Colour scheme? What do you mean? There's only black or black and stainless.

ya that's what i meant
and also, you know some of the hi capas liek the 5.1 we one sold on mopic, the colours are nice,
but stainless would be nice too.
Thing is if i buy a tm hi capa and a stainless slikde... that's like 400 bux LOL
plus i'd want like mag catch, safey, slide catch all stainless, that's liek another 100 or more O_O

More than 100$.
Illusion has some custom built pistols that you can have all of that. The reason to upgrade the slide is because if you're using propane, your slide will get bashed and so will your plastic outer barrel. You need to change those 2, plus the recoil spring, and then the little mag catch and all sorts..
Minimum of 500-600$ you're looking. And it will last longer.

Welcome to airsoft. It isn't cheap.

He can custom build one for you out of the top notch parts. He's the best Hicapa builder in Canada. And he has killer Hicapas too. PM him and talk about it.

I have two WE hi capas and I can barely get thru half a mag before running out of propane using both we mags and tm mags. Frustrating as hell gonna have illusion take a look. Will they be better running c02 mags?

[Crunchmeister]

Odd. I can get 2 full mags from one fill with mine.

WE hicapas have a really heavy metal slide that requires co2 to be used with it. Only way to use propane is to get another metal slide that would be worth the quality. But you're better off selling it and getting a TM hicapa to upgrade.

What I think is WE Hicapa should be only a starter gun, or a for someone who is on low budget.
But if you plan to upgrade, sell the WE and buy a TM and then upgrade. Much more reliable.

I would suggest not to get that Mopic WE Hicapa those models seem to have a worse make

IF you watch Crunhmeister's video that model of the WE Hicapa the plain slide is the better one to get as you have a higher chance of having a gun that can work out of the box.

Also CO2 mags are great and will make the gun work fine but it will evenutally bash up the outer barrel and hop up unit which will cause it too soon jam up since the hop up unit was so mashed it will be loose

If you are going to go for WE I would highly suggest the WE MEU but if you really really want the WE Hicapa go for the plain gun metal slide and not the fancier ones cause the fancier ones seem to break easier than the plain one

I think the exact opposite, why would someone want to buy a WE, then have to buy a TM later on? Better to get the TM first and have it perform better, last forever, and isn't much more expensive than the WE.

Well for those who have a WE why upgrade it when you can just get a TM?
That's what I'm trying to say. But for those who are on low budget, and don't want to upgrade parts, then the WE is better for them.

TM all the way!
