With the SFW barrel it's a solid bit of kit! I haven't gotten any wobble out of it, and the only thing I had to modify was bending the tabs on the rail covers. It clamps down aswell so you're gonna be hard sought to get it to shift.

If you've got a TM D-ring though, I'd suggest getting the split ring type that the CA M15's come with.

Nicely Done, Lerch. I tried to build a SFW back in the day with King Arm's 16" barrel and CA' CQBR and that definitely looks a lot better with the heavy barrel.

Here's my C8 SFW (British L119A1)



I'm still waiting for a proper L119A1 body.

External Parts used:
Guarder C8 Metal Body set
TM stock
Guarder Rubber Butt Pad
Guarder Large pistol Grip
G&P Knight's RAS set
Army Code L119 outer barrel
China ACOG

Internal Parts used:
Reinforced gear box
Systema Aluminum piston and head set
PDI 170% spring
Reinforced gear set
Silicone low resistant wires
Systema Magnum motor (makes a world of a difference in performance)
Prometheus 6.03 M4 barrel (will get longer one soon)
Guarder one piece hop up unit

Fitting:
Need to dremel the RAS's back ends a little shorter for it to work with the Guarder body + Army Code Barrel. Other than that, everything fits like a glove.
Gas tube from the RAS kit is has to be cut about 10mm shorter on the back end to fit the Guarder body.

Performance
385 - 395fps with 0.2g BB consistently
The Systema Magnum motor will crank up your rate of fire, as well as eliminate the back-winding of your gear box, I'm in love with the magnum motors. Rate of fire ~860 rpm

Remarks
The Guarder body has 2 extra fake pins on the lower receiver, not found in another metal receivers.
-Pin number one above the selector switch, pin number two behind the magazine catch
Ejection port will pop open while charging handle is pulled
100% correct markings of a C8 SFW including the maple leaf and Diemarco trade marks.

Army Code L119 barrel is the only available C8SFW/L119 barrel in the Airsoft market, it has Diemarco trademark and correct markings. Note that is a 16" heavy barrel, longer and beefier than that of a standard American M4A1 barrel.

Guarder Large pistol grip is the closest grip I can find to match the oversized pistol grip in the L119.

G&P RAS kit has proper numbers on each rib and also features a gas tube that runs from the gas block to inside of the upper receiver.

China ACOG (from Huang) has Trijicon ACOG marking on one side as in the real deal, also has NSN on the other side!!

I'd love to throw the L119 body on it once it is available !!

[KenC]

That's right, Satellite Battery sling, runs a 9.6V 3000mA Sanyo large battery, shoots AWESOME!

Any up dates?

[Lerch]

Project was dropped...for obvious reasons

[Sterling]

Your L85? Where did you get your Army Code L119 Outer Barrel? I have been searching for one and cant find one? Also what would you suggest using for the grenade launcher?

[Sterling]

Whoops! Didnt see that! Thanks!

[plasticdeath]

on what site can we get the guarder large grips and recoil pad? can anyone share it? thanks

[Polar Nova]

It is looking good thus far. Good luck with your plans.

[Cassius]

Massive Defense updated their website. Did you notice the L119 triangle front sight on the splash image? I can't seem to find it in store though.

Anyone able to get one? it's an Army Code product.
