Gen 5 17 with a Gen 3 17 dustcover welded onto it. Battlecock Tactical did all of the plastic work. KM3 Solutions did the cerakote. Slide is a Spinta Precision Allegiance Gen 3 17L. Barrel is an old LoneWolf 19XXL. KagWerks slide release, StandardCo FFT trigger on a GPT. I tried a Ghost Angel, this is the first gun I've had that didn't like the Angel, so I switched back to the connector that came with the GPT. Sights are Dawson's MOS.

So many fucking people have to make posts that are like a Scooby Doo mystery.

I was pretty certain it was a battle cock when I saw it. He does interesting work, but is always vague about costs. Just fucking say a price already.

If a guy posts a picture of a frame he did and I ask how much to do EXACTLY THAT? Don't bullshit me, asking for emails and shit. That makes me think he's just pulling number out of his ass. Figure out what it's worth and state it. People are more apt to deal with someone who's upfront.

His G26X and G26/P365 mag frames are also neat.

I don't care for all the extra stippling and sculpting he does. I understand something HAS to be done where we melds the frame pieces together, but going overboard never appeals to me.

Cost was around $1k, I was the first to have the extended dustcover done though, not sure he'd charge the same amount for the next customer. No one mentions their prices on social media platforms because it's the quickest way to get shut down for selling, even on here unless you're willing to shell out big bucks to be an advertiser.

He does have a fairly extensive price list on his site.

That's my creation, I did have him do work on them though.

He has ways of making the welded parts look OEM. I think he used a plastic mallet with sandpaper on the face to mimic the factory texture on the dustcover.

That's cool. I just think with as popular as the glock world is some heavy competition frames would sell. It seems like the steel and aluminum frames of the past were never popular so maybe I'm wrong.

I really wish we would see an aftermarket frame that offered a full length dustcover for the G34. Both as an awesome G34 setup, or for pairing with a 17 slide + integral comp.

Sounds like time for a 3D printer to go brrrr. I'm sure somebody has released a G34 file, although most of them that are extended to seem to be G17L or more.
