HFC Glock 26
 
Hey guys, would a TM metal slide fit an HFC glock 26?

From what i know, the HFC is a 100% marui clone.

Don't HFCs have a metal slide stock? Not sure what would be gained (other than looks) by swapping it.

I'm pretty sure that the HFC Glock 26 is a clone, I just swapped some parts and interchanged some springs from a salvaged TM Glock 26.

nah man the one im getting is a plastic slide.

I heard that propane/green gas is too strong for plastic slides so that eventurally the plastic ones will wear out alot faster than something that would weigh more

my 2 buddys have glock 26 1 a tm with plastic slide and a hfc with a metal slide....yes they can be swapped... id hafta say that a tm metal slide is the same as a plastic for fitting....

Nope. My HFC G17 is no where close to taking the TM G17 slide I have. Same the other way round. So not all HFC and direct fits.

If it's anything like the G17, the spring setup in the HFC is different. HFC uses a double spring recoil setup.

Highly doubt it. Propane is green gas. What are you going to shoot your gun with if both are "too strong' for the plastic slide?

My TM G17 is all plastic. I'm the 2nd owner and it has held up flawlessly with propane. Since I got it back in the spring, I've put through close to 100 mags worth and no issues whatsoever.

If you get a heavy metal slide, you'll have to change out the springs anyway.

G17 HFC mags will work on TM but not the other way around. Not 100% on the G26 but it's likely the same issue. Mag well in the HFC is too tight for the Marui mags to fit.

But can a metal TM slide fit on a HFC gun that was originally had a PLASTIC slide?

Thats because HFC cloned the TM G26 for the HFC Glock 17.

My plastic TM G26 slide fits on a HFC G26. And his metal slide fits on mine. So you can assume that a metal slide meant for a KjW G27 and TM G26 will fit on a HFC G26. If you can find a metal slide. Its easier to find the metal replacement slide for a HFC than a metal one for TM. The only one you can still find (but has been discontinued) is the guarder one for over 150 USD. Ive seen only a few places in the States that had the replacement HFC slide for around 40 USD.

Ah, that makes sense now. Too bad I got the HFC before reading that. Oh well, it shoots well enough for me to dual wield G17's
