I would log it as a frame, with no caliber designation, that is how I used to do frames, but I have not had any for quite a while now. I am sure that if someone who has knows more they will chime in on the newest rendition of logging them in.

Quoted:
Been seeing more and more of these come in. Glocks don't have the model number or caliber stamped on the frame. How is everyone logging these into their A&D books? On another note, had a TC Prohunter frame (no barrel) come in....do I leave the caliber blank? No model, no caliber, no BBL length. Check to see if made in USA or Austria, be sure to add importer markings if made in Austria. |

Yep. There are 2 relevant Glocks...
Glock GmbH (the manufacturer in Austria) and Glock, Inc. (the importer and manufacturer in Smyrna, GA) You're supposed to list the manufacturer and then the importer (if imported) but this doesn't seem to undergo much scrutiny by ATF (even on NFA forms). |

I wonder how many FN/Browning Hi Powers are recorded with: - FN as the manufacturer (not all are marked with FN) - no model name (Hi Power/High Power/GP35/P35 (no model name appears on the pistol) ATF doesn't give a rats ass if you write Glock or Glock/Glock. When they call for a trace it's "Glock", not "Glock, imported by Glock". |

I actually called Glock about this because I was curious.
The lady I spoke with (forgot to write her name down) informed me that Glock does not sell stripped frames to dealers/wholesalers. They only sell them to individuals as replacement frames for ones that are damaged. I asked her about the Frames I was receiving from Glockstore and she said they have never sold them stripped frames. Now I'm pretty sure that once a receiver is built into a firearm, it's never a receiver again. Could be wrong. Anyways, back on topic. We log them like this: Make: Glock Model: N/A Serial: XXXXXX Caliber: N/A Type: Frame |

The only Title I receiver that cannot become one again... is a Title II MG. Even the stripped receiver remains a Title II MG until it's destroyed (DEMIL). |

You can narrow the caliber down by the size of the frame. The ejector will also tell you some about the caliber. Example. The Glock 22 and 17 have the same frame but use a different ejector.

It's correct to not list a caliber.
Just like with stripped AR or Rem 700 receivers, it makes no difference what calibers it's "capable" of being built into. |
