chris u'5 Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) What do you think of the slide Rom? It looks OK. Im picking up a TM Glock soon to compare it with the KSC and Im on the look out for a good quality slide. I've been leaning towards the PGC metal slide (I just want plain black at the moment) Im definitely going to get one of the Guarder frames though.

Romulus Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 The slide is average. For the price of the full tune up kit it's quite reasonable. Honestly though, nothing beats the feel of steel Glock slides in my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Romulus Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 I don't really have that much experience with standard metal Glock slides. I really love the Avalon steel slide that I am currently using on my G17. My only complaint about it is that the trades are not quite deep enough. Also, based on how good my Guarder steel G26 slide is I would guess that the Guarder steel slide for the G17 would be my first pick of a slide if someone where to give me any one that I chose. If monay permits I would like to pick one up for testing. The things that I like about the steel slides are; the added weight (It makes that gun feel more realistic and hefty as well as giving it more kick), the nice finish (nothing feels more like steel than steel, no pot metal or aluminum can match it), accuracy of materials (Glocks are steel slided), and fit (at least in my case the steel slide is much tighter than say the Guarder slide that I currently have).

Romulus Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 No problem. hkssr20det - I forgot to ask, does the MGC have a barrel running all the way to the end of the comp? Is it one of those old custom 'cyclone' barrels? It would be fun to see some chrono reading on the gun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BP-anon Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Are the Meister g17 mags any good? They're mighty tempting at $14... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
willwizard Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 No they're horrible, avoid them. Compared to the TM mags they suck. Mine leaked from day one because they left out an o ring. Also the valve sticks out a little so it gets stuck in the gun. Meister mags are also very tight in TM guns but TM mags work flawlessly in Meister guns. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

aznriptide859 Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 KWA G23F with newly acquired KSC G23F Metal Slide w/ Trademarks. Trades are misaligned by 1-1.5mm, and took some time to fit, but IMO it's fine...it's the only slide available for the 23F anyways. Trades are painted on, not engraved. VERY smooth texture to the slide - better than KWA by a long shot Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chris u'5 Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 There has been a bit of discussion about this already. If you look through some of the older posts you'll find some info. Junior has done a review of it too. The general opinion doesn't seem to be all that great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aznriptide859 Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 WhutJP, gun works very well with an upgraded recoil spring; it just takes some breaking in to do; after 50 or so shots the slide cycles smoothly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

whosloosin92 Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I'm actually not sure what it is. The pattern continues inside the frame and in the magwell. I've never seen one like this, I bought it from someone at a large Op a few years ago when I was pretty new to airsoft. I'm fairly certain though that its not real carbon fiber.
