I took all the busted up G19's from TTAC3 (loaner/training stuff). They'd had years of use, zillions of rounds through them and were massively abused.
Took most of 5 broken pistols and was still able to get one working one out them. Lots of parts left over, but not quite enough for a whole pistol.
I think Testtube took the rest of the box of stuff.
Same with a lot of Hicapa's...swap on a quality metal slide and a stiff recoil spring and the pistol (and nicely so their mags) will run for years and years and years.
I think MadMax is still running his first Hicapa....modded and hacked, but still going strong.

He ended up with a non-working KWA G19 and got me to try to fix it, wasn't able to so he basically gave it to me to use for parts. Unlucky for me, I took both my troublesome KSC G19s apart to pieces, plus the KWA, and took all the best to make one working pistol. And as what typically pisses me off, ran perfectly at home through a few mags, but go to use it (when I actually NEEDED it!) at the game and it spewed gas first shot. Tried another mag, same thing. So I said fuck it, bought a super sweet FMU KSC MK23 for a good price (my previous one was acting up and the slide was cracking), used that my last game last year. This year I have that and a Crosman C11 Automag to use. Don't have much time to work on, or trust, in my G19s anymore these days.
