I've actually looked at those grips quite a few times but I just couldn't
see myself buying them just yet. I know Mike will get some, if I recall
correctly it stood that he'd have them in stock late 2013. Don't go buy
all of them so I can order one ok?
The 5.1 kit is coming on monday. However the 4.3 stuff did arrive this Friday.
eHobby was kind to send me two extra hammer protection plates! Yay! Sadly
...when I saw the slide, Friday wasn't as epic as I assumed it'd be. The slide
was mislabeled. It's for the XDM. Beautiful slide, but still.
The package clearly states it's for XDM but the store label says ' Shooters
Design Ballistic .40 Slide for Marui Hi-Capa 4.3/Xtreme.45 (Black)'. I wonder
how I would get in touch with them to sort this out? Did this sort of stuff
happen to any of you guys?
I spent most of the day to assemble and fit the new frame. I had some issues
to get it all fit properly, but in the end after some minor filing etc, it's all there.
I decided to put the original plastic slide on it for now. In the process I sadly
chipped some paint off the new frame around the area where the left thumb
safety is but...whatever.
Things I will get before I concider the 4.3 finished.
- Gunsmithbros Outer Barrel, oxided in gold(comp ready)
- Gunsmithbros Aluminium Compensator (black).
- Shooters Design Ballistic .40 Slide
- Airsoft Surgeon SV Trigger base & front parts.
- Thumb Safety
- Slide Catch
- Mag Release
- Gold oxided bolts?
Enjoy the current shots.
