26L is a 26 grip but a 19 slide.

That looks really nice.  I was just thinking about getting a Suarez RMR slide too.  The SI slide specs look top notch.

I've been debating with myself about getting one of these for months now.
Decision made, gonna pull the trigger on a black one with OEM internals this week.
I can swap out a gray 80P Builder slide I have on a Poly80 Compact frame for now (OEM internals, Holosun 507C ACSS and suppressor height iron sights on it) for the time being.  
Long term plan is to get a Brownell's Iron Sight Gen 3 slide, KKM barrel, GlockStore tungsten guide rod / spring, and OEM components for the rest of the slide internals, and have it milled locally for a Holosun 507K GR RDS, (my favorite RDS so far).
I'll post pics when I have it.

I found a deal from one of the usual dropshippers on the Gideon Omega Green circle dot SRO size optic ($143 shipped) to plop on top of my gray dagger slide.  

I thought about getting one of the gray 507C but then I would have to get one of the gray TLR 1HL and I'm not sure when GT Distributors will get more of those locally (I would really have to see it first).  

Dvor has the 507c on sale again for 297 shipped for the green and their sister company optics planet has it for about $330 shipped, but with a $75 gift card.  The coupon I have with OP ends tomorrow, so I've got a little time to think about that but I think I really need the ridiculously oversized window of the Gideon Omega.

Thanks I've had it for quite awhile, it was a blem, only $200. The most expensive thing on the gun is the KKM barrel, $295 with comp and thread protector, absurd.

Picked up my two frames this afternoon. Really liking these so far. Will have them out on Friday for some range time. Also trying out that new Steiner.

My only gripe is I don't like the extended mag release. So I ordered two factory gen 4 releases to swap them out. Easy fix, but I've never liked extended controls on Glocks. Oh and I need to swap the sight on the top one to some standard height plain Ameriglos. The suppressor height sights are too tall for the MPS. That sucker sits very low in the Acro cut. I really like that.

I got the OE Glock internals. Both of those are all stock 19 parts other than the frame itself and slide milling by Wager.

Did a quick function check of them just now. Ran fine with factory Glock mags and Pmags. Locked back on the last round as they should. Only shot two mags through each but should give them a more thorough test on Friday.

The texture on the frame is very nice compared to a stock gen 3. Really stays planted in your hand while firing.

I picked up my black frame from my LGS this afternoon.  Threw on a completed slide from a Poly80 and an old Olight and here it is.  
Not impressed with the trigger but I knew going in that with Glock OEM internals I'd probably not be happy.  I think it's time to think seriously about a Johnny Glock comat trigger.

I've got a Timney Alpha trigger with a GlockStore Black 'Yikes' Double Diamond 3.0 connector in a G26.3 I built from a stripped frame that has a scary good trigger.  If I hadn't had a couple decades behind a 1911 with a really good trigger I wouldn't even have considered carrying it.

They’re videos/slide shows. I took close up pics of the frame where I smoothed things out.

These are my favorite aftermarket frames.

I built mine just like the OP. I've built 3 Remsport slides with RMR cuts, and I love them. The texturing on my frame under the beavertail was very rough, especially where the weld is down the middle. I smoothed the texturing down with a dremel sanding drum. That is my only criticism of the frame, I don't have any use for the texturing in that location.

Take two.  I think I like this better than the RDS slide.  FDE P80 brand slide with OEM internals and TruGlo FO sights from my very first P80 build years ago.  This fits all my G19.5 holsters.

It can be real fun to play around, but after owning every Glock variation on the planet, I much prefer a stock Gen 5.

Looks great!  What are your thoughts on GG slide and JG trigger?
Link Posted: 4/28/2024 1:40:22 AM EDT
[#23]
GG slide seems solid.  I originally thought my P80 slide was a better fit on the frame but after racking it a few dozen times it seems to be settling in, if that makes sense.
JG trigger feels pretty much like my G19.5 trigger except that it has a crisper break (as JG say, 'glass rod' break).  Not the lightest break but a nice break, again, if that makes sense.  
It doesn't compare to the Timney Apex as far as being light, but I wanted a combat oriented trigger in this as I plan on it being my primary carry gun once I've proven it out with my carry ammo.

