My FO stunt but not gb came with a silver guarded switch while the BR other half of the staff came with the red centre. Easy to match with just a bit of nail polish. I prefer to have just a silver button or now the new av choice.  Hm, interesting. It may also depend what is on hand. I'd imagine they order huge crates of these switches and use them as needed. I only have two hilts with guarded switches (so far) and they're my Sentinel yellow Aeon V2s, so they have silver switches. (they match the hilts nicely) All of my grab bags (so far) have come with AV switches, which are always a welcome upgrade.  |

that might work for the females in the forum....don't think too many of the males will be running out to buy or ask to borrow some from someone.
I'd pick up a bottle just to modify a hilt. Though, I'd imagine hobby paint would work too, provided you put some clear over it. However, it is a good idea for dudes to keep some cheap nail polish remover on hand. It's not as corrosive as straight acetone and takes paint transfer off of blades nicely. |

Thanks guys Kinda wondering about some O-Rings in the grooves, then some heat shrink over the choke point and hilt, leaving just the emitter and switch sections in silver... wonder how that would turn out.... *facepalm* lets take care of the other two projects first, shall we? lmao |

Nice set of sabers, skullsquadronx. Seeing all of these great sabers really makes me want to pull the trigger on another grab bag or two. |

My son's Christmas grab bag saber finally arrived! I believe this is a windowed Apprentice v4 with an AV switch. Very happy with it  Annnnnd the color.... Guardian Blue, which he will love.  I really love the look of the windows on this, I was hoping for windows and got it. Super happy with my firs US purchase and first grab bag saber, and now I really want to order one for myself! |

Very nice loot you've got there! The only windowed Grab Bag saber I've received out of the 3 that I've purchased so far is the Liberator V3. My Apprentice LE V4 is my favorite, I think, but was not windowed. I very much like the look of the windowed version - thanks for sharing! -1 Dark Side Point for you! |

Great saber, especially for a random first order. Aside from the windows, the AV switch is always a great upgrade. |
