Well its a good think your my friend. You can hold my hand the whole way if I cant figure it out! Or you can even buy it off me if I fail haha. The one Im getting has a few nice upgrade parts on it.

Hehe. Weak blowback usually means a broken piston head or muzzle.

Either that or he inadvertently caused the gun to short stroke with a very strong powered spring causing a lot of resistance when the slide travels back.

There's really a lot of issues that may cause this.

You're a vet with GBBs Jordan!!! I'm sure you can fix it :D

EDIT:
Got the Detonator Big Dot on KSC G19. Sec-ceee!!!!!
Though I still like the standard three dot trits like RacingManiac....

Nope no luck there.

If I can't find a complete set I will settle with the front sight post only as that is all I really need...

Also will the TK twist g17 barrel work with a g18?

Yes. That will work on an G18c. Though keep your FPS output to below 330fps otherwise it starts acting funny. I have two of those installed in both a G17 and an 18c. They are probably my prefered choice for an inner barrel.

I can't give you direct links since you aren't verified. But I can tell you that some of the major retailers out there has them in stock...

Get the sexier 3 dot sights. They're much more efficient IMO.

I have to be age verified in order to receive part links? Shocking.

Well, would a "real steel" front sight work with the g18?

I've seriously exhausted every search engine looking for sights.

Also, is the nineball featherweight piston a good upgrade to you or is it not worth the time?

As for getting age verified I'm screwed, I don't even live in Canada LOL!

The Gunsmodify ones work....I have them now on my G19 and G17...I also have RS Truglo on my KSC USP...

Also, where could I find a floating valve and selector switch :S

I hear Echigoya in Japan is the best place for parts like that.

The catch is that you have to get in touch and request them. They're not just put out on their online catalog.

Haven't personally fitted one but I've heard a lot of people seem to able fit them with some modifications. The rear sight won't fit though.

Look a bit harder. I'm looking at a site right now that has them in stock...

It depends on what your trying to do with the gun. I only use them on steel slides to reduce the weight and create a better cycle with the heavier steel slide.

But if you're running it with a regular Aluminum slide, it will lighten your slide assembly by a lot and will give a super slick cycle if you couple it with a few good upgrades.

The G18c slide is light enough, TBH. Especially with the compensated slide and barrel. The Nineball BBH is about half the weight of the stock BBH maybe even more. If you're slide is cycling just fine, I dont think it is necessary to replace it.

Again tokyo model company carries both of those parts. You just have to email them directly.

Or as Danke suggested try echigoya.

For the floating valve, there are myriad of aftermarket replacements for the 18c. You don't have to buy a stock one. Remember that a G17 floating valve will on the G18c. So if you can't find one that is designated for a G18c, you can buy a G17 one.

Do they have featherweight BBU for G17?

I've had RS front sight on my G17. The screw that came with it(Trijicon tritium sight) is too long on the airsoft(guarder) slide and cracked the vial so it stopped glowing....You also need to fit the dowel portion of the sight into the slide as the shape is different...

Thanks RM.

The Nineball lightweight BBH can be had at most of the major retailer overseas. I have three here but they are beaten half to hell...

RacingManiac November 30th, 2012 16:14

I edited my question...its only for G18C though right? I was hoping they have them for the G17....

The nineball one is for the G18c only. AIP is the only the guys that made a lightened BBH for the G17 But it needs some filing to get the proper slide cycle or crispieer. Plus it is still a bit heavier than the nineball one.

RacingManiac November 30th, 2012 16:35

Noticeably lighter than stock though?

Seems to be OOS everywhere also like most of the AIP parts...bummer...
