Joe D Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 You can buy every single part for a Glock from several suppliers. The Caspian slide costs $199 with a dealer account at Brownells. The LWD barrel is $89. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The LWD barrel is $89. That's correct. You would also need a striker, extractor, etc, unless the Caspian comes with all internal parts. Does it Joe? If not, you may be better off $-wise, to get a used Glock of your choice and sell the frame. I'll buy the fame for the right price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe D Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 You will just blow up the frame. The slide is bare. It does not have the large hole in it, nor does it have the beveled front. They can bevel the front for $22. A SS frame with slide might be a pretty interesting combo. Plenty of weight there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chp5 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 You will just blow up the frame. I resemble that comment! Actually, the frame involved in the "incident" is still in service and running fine. The slide and barrel on the other hand . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatland Shooter Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 If not, you may be better off $-wise, to get a used Glock of your choice and sell the frame. I like that idea. Since I've never owned a Glock, I don't even know how many parts it takes to build one. I could get a used Glock for parts, save the frame, and when I decide to upgrade the metal frame with all new parts, rebuild and resell the old Glock.

Joe - I have a gift certificate to Brownells, but I can't find the Caspian Glock slide there. I've searched the on-line catalog and the hard copy I have. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe D Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 I will send you the catalog number when I get to work. They have 4 each of the G34 and G35 slides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolduckboy Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Doesn't look like i can add my THE brass magwell onto that frame. This is going to suck if i have to buy a whole new limited set-up to fit this new frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshF Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 (edited) Got to shoot my friends CCF this weekend. It's the stainless lower and he has a 35 slide on it. I only had minor loads available and it felt like a .22. He tells me major rounds don't feel like much more. The gun overall is HEAVY, I'm pretty certain it is heavier then my all steel 1911. Not much to say beyond that really. It feels and aims like a Glock, just doesn't recoil NEAR as much and the front checkering is more aggressive feeling on your hand. It looks to be the same cut/design, it's just sharper in steel. I also wanted to try the alternate backstrap but he only had the "glock" one with him. We are thinking that an Open Glock with this lower and a nice comp would shoot incredibly flat without much effort but nobody will know until they try I guess Edited May 21, 2007 by KSmoker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolduckboy Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 yeah I don't think, until they get a magwell feature, that i will get one at this point. For a limited it would be awsome to get rid of the muzzle flip but i like the way my reloads feel with the magwell on. Great information Smoke. thanks for posting.

JoshF Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Thanks for the report. Was he using the Glock slide or the Caspian slide? He's using a stock Glock slide except the front sight was a fiber. I think all the internals were stock as well (trigger sure felt like it) . We were talking a bit and he does have a Caspian slide somewhere that isn't being used. Can't remember if it is a 22 or a 35 though. I'll see if he might throw that together and see if it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suburban Commando Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 I might like one for my 21, but of course they don't make a large frame. All the mag funnels I've seen for Glocks are bolted to a slug plug type thing. There's no void at the back of the Raceframe because of the interchangable grip inserts. I think the article on the Raceframes is in the Guns Annual magazine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolduckboy Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I might be able to weld one on. Don't really want to ruin a brand new CCF frame. Would be good for my G21 for production though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Flex is getting at is that a CCF frame is not legal for Production. Not even close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolduckboy Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 i meant L10 with no magwell would be a good shooting 9mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshF Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 i meant L10 with no magwell would be a good shooting 9mm. Would this would be Limited legal?? "Any complete handgun or components produced by a factory and available to the general public for one year and 500 produced. Prototypes are specifically not allowed." Anyone know for sure??
