Also my glock slide is rusting, while being covered in slip 2000 and being unused so, I guess I need to contact glock |

Seriously, great looking blaster. I have been doing some work on the polymer 80 frames recently. Has me thinking about building one myself for the shop for shits and giggles. TXPO |

 Attached FileThe top one has a Tactical Solutions .22LR slide assembly. I have a few 15 round magazines that aren't compatible with it for some reason, but I swapped followers from one of them and the 10 round magazine that is inserted in the pistol, and it works okay. The bottom one has a Swenson slide and 9mm threaded barrel, with Glock small parts and Trijicon suppressor sights. This is almost as addicting as building AR-15s. |

Only picture I have at the moment. Gray V2 frame, Brownells G17 slide w/ window, Brownells/Victory First threaded barrel, and Taran sights. The rest is mostly factory Glock parts with a Ghost Rocket connector. Trigger is great on this pistol. My TBRCI stubby comp showed up today, and I'll be installing it after I do an initial test fire.

It was an official-looking email from one of their employees that responded when I asked what was next for them. This employee also said some other cool stuff they have planned but further in the future. He wrote that the 26/27 compatible 80% frame was due out in 2018. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: You just reminded me, this is the one thing I noticed this weekend when firing. Ejection seems to come straight back. You said you managed to fix this. What did you do? Easiest- Try different/better ammo if you haven't already. If it ejection improves with better ammo, changing out parts may or may not fix it. Cheapest- Install Glock part# 30274 ejector. (which comes in a #30275 Glock gen 4 ejector housing @$8) Pull your 336 ejector out of the housing and install 30274 ejector removed from gen 4 housing. If this does not fix it you can try an Apex fail resistant extractor PN# 102-104 @$55 Comes with a new spring but you'll have to by a non-LCI bearing (Glock#SP01176) for the spring if your gun has an LCI bearing (Glock #: 2714S) There are several threads on this subject if you can manipulate the search tool to find them. I'm just a Glock noob and my experience is based on fixing my own handgun. If I got something wrong-the local gurus will correct me! |

Have yet to take it out but dry fired and really like lack of glock bump, and longer beaver tail. No effort to drop mag without breaking grip.

Finished this one up the other day. Just waiting on my TBRCI comp, which should be here tomorrow. Will probably add an RMR later on, but for now it has a cover plate from Maple Leaf Firearms. I didn't like the shape of the trigger guard, so I removed the hook from the front and smoothed out the lines to make it more Glock-like. Sorry for the poor pic quality, the frame color is much more OD looking in person.

question for those that have these P80 frames. I dont like stock glocks because when i grip the gun, a bone in my right (strong) hand thumb sits uncomfortable on the frame directly below the rear sight. basically when i squeeze tight the frame hurts my thumb bone (the one closet to the wrist. i wonder if the p80 frame helps with that?
