 

G19 Gen3 and Gen4, G17 Gen5

Hop unit

 

That’s about it. Basically everything else in the Gen5 is different. Even the pins in the hammer mechanism are different.

Jaeger precision popped a video up a couple of days ago, admitting he is late to the party 😁

saw this.

 

i was going to do some videos and how to’s but i struggle for time to film and time to edit.

 

so far is disassembled mine down to springs and screws and reassembled. Daunting at first but it makes sense now.

Those sights are tidy 👌🏽 those the same Proarms sights with the new tritium rods in?

Thanks bud,

Yeah, that’s the ProArms ones, but I filled the holes with Ti White Acrylic paint

Worked quite well

Looks like I won't be getting one despite my intentions - Baton, who rebrand KJW pistols, particularly CO2 models, now 'own' the license for Glock in Japan - which ultimately means Gen 5 MOS will cease to be made.

You can still buy them from Airsoft World? 
 

we’ll have to see how it goes - Asian airsoft companies are famed for ignoring trademarks and license. I haven’t seen anything in the news about it but maybe I’m not looking hard enough.
