Note on the White Poly80 frame. They yellow with age. Keep out off the sunlight. If you are hanging it up in your office. That is why I Dyed mine in Blue.

Thank you for that tip. I will hang it so the sun does not hit it.

Are there any kits that have a g19 sized frame with a 17 or 34 length slide?

You are looking for a P80 940CL but unfortunately I'm pretty sure they are discontinued.

MidwayUSA was the last I'm aware that had any but showing out of stock now.

I was bored today and had a muzzle device laying around so I opened it up for 9mm and put it on one of my polymer 80. Not sure if I will keep it on this or move it to my sub 2000.

I really need to find another project.

I've always hated the Glock 20 grip so I figured I'd give the PF45 a try in 10mm.  Glad I did.  It is MUCH better than the factory Glock grip.

I wish that Polymer 80 would bring back the 940CL frame. One has so many options with that frame. I have built several of them. The 940CL is also the easiest frame to modify for a Gen 4/5 slide to fit too.

Here are a couple of my 940CL builds. The FDE frame has a Polymer 80 brand slide and the Cobalt frame has a G34 Goon slide from 80P Builders. Both have Swampfox Kingslayer red dots.

Any slides or parts to avoid when building out a gst 9? I bought one on a whim and just want to make sure it cycles properly. I was planning to add an agency barrel PMM comp, and an rmr.

Thanks!

Yes there is. avoid anything from Rock Slide USA/RWG along with the Ebay seller ammomagusa. Unless of course you like to gamble because you have about a 50/50 chance of actually getting a slide from Rock Slide that actually works and doesn't break on you within the first 200 or so rounds.

I made the mistake of getting one of their G23 slides and it was out of spec, burrs everywhere, and excessive Cerakote that had to be cleaned up. I had to open up the front of the slide for the recoil spring assembly to fit along with the firing pin hole in breech face since it was too small. I had to deburr the firing pin channel, extractor groove and extractor plunger channel. I had to remove excess coating on the breech face. And I have yet to get any aftermarket barrel to work in the slide without issues. It will only function reliably with an OEM barrel.

Others have had their slides break right at the slide stop notch or at the nose where guide rod hole is.

Hopefully you guys that bought Rock Slides have good luck with them. You have a 50/50 chance of getting a good or bad slide from them.

What is the problem with Rock Slide you ask???????

There is plenty wrong with them starting with their lack of quality control. Seriously do a search on the forum for Rock Slide and you will see all of the people that have had issues with them. To include the slides breaking.


On my G23 slide, the guide rod hole and firing pin hole were both machined to small and and both had to be opened up just to install parts.


I also had some serious work to do in removing burrs everywhere to include:


  1.   firing pin channel
  2.   extractor groove
  3.   extractor plunger channel
  4.   breech face
  5.   back of slide where cover goes.



I also had to excess coating on the breech face and extractor groove (along with deburr) before the OEM barrel would even fit. None of the aftermarket barrels I tried will work with this slide. I even made sure to properly hand fit some barrels and they still don't work.


Rock Slide also does not properly heat treat and temper their slides. We have had many instances where the slides have cracked or broke.


  1.   Slide crack/break right at the slide stop lever notch.
  2.   Nose of slide break around the guide rod hole
  3.   Top of slide right in front of barrel break and peel like a banana.



9 times out of ten when someone has an issue with their build and they used a slide from Rock Slide, it has been found that the slides are out of spec.


Also their customer service is very lacking when it comes to taking care of customers that receive bad slides.


So yes there is a definite and legitimate reason why people do not like anything from Rock Slide USA and why we tell everyone to stay away from them

100 rounds through mine so far with zero issues so fingers crossed...

It functioned great right off the bat, bone dry without lube.  I know cracks will take time to appear, if they happen.  Hopefully the beefier 10mm slide won't have the same issues.

Thanks. I hadn't noticed any of the bad reports before buying the slide. If Lone Wolf had 21 slides in stock I'd just buy one and sell the Rock Slide on ebay. The way things are now, I guess I will be giving the Rock Slide a chance. It's too bad because I think they make a great looking slide.

It must be luck of the draw. Mine went together just as easily as my other slides. The breaking issue is concerning though. Maybe I will back order a 21 slide elsewhere.

The only other option that I have seen were some aluminum mag wells on Ebay for $65 or more.

And the Strike 80 is different enough that a magwell for a P80 or OEM Glock frame will not work.

I was curious about this, so I did a quick Google search. Found this on Reddit, posted a week ago:

I saw a post on here earlier saying the Strikes were being discontinued, and that MDX was receiving the last batch.

So, I reached out to Strike Industries for some clarification and an explanation. They were kind of confused as to why I would think this, so I explained that there some talk going around about it. They assured me that is not the case, and the next batch is CURRENTLY in production. We will be seeing the next major restock somewhere between 2-3 weeks, but likely right around the beginning of next month.

