This is a discussion on Aftermarket GLOCK PISTOL FRAMES within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I know these we mentioned in another past thread but, don't think that anybody posted an actual link to the site with photos.
Anyway here ...

This could be an answer to the ''not yet decided'' potential Glock buyer!!

Wouldn't that frame qualify as a Firearm in and of itself according to the BATF?
I'd be more interested if it had some wood grips. Of course this doesn't resolve the other issues Glocks have... namely unsupported chambers. But with an aftermarket barrel you would really have something.
Of course if you changing the barrels and frames and everything. Then why get the Glock in the first place if that's not what you wanted?
The more I think about this, the less sense it makes.

i would thing so George espically since it has the Serial # on it
the frame would be neat but then it kind of takes away the point of the glock in the first place dont it

I dont think it would be a great idea to go out and buy a new GLOCK that didn't feel good "in hand" and then go run out and buy an aftermarket metal frame for it.
I think lots of people already own GLOCKS and would possibly prefer a reconfigured/reshaped grip size ~ Style & angle. Lots of shooters already own one and do not shoot it as well as they originally thought they would.
Rather than spend the $200.00 to get the original polymer frame custom reconfigured...it would probably make more sense to buy an aftermarket frame (for about the same $) & that sure would look much better than a resin filled Dremeled Up original plastic frame.

A solution to a non-existant problem..........In my humble opinion.

I agree. If you don't like the way a Glock feels or the fact that it's polymer then just buy another gun. There are plenty of quality pistols on the market these days, if you can't find something that suits you then you ain't tryin'.

Why??? Why would you need to do this?? Why spend the money??? If you buy a Glock why would you make this change, Buy a Sig or an old S&W if you want a metal frame.

Why buy a vehicle and put fancy wheels on it when the originals will do just as well? Why put exotic leather on a holster that no one will see? It is a personal thing. I say "WHY NOT?" If you can afford it and want to.

i understand the rim and leather but the frame no that one i don't
your doing away with what the glock is in the first place a light weight gun with almost no corrosion issues with the lower part of the gun
sure you can say it gives you a better angle but this is another one of the mods like the manual Safety on a glock it just wasn't designed that way
