You know...that'd look so much better with a silver guide rod...

Shooters Design Steel Chamber For more details on the barrel bushing system, see this post: http://www.airsoftcanada.com/showpos...8&postcount=28 Unfortunately, I don't know which Shooters Design slides have the barrel bushing channel. I can say for sure that the Hybrid slides, and the "MRP-OPS" slides don't have it.

Hey Shinjin, maybe you should swap out to a silver guide rod and sell the black one to...someone...

Are you looking to buy one, Alex? I got one for sale. hahahahahahaha.

Out of curiousity - is the performance of the 5.1 maintained? A 5.1 was my first airsoft pistol, I was kind of spoiled. Only the P226 I have since was comparable, but not as accurate (could be mods). All others... lack.

yup; Illusion pretty much nailed it regarding the bushings
I also have a hybrid combo for my other hicapa setup and well...a bushing would totally defeat the purpose of a hybrid setup and no, you guys can go to hell; I love the all black lower and the all silver uppers on slide lock I shot this offhand at about 20 feet, with a slight hangover, so Ill say accuracy is pretty good two groups, top is with toytec .28's, bottom is with KSC .25's I think I need to adjust the sights slightly... |

If anything, I'd say the steel barrel bushing system improves the performance.
