Slow250 Posted July 28, 2019 Author Share Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) Thanks. I’m on the notification list for when they get them (stripped). Anyone know of anyone who has them in stock? Edited July 28, 2019 by Slow250 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slow250 Posted July 28, 2019 Author Share Posted July 28, 2019 I checked there first... There is currently one, it’s been Zevved and is $480 bucks. Lots of 3s and 4s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slow250 Posted July 28, 2019 Author Share Posted July 28, 2019 I really appreciate everyone wanting to be so helpful, but I’m looking for a stripped Gen 5 frame for a 9/40 specifically. I’ll post here if I find one in case anyone else is looking as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dskinsler83 Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 At the moment the Gen5 is 9mm there are no 40 Gen5 frames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slow250 Posted July 29, 2019 Author Share Posted July 29, 2019 I’m going straight to an aftermarket slide that is milled for the optic I use. I have the other parts, so it doesn’t make sense for me to get another full gun. The link you provided is so far the best deal, but Big Tex advertises stripped slides for 100 shipped. I’m on the notification list for when they come in stock. I’m not in a huge hurry, I’m just building a backup gun. I was hoping to find another store with a similar deal.

Rpope423 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Are you sure that slide will fit a gen 5 frame? Gen 5 frames are not compatible with gen 3-4 slides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dskinsler83 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Yes they are. Good lord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dskinsler83 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Also to the OP you are waiting on a $100 frame when by the time you put in a locking block, pins, slide release, magazine release spring, mag release, slide lock and slide lock spring, and a trigger assembly even OEM you are gonna be around the same as the $175 cost. And unless you have your own FFL or live in the same area as Big Tex you also have a transfer fee, back ground check, and shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have spare parts and I don’t use the OEM triggers. The transfer will cost me the same if I spend $100 shipped or 175 plus shipping so I’d prefer $100. As for the slides, Gen 5 aftermarket ones are out, no need to use an older gen. Let’s get back on topic. Looking for a place selling stripped Gen 5 full size frames.

dskinsler83 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 And again a Gen5 frame will work with a diff slide. The issue will be your barrel. The Gen5 barrel is of a G19 barrel foot design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dskinsler83 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 And didnt know anyone other than Zev had released a Gen5 specific aftermarket slide yet, news to me but good news. And I was just trying to point out you arnt gonna save all that much as if you have all those frame parts as spares already then that would clearly indicate you wanted to have spares? So you would just be purchasing them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
