  1. I'm really not buying that. Where's the solid rail in their range? Too much detail on the PEQ's. I'm not convinced this is airsoft at all. more like a promo shot for a real steel or Pelican.
  2. Another Nova kit. Springfield markings aren't as crisp as on the ProWin. the font they've used isn't quite right and it's missing the FIBRAZIL (frames are made in Brazil) on the front of the frame. The Springfield logo could be a little clearer. Could just be the silver one though. It's not polished, it's coated (maybe nickel). Review early next week on the black one will confirm this. Nice to build though and not as much stuffing around to get the slide action right as there is on a ProWin or certainly a Guarder. Nice to have a kit with the correct forward cocking grips on the
  3. I did always want a tricked WA but I reckon I'd be too scared to skirmish with it. At least I'll use this.
  4. They polish up fine. 180 grit to break the surface and then 400 wet and dry to clean it up before some Brasso or Silver Polish. Beaver tail was a drop in part. The frame on the Nova kit is as close to the TM frame as I've seen. Even the trigger sear stays full width.
  5. I'll get a flat one when I can. Only seen silver so far. Beaver is around $60. Pricey but the fit and colour is good.
  6. BoomArms. Also got the grip safety from them. No idea on the grip safety make. It's a new crowd and it's specifically for the TM. I was a bit late to get on the WA metal kit boat hkssr20det. Glad I didn't now though as I've 7 1911 style guns that all take the same mags.
  7. The Nova Kimber SWAT kit arrived. It comes in a plastic bag as you can see in the picture below. The beaver tail is an extra and doesn't come with the kit. Markings on the frame, slide and chamber are of good depth and clarity. Chamber and barrel are one piece. Other bits included are a spacer, sights, locking pins and threaded oters for the grips. It even comes with some handy hints in English. The sights have little dimples for aiming. these are all in black. I intend to kiss these with a drill bit to make them silver as on the ProWin kits.
  8. Premier Plating They're just around the corner from me in Walthamstow, London. They do gold and silver plating.
  9. That's handy to know. Cheers. Still saved myself £150 quid doing it this way.
  10. Just got back from the platers. Needed silver bits for the Springfield and looking at Guns N Guys it was going to cost a small fortune (not to mention the hassle of wiring money instead of Paypal). Decided to sand the black off and get them nickel plated. Only added microns in thickness which is what I would of sanded off anyway. All the bits still fit and function fine.
  11. Got a couple of things done today. I've a confirmed delivery date of the 20th for the Nova Kimber SWAT kit. WIll post picture of it later in the day. Also been to the platers today and dropped off all the little bits and bobs for nickel plating ready for my Nova Springfield kit in silver. This should be here this week also. Then after trawling the net I found a full auto 1911 on you tube that some old boy had modified. You can see the link . I decided I wanted one too so I got tinkering. So far I've got full auto working fine and know how I'm going to switch to semi. Just
  12. Vandalism is a form of misbehaving.
  13. Be alright if the poo colour ones were cheaper. You're only going to metal body them anyway. lol
  14. Dug out a couple more. HK416 (HurricanE kit with Systema guts). Ugly gun. Immitation Barrett built on ICS SIR base.
  15. He just can't afford one that's all. This ought to explain your problem with the EBR
