Anyone know how to go about upgrading a Glock Gen 2 frame to a Gen 3 frame? Costs? Will they make a frame with the same serial number as the existing one or would I get a completely new serial number? Thanks |

Glock won't replace a frame with another frame with the same number, even when they had the frame recall, they put a prefix in front of the existing serial number. I had a frame damaged beyond repair and sent the gun back to glock, they put a single Alpha and five numerics following it serial frame. If you're wanting a rail, you can buy a frame from one of the major parts houses and have your parts moved over. I'd sell the second gen and buy a good used 3rd, if you were wanting free advice

Most of our weapons were made then too. We have a few new ones but most of them are made around 1992-1995. I've replaced all the recoil springs and the mag springs but I'm not really happy with the weapons that we have. I really want officers to have the option to carry lights on their weapons. |

I'd call the Glock LE Dealer in MO and get a quote for trade in, My agency trades glocks in and it costs about 100 a unit, before addins like night sights. where they make their money is on holsters Of course, I'm holding onto my issued second gen 22, it's only eighteen years old an has ~~25K rounds through it. It's barely broken in.
