  1. They actually did a decent job on the finish.
  2. I'm really looking forward to getting one.
  3. I'd be down for that. That's how I have it on my real M&P and my Glock will be coming back with it too. Will these have engravings?
  4. Real PEQ15s have had two-three different bodies over the years. They do come with front screws that are waterproofed in place. The body could be the older style in which the serial number was on the sticker on the side and not laser engraved into the body. It looks like a black unit that was painted tan. However what seems highly suspect is the plug.
  5. A lot of guys hit frames with cerakote to blend the color together. Especially the case when frames require extensive rebuilds with polymer epoxy. My recommendation: give the entire frame's externals a light dusting of FDE paint. It'll even put the look of it and the high points of the stippling may wear a little but the recesses will remain the painted color.
  6. He's referring to the stippling at the top rear of the frame where the webbing of your thumb and index finger grips the gun. Some professional frame gurus recommend against stippling there unless you smooth it out a little as it can inhibit a shooter's ability to get a quick proper grip when engaging the gun initially. It's all shooters preference. If someone requests it of me I usually hit it lightly with some sandpaper so that it aesthetically looks stippled but isn't too aggressive.
  7. Have you asked them yet? I wonder if they assumed it was an AEG and therefore didn't need to be masked on the inside. Definitely would ask for a refund and reimbursement for refinish.
  8. Looks awesome. Really amateur move coating the inside of the receiver. Maybe mask the parts you want to keep and get the inside sand blasted?
  9. Don't forget ... after putting in so much effort into reshaping the frame, you may want want to do a mag release scallop too. Look forward to seeing the finished work. Echo1 Timberwolfs are made by WE. I've had issues with compatibility between WE and TM/VFC parts and guns.
  10. The X300U is actually mounted to the URX II fold down front sight. In the rare scenario in which the optic dies, I can either aim through the optic (which I've done in the past as a training exercise for just that kind of situation), or remove the X300U, flip up the front sight, and place the X300U on the 3, 6, or 9 o'clock rails. The great thing about the Aimpoint micros is that you will rarely if ever replace the batteries. I leave all my micros on setting number 7 at all times and have only replaced one battery amongst all my micros to this day. Conversely, EoTech's, while effective in thei
  11. That's how I run it on my real gun: http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g12/The_Reptile_House/Blog%20Pics/image_zpseb90b8dc.jpg~original
  12. In my experience, the same manufacturer can have variances in polymer, dyes, how long parts are allowed to cool, etc. Those and other factors can result in different stippling results. If you have a wood burning or soldering iron tool with a variable temperature adjustment, you can usually tailor the temp to the polymer. It takes some experimenting though. I've found even working on real Glocks and M&Ps the polymers don't always melt the same, and this is within the same generation of gun. ETA: I don't think you did a bad job myself. Stippling styles change over time. Ultimately it com
  13. OTG has Airsoft Glocks on hand to make sure that you have a perfect fit. Simply tell them the spec of your gun : TM spec or KSC spec. It'll be have better retention with a smoother draw if you tell them the spec of your Airsoft pistol vs telling them you have a RS Glock 21. No other legit kydex holster maker offers this as far as I know.
  14. Since the Tokyo Marui Glock magazines allegedly work with the stark arms magazines why not buy a bunch of the TM magazines with the shooter design extended base plates? Or by the TM G 17 competition mags which already include the extended base pads?
  15. RS Base pads are going to be tight enough they'll be a PITA to open up to add gas. They're great for show, but not entirely functional. Just my 2 cents.
  16. I have a couple brand new spares but it wasn't cheap. They're not entirely common. If you're genuinely interested in it I can sell it to you and mail it.
  17. Cali has it's pluses and minuses. The fact that much of the country is hunkered down for a miserable winter while I'm walking around in t-shirt and shorts is one of them. LOL The law regarding the threaded barrels is that it implies intent to suppress. It's pretty stupid. And it's totally OT. But I like the look of it on my airsoft M&P and that's all that matters. The threaded barrel is just one of WE's thread extensions with a knurled thread protector. It came bundled together in a package listed as ADM (as in "American Defense Manufacturing"). LOL. And it is quite clearly NOT an ADM
  18. I have a stormlake threaded barrel but I don't have it installed in the gun due to CA laws. The WE M&P I find to be a gamble. It could be awesome, it could also be a complete POS. The real M&P is a great gun. Not quite as accurate as a Glock past 25 yards but still a good gun. Trigger is meh though. Get that upgraded with new sights as soon as you get it.
  19. 10-8 don't make any +2 mag bases as far as I know. They do make an extended mag base for easier stripping and to work with their new mag wells.
  20. How are you liking the GunsModify SAI slide? Is the RMR real or replica? I was just sent some product samples to test. A pleasant surprise since I didn't know they were in the works ... I do love these base pads and use them on my real M&P. These will apparently be available for G series guns (a KSC version and a TM version) as well as WE M&Ps. They're CNC'ed from aluminum and are hard anodized. The dots are used to number and keep track of your mags and can be painted with whatever paint or nail polish of your choice. Very nice quality.
