If you remove the metal piece at the front of the slide gently and then slather is with JB weld and put it back in , it should hold up I've only just done it . Some of the HRC discord members say that will fix it forever even once it's cracked

Well if you want any other opinions or anything on the slide or testing let me know happy to give it a try. The slide linked above is good but not perfect so happy to try out another version.

No issues with layer adhesion? That was the main issue I found in general, albeit a different design although I'm sure it's fairly similar

What happens is overtime the metal re-enforcement comes loose and then the plastic hits when the slide reaches full travel. So if your metal re-enforcement is loose it's a matter of time. Mine lasted me 4/5 years of light use till it cracked. If you JB weld it in then I'm theory it should never...

Also did the thought of CNCing one on your home CNC cross your mind ? Asked a local company near me and they wanted £1000 for a single slide unless I ordered 100 they were ridiculous money

Whats you plan for print orientation? Managed to get the slide I linked printed in pla to hold up to testing but every other filament I tried just broke along the layer lines. I tried abs,ASA, petg, ASA CF and pa6 cf.

It is a bit of a faff to get it working but better than no slide. 😂 If anyone has a slide that's not cracked take the metal part out the slide and JB weld it in supposedly that will fix it even once it's cracked but not broke off

Join the club lol.  But it'll be fine mines been like this since I got it a few years ago been through a number of game days and more backyard plinking than most guns do in there entire life, other than the trigger set wearing out not missed a beat ?

What silencer are you trying to fit to it aswell as thatll affect how it is done

@hockeymaster350  What are the outside and inside measurements of the barrel that will depend if it can be threaded or not. Is there any other diffarences between that and the already threaded barrel, Some Pistols wont work with a silencer due to the extra weight. Plus if you have a lathe that...

Made up a set of safety deletes for the vector today?

Definetly get hold a spare sear set if you can find  any, i also second the airsoft enginuity hop set over the maple leaf one , ive had both and seem to have more luck with the fixed hop. as RDB said dont lose the torch plug or thats it gone forever!!!!!! Spare hammers and springs come up time...

Looks like a g36 handguard  ?

Other than smelling shit that should be fine