Strike Industries claimed the Strike 80 frames are neither permanently nor temporarily discontinued.

Can't you put a 17 slide on a 19 frame with just the addition of the little half moon filler under the front of the slide?  The 34 slide is a little longer than the 17, so couldn't you just find a bigger filler piece?

No you can not use a Gen 3 (or Gen 4) G17 slide on a Gen 3 G19 or 940C frame. The barrel lugs are totally different between the G17 and G19. Also the front locking block rails on the Polymer 80 904C (G19) and 940v2 (G17) are also different.

Yes, you can.  You just have to use a Gen 5 17 or an aftermarket 19L barrel.  There will be a gap between the recoil spring tab on the slide and the dustcover on the frame.  LoneWolf makes a piece that fills that in.  Or Brownells makes a 19L slide that is essentially a 17 slide with that area already filled in.  There's also the Glock 47 slide which is the same thing as the Brownells 19L slide, but it's never been released to the public.

Came out pretty well. Suarez G35 slide coated locally (Battleworn Burnt Bronze), the barrel shown is the .357SIG and the threaded .40 is elsewhere. I enjoy .40 suppressed a lot more than .357 comped, but all that extra weight by the muzzle makes it real easy to shoot.

Swampfox Justice + steel shield works well, though it did catch some soot and lube spray.

Will add a pic later.  Did a Poly 80 940C (19 size) last night to match my 26.  Had lots of trouble.  The jig had the pins being drilled a smidge too low for the rear insert but o filed the insert some to fix.  

Then the trigger would not release the firing pin.  So I had to remove a little material and it got close but no cigar.  Then I remembered I had a Glock 17 trigger and - connector in my parts bin.  That fixed it but I was really excited for the flat trigger.  Guess I will buy an overwatch.

May order another lower.   Do they sell it without the jig?

My new favorite P80
Top pic shows the most accurate color of the slide (metallic gray). The back plate is real silver so it should patina nicely over time.

Here is my contribution, Built it before doing much/any research (especially Rockslide USA though my slide seems fine so far)
The initial plan was econo Gucci after shooting a buddies P80 build with Lighting Tap SPSR trigger by Alpha One from Delta Team Tactical.
Which fixes the biggest complaint I've had with any Glock type pistol for years, making the trigger feel more like a 1911 than the usual cap gun Glock trigger
To date, one range trip 100 rounds down range no malfunctions whatsoever using magazines from
Glock, Magpul and A.C. Unity.

The PF940SC from Polymer80 is the one I'm aware of that made one in that size, but nobody seems to have them in stock.
Yes the 940SC is the same size as the G26/27/33. Polymer 80 makes their frames in batches. We are all waiting for the 940SC batch to be ran.

Only need a Strike 80 magwell, some sights and the droop fix before I'm calling this done...

Also, I've seen a bunch of people asking about holsters.

UM Tactical. I had to add two additional thin rubber spacers but after that she was good to go.

600 rounds down range, some stovepipes, BTF and misfeeds in first few hundred rounds.

I changed ejector to Gen 4, realized that the issues were probably related more to weak rounds: Blazer brass and weak reloads. The last 270 rounds ejected strongly and recoil was stiffer, zero misfeeds or stovepipes.

Note the split Glock magazine. It’s one of those non-drop free ones, the plastic overcoat split over the years. It still works, though.

My better Reloads were 147gr Ranier RN, 4.3gr VV N350 done in 2013 at about a dime per round.

Brownell’s slide, Silencerco threaded barrel, Glock slide parts, Rockey Brass frame parts, Brownell’s Coyote Polymer80 frame. Mags used are Glock, Magpul and a couple of no name, no witness hole magazines. I’ll have to try my Osprey suppressor on this.

Think I got my trigger issues figured out.  Thread protector on its way, time to think sights and optic.  This is some what a budget build so maybe Swampfox optic.  Sights I'm clueless on.

12 rounds of .45 ACP in a Strike80 frame.  Still waiting on a slide and barrel.

Just a FYI.  If you're looking for a holster that's as custom as your P80,  check out Legacy Firearms Co. It's a bit pricey and the wait is long (about 45 days or so), but the holster fits perfect regardless what you add to it. Most holster companies only accommodate certain brand firearms/optics/lights, Legacy realizes that there are more brands out there then just Glock, Sig, trijicon and surefire.

This holster is custom to my pistol
P80 frame
Swampfox optic
Olight Valkyrie mini2
suppressor height sights

Finished my first build, and it was a blast.

I may end up having to get one more before they clamp down on these.

Here is my latest build. It is a Lone Wolf Freedom Wolf 80% frame and a G44 22lr slide. It passed all safety/function tests and hand cycles dummy rounds just fine. I tested it out today by shooting 200 rounds of CCI Mini Mags and about 50 rounds of Aquila Super Extra. It worked great. Now if someone could just make a reliable and functioning optics cut slide for the G44 I would be a happy camper.
