Custom Glock Frames....

[IndySSD]

I can't justify the cost for just a frame but if these were 100$ or less I'd have to get one......

Just get fancy with the duracoat, it will save you some $$$

I know some companies make frames for Glocks made of steel if you want a "all metal gun".
I never understood that since the whole point of Glocks is to be light weight and that the "plastic frame" works just fine.
Also if you have an after market frame, barrel, they even make after market slides for Glocks, new trigger, after market magazine ... well then it's not a Glock anymore.
I just like the factory Glock, nothing to add or remove IMO.

Did you see the wicked "Reaper camo" version?

Looks like something linkpimp would come up with!

It looks like it would cost $145 at rockyourglock.com

That's for the hydro finish (film dip) on a slide and frame. Finishing a frame alone costs $99.00, but the Timberwolf frame itself (pictured above) is $199.95.

And just FYI, rockyourglock.com does a lot of the finishing/laser etching/graphics for Lone Wolf.

Looks cool. I made a 9x21 "glock" without using any glock parts at all. wish I had never sold it

The all metal is to better distribute the felt recoil of the weapon and reduce muzzle climb/flip....say in a "snappier" caliber such as .40 it would allow for faster target acquistition and follow up shots....majority of the other accessories are just to make them more comfotable and more of a "combat" weapon

seriously considering building a g19-style system out of them lonewolf parts. just cause building is more addictive than breathing.

Best quote ever!

And I would like to build a glock from the ground up with no Glock parts too. I think it'd be fun.

 

[mvician]

Well you will have to use some GLOCK parts.........(internals)

 

[twostepadin]

actually im pretty sure they sell all the trigger/spring kits themselves as well. though i could be wrong about that.

 

[the1kidd03]

they sell everything for them somewhere....some of the custom competition Glocks I've seen don't even look like Glocks if it didn't have Glock engraved on the side of the slide

Yes they (Lone Wolfe) sells all the small parts but they are just repackaged GLOCK parts that they buy in bulk.

 

[Jtgarner]

Yeah I guess there are a few parts that would have to be Glock brand: extractor, firing pin sleeve and cups, etc.
I am only 23 and have no plans to have any kids any time soon, but if I had a son I would build him a glock as he was growing up ( he could help as he got old enough), so his first handgun would be hand built and kind of a keepsake to pass on.
