Guys, remember that KWA and KSC parts are interchangeable. While some of the external (and a few of the internal bits, due to frame size differences) might be different, you can still get plenty of KSC/KWA Glock series parts from overseas vendors.

You can still find pretty much all the parts you want for the G17, even if they don't really make it new anymore.

If you want KSC/KWA, go for a G19. They're the compact version of the G17. They also seem a bit more plentiful, if still a bit hard to find new through Canadian retailers.

Also, real Glocks aren't "full metal," so there's no point in looking for a metal airsoft version.

People like the KSC/KWA Glocks because they are 1:1 with the real thing. TM and their clones are actually larger than real Glocks, and therefore can't use real sights and holsters and whatnot.
