Anyone else building one?  I got my 80% lower, jig and tooling set and just ordered a Lone Wolf Glock 22 compatible slide, parts kit, poly80 finishing kit, stainless guide rod and spring and some carry sights.  Hopefully this whole thing will go together pretty easily.

I just got all the other parts to complete it over the weekend...  Hopefully I will have it together soon.

Dohh!  I lost one of the little spring cups while putting the slide together...  Now I gotta wait until the replacements I ordered come in...

I was able to buy a set of spring cups from an LGS so my Lone Wolf slide is now assembled.

How did it turn out?

Been looking at these pretty hard, but being so new there's not a whole lot of tutorials and information on them.

Just a couple youtube videos of guys using hand drills\ drill presses without the vices locked down. Looks pretty crude.

I've only got the slide put together so far.  Next step is to finish the frame.  That looks simple enough.  Several people have already posted youtube videos of doing it using only a dremel with sanding drums to mill off the front part to accept the slide and recoil spring, dremel with a cutting wheel and then a file to cut the rear slide rail slots and a hand drill to drill the pin holes.  I've got a drill press and an XY vice so it should be pretty easy.

Finished up the frame last night and assembled it this morning.  Function tests O.K., off to the range tomorrow to test fire it.
