Nicely done.
Its the original plastic slide and frame unpainted. I want to resand it, or sell it. The TM Detonics is just about to be released

You should be able to wet sand the aluminum even if it is painted.

If your defender is "NEW MGC" most Western Arms MAGNA upgrade parts should fit without modification. Upgrade parts for SCWII, SCWIII, and MAGNA-TECH will not fit.

If you are not sure if it is "MGC" or "NEW MGC" check the frame for "UNDER LICENCE of W.A. MAGNA BLOWBACK" markings.
