I was super surprised to see how easy it was to build!! And putting it together was a huge learning experience! All I’ve ever done are ARs so I was nervous but honestly it’s just as easy if not easier. I feel confident that I could trouble shoot a problem if I ever ran into one now that I know how it all goes together
I agree with Holland. I've built several AR's from the ground up but had never tackled a semi auto pistol and I've never own a Glock. It was a very intuitive assembly and incredibly simplistic. Once all the components we're together it functioned flawlessly. I think the key is taking your time with the 80% frame. I worked mine down with the end mill proud and worked down with a file, then 200 grit then finished with 1000. Can't even tell it wasn't injected as it is now. Beyond that I sanded and polished the slide rails which provided glass like action. Very educational and fun process.

I myself have done several AR’s and would like to learn the functionality of a pistol so figure no better way then to dig in. I purchased a dremil and some small files. Is there anything else that I will need to help smooth out the process?Quote:

I also went as far as working my way up to 2000 grit sandpaper with a little oil and smoothed the areas the slide comes in contact with in the frame. Patience is key. They’re stupid easy to mil out but after you’ve gone at it with the Dremel, sanding and filing can take a little time to get it perfect so you don’t have any issues when firing. Lots of videos on YouTube if you get stuck!
I used a drill press to run the end mill myself. Worked well. Patience is definitely key

This is the same for me. I did put a pin in out of order and had the slide lock spring in the wrong location but after that fix, the thing runs awesome. Very happy I did it.Quote:

Nice! So far mine has preformed amazingly also. Pretty cool thing!

If you are from Washington State you will need to write your congressperson as the Senate and House have bills making them illegal to build in the future and you will be a Felon. Oppose please:

Oops I did it again.. couldn’t resist 50% off at midway. And they went FAST!! In an hour or two at least.
Question for y’all.. would dying this damage the polymer frame? Like putting it in a hot pot of water and dye? I’ve done a couple Pmags but I don’t wanna fuck this up
