Also for the glock does it have any metal at all? Thanks.

Metal slide for the TM Glock 17 is totally not necessary (though adds more felt recoil, higher fps, more "clink", more realism - at the cost of the slide and having one installed). Metal where it counts (most of the metal content is in the internals). TM plastics are surprisingly durable - I highly doubt you'll ever experience your slide breaking when shooting with propane with a stock TM plastic slide.
As to where you can order one? I have no clue - laws in Canada are a little different in terms of ordering/importing airsoft guns (short answer - we can't), and thus I haven't had experience with online/brick-and-mortar stores before.
Used KP8 (I presume that it is a
NS2 KWA, correct?) will likely need a shit ton of cleaning as most people don't know how to completely clean/maintain a GBB. I have to agree with you on the aesthetics part - a USP.45 looks waaaaay better than any Glock, IMO.
Edit: just read an earlier post of gera's saying that he owns a NBB. Depending on the make/model, some of those can be really awesome performers that last for years. Since there are less moving parts, reliability tends to be higher. Since there are less moving parts, everything usually fits tighter resulting in higher accuracy. NBB's do tend to shoot a little hot, and are (IMO) not as fun, but hell - why replace something if it isn't broken? Just putting that thought out there...