Was going to snag a used Gen3/4 19 to serve a life of truck gun duty, but might toss one of these together.

Has anyone tried one of Grit Grips magwell funnels on their frame? Logic would say it should fit, but their magwell page says it is intended for the Dagger frame and nothing about if it fits their frame, so before I order one, figured I better check. EDIT: Disregard, I forgot the Dagger has the cutouts on the lower frame at the magwell. Probably not a fit.

They are working on a magwell for the GG19 frame.  The Dagger version will not fit.  

I believe the next magwell being released is for the OEM Glock G43X frame.

Saw their Blems advertised on a FB group yesterday, have 2 frames on the way to try...

They supposedly ship with SCT internals.  Do I need to prepare for any surprises?  I've only ran OEM Glock before.

Thanks! It is one of the Zaffiri complete slides that was on sale at Palmetto State on Memorial weekend. It's on a complete GG frame (obviously). The only thing I swapped out of the frame was the trigger. I put an Overwatch TAC trigger in it and added an RMR. Everything is good, except the recoil spring that came with the upper is weak as hell. So, I have an OEM Glock RSA coming to replace it.

Until / unless I find a low profile EDC magwell similar to Tyrant CNC's, I think this is done.
ZEV slide, Faxon barrel, JohnnyGlocks Evo X Combat trigger, RMR, TLR7-X, SS RSA, OEM extended slide release.  It's become my EDC.
The ZEV RMR cut is deep enough that standard height sights give me a lower 1/3 cowitness.

This is just like the Radian Afterburner for me.  Totally disregarding a potential client base to concentrate on a particular set of customers.  I can see maybe a limited run to gauge sales potential, but I guess that's wishful thinking.  It would cost me just as much, maybe more to have someone stipple my frame to look like that

SCT has a Gen 3 17 pattern frame which accept Glock 17,22 & 31 slides.    PSA has the full size Dagger which accept 19 length slights like the Glock 45/47.   I like my Combat Armory frames and if they offered a Glock 17 pattern Gen 3 frame I’d buy one.

Radian and Grit Grips are both expanding their markets.  But of course they're going to go after the largest client base first, and like it or not that's the Gen 3 19.

G19 Gen3 is most popular.

G43X replacement will almost certainly be next.  

G45/G19X likely after that.  It's a no brainer when you look at what people spend money on.

It's also a great upgrade path for those who are already invested in the G19. You've already spend $1500-2000 on your Instagram ready taticool custom slide with Gucci comp and optic, just grab a compatible frame to toss it on.


The only momentum the G17 frame has is the people who would buy one to build out a G34.  But with the availability of the SCT17, Lone Wolf Full/Full and of course the TON of cheap Glocks thanks to the dumping of the G22 by many departments, you'd think there would be more of that, and there's really not.

I got my GG19 frame a few days ago. I have put only about 20 or so rounds through it but it was a definite upgrade from the OEM G19 frame I had on the build. This frame is how Glock should have done their frames. Gen 5 feel, beavertail, Gen4 type magazine release, double undercuts, great grip texture and thumb ledges all added up to a very smooth shooting pistol. I only shot it at seven yards, but I did rapid fire 10 rounds and all shots went into one ragged hole.
I liked the frame so much I ordered the Grit Grips GGS2 slide for it to upgrade from the AIM Surplus slide I had on the build. The slide has recoil lugs milled into the RMR cut and I wanted that on a pistol that I plan to have with me everyday and shoot a bunch.
I believe this will be my new favorite pistol if the slide plays well with the Roscoe barrel and GG19 frame. I don't anticipate problems but you never know.
