TM G Steel front base and hammer housing review
Today we are going to review the Guns Modify Steel CNC front base and hammer housing for TM G series .
All these 3 parts are full made by 5 axis cnc with steel and QPQ surface finished . All key date made in 1 process .
Check this video to show how we make these parts . -->check here!<--
Ok , let’s check the products .
Whole family . Steel / 5 Axis CNC made / CO2 ready ...,we see something on the label.
We start from the front base .
We see the main difference from TM to Guns Modify , we will find out why .
We hold the TM front base , and push the inner barrel set down and mark “Zero” with a heavy steel .
Then push the inner barrel set up , we can see it moved from the “Zero” about 5mm . That’s cause by the gap of the front base and the hopup unit . It will became swing left and right if we hold as a gun . That’s why airsoft IPSC shooter always saids Hicapa was more accurate than Glock in airsoft .
The same test with Guns Modify products . Mark the “Zero” first .
And then push the barrel set . Very small gap , we put a white paper behind to let you see the gap clearly .
Second , TM base nothing to support the hopup unit . It cause the hopup unit swing up and down when blowback .
Guns Modify front base fully support the hopup unit .
We improved the Glock just like Hicaps , when the gun was complete install , hopup unit almost fixed , will not swing when shooting .

No.2 , hammer housing For TM G17
We add a mag stabilizer as TM G18C into G17 hammer housing .
This break point always kick my ass ```````
That’s why we make it with steel .
We plan to make it with aluminum and steel before , but after some consider , we only make with steel . More harder in produce but a large improve in product life . Especially use 150% hammer spring / use co2 / dry fire all the time .
...
No. 3 Hammer housing For TM G18C
Not a big improved but steel , but we already cut the corner for our stainless steel auto sear .
See what will happened if you use a harder hammer spring and TM date steel auto sear .
Please check our stainless steel auto sear ,the contact point as wide as the nozzle housing contact point . And we changed the angle of the sear , only 1/4-1/3 release force of TM stock sear .

At last : A lot of peoples ask me this question . If I use a steel front base and hammer housing , will the slide wear out quicker than aluminum ?
The answer is NO !!!! Because most of the wear out cause by the chippings . They go into the gap between slide and housing , just like a sand-paper . Even you polished the slide and housing they will scratch each other very quick . If one side is hard enough it will reduce the scratch .
And on the other side, all about money . haha , check below ,you will know which is the best and right way to save money .
Below is Hypothesis~~~Not the real test result.
Hypothesis:We set the slide and housing gap is 0 at beginning . And when the gap reach to 100 , you will throw away the parts and buy a new one .
Hypothesis every single blowback :
aluminum with aluminum will wear out 0.5 at each side .
aluminum with steel will wear out 1 in aluminum side and steel will wear 0 . (That’s true , for aluminum , steel is much harder ) .
1, left(Al slide + Al housing ) = right (Al housing +Al slide ) = 1 , Total 2 .
After 25shots the gap will be , 25left+25right=50
After 50shots the gap will be , 25left+25right=100
After 100 shots you have to buy a new al slide + new al housing .
2, left(Al slide + steel housing ) = right (steel housing +Al slide ) = 1 , Total 2 .
After 25shots the gap will be , 25left+25right=50
After 50shots the gap will be , 25left+25right=100
After 100 shots you ONLY have to buy a new al slide , that’s all !!!
You can use a steel front base and hammer housing for a very long time ( You don’t use steel sldie , right ? haha .)
Have a nice day and happy shooting !
