Airsoft Canada - View Single Post - Hi-Capa 4.3 : Creation Outer Barrel Compatibility with PGC slide

Thanks guys. So lets see.. the only comp set that would look decent on my gun would be the PDI JB comp set for the 4.3. $160.. hmm.. What other options do I have?

So with this setup, I would be able to reuse my slide, the chamber, and an extended inner barrel? And it would cycle as reliable as stock again as it did before with the plastic chamber.. Is this an accurate deduction?

I also thinking that I might be able to save the slide's damage a little bit, since I examine the lugs 3A and 3B, and they are not totally gone. 3A is shaved, while 3B has been etched in but there is still some material there. What if I put some epoxy there, or better yet put up some nylon plastic and superglue it to fill in the damage, and sand it smooth. Might not be a total fix, but at least any additional damage would be done to nylon plastic which I can easily replace. Would that be able to help?

Also, I haven't figured this thing out. How come the stock chamber works while the steel one doesn't? Is it a weight issue?

Assuming that I haven't had damage to lugs 3A and 3B, have what I had done to the slide lugs 1 and 2 and to the chamber lugs been helpful at all, or did I not need to do all that work at all?
