Hi josh,

Looking at mg-props' site, it's described as a full metal model so it'll be a standard YT Corp. product.

Is it just a new finish on the original version?

I don't know to be honest! Other YT models I've seen are black but this Glock looks like a very nice grey.

Do you think it could be down to the fact the photos appear to be taken in daylight which I know from experience can make black look grey if the camera isn't adjusted ?

Perhaps an e-mail to Jay at mg-props would help clarify this.

I will. I had one, but sold it because of the poor finish and poor markings and sand paper grip! This one looks completely different.

Hi,
Honestly, I think it's just the same than before. The only difference is real good photos!!
Maybe a new silver slide recoil rod and maybe a very good finish among others Smile
Full métal is good but not for all models....

Let us know what mg-props tell you please josh.
If this grey finish is a true representation I'd be tempted to buy one myself Very Happy

Will do, mine was an ugly shiny black which was so thick it killed detail!

Can only tell you guys that Wa Shan (as well as some Taiwanese airsoft guns) will sometimes change the finish of their guns slightly without prior notice (or shall I say lowered-than-expected Production/QC standard)...obviously imcomparable to Japanese/German standards Wink

Same old Glock, a good finish one, good photo. 100%
Wa Shans quality does vary batch to batch as Jim says.

The German standards have also declined in recent times also. Wink

Yep, you guys were right, same gun with a different finish.

Amazing what a difference the different coats of paint make.
