Re: New carry gun(I built)
P80 should have molded in the words "TRUE Perfection" into those lowers from what I've read.
Re: New carry gun(I built)
LOL! Well, I can say they are really nice. As long as the users machining skills are up to snuff, the lower be absolutely be flawless!
All the parts fit & function perfectly in my P80 frame. The barrel/slide fit is perfect. Lockup is concise. For all intents & purpose, it feels like a Glock 26! And it fits in Glock holsters easily. I don’t know you you can label anything “true perfect”, but I can certainly say it’s “perfect” for me!

David,
Awesome build. I have a gen4 26, great pistol, great size. Having one you built yourself, even better!
Enjoy. What sights are on it? How does she shoot?

Thank you much my friend! :D Just has the stock sights. I’m not too much about sights. I’ve been shooting a long time, and was an instructor as well. I’m not the best by any stretch...(especially since losing jay left eye, and a paralyzed left arm/hand), but I can stick rounds pretty much where I want within 15yds distance. (90% of my training & instruction was actually between 7-10yds!, and ALL of it was using CENTER MASS!) So stock sights work just fine. I do like the Ameriglo Hackathorn, and May pick them up at some point. But these will be fine for now.
I actually have not been to the range as of yet. I’m disabled & I don’t drive. And my 20yo son has been busy these last few weeks since I finished building it. I rarely even go out, save for Church on Sunday. I’ll get to the range here probably after the New Year.

I certainly would not want to be the test case for carrying that in Philly. No ser.no. Not in PSP ROS database. No proof of ownership. And whatever else a cop can think of.
I'd carry a copy of this. I do as I often carry a pistol I ought under my C&R , which some PSP says they don't recognize as legal.

Well I understand your concern. And as I stated in my previous post, it WAS like that not so long ago. But in this age where NO ONE can escape a video camera for their actions, Philadelphia police can no longer act as THEIR word is LAW! Especially those laws which are already Federal and items the Supreme Court has ruled on.
I carry this EXACT weapon EVERY time I go into Philadelphia! I live just outside, in Delco. In fact, I would invite Phily PD to try to rough me up, take my weapon & arrest me....based on me being engaged in LEGAL ACTIVITY with a LEGAL FIREARM!! The city would end up paying me several MILLION dollars! I’d be on board for that!
Again abner, I appreciate your your concern...but it’s misplaced. I recommend you re-familiarize yourself with both PA & FEDERAL firearms laws... And read about the latest CCW case the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled on.
A couple years back, Philadelphia Pd had subsequent training on civilians and Concealed Carry. They know better now.

A registry of handguns which is illegal in PA. They can use whatever weasel words they want but the only reason they keep this list is when they decide to confiscate firearms from citizens they will have a pretty comprehensive list on where to start. They don't need to know who owns a gun for any other reason. The explanation above is pure crap.

Well , I've had a PA-LTCF as well as held an FFL for well over 30yrs , and have had more than my share of go arounds with PSP and local LEO's who think they can do whatever they want. I keep a copy of the PA Uniform Firearms Act as well as the Federal guide I get with my FFL renewals in my vehicle and have used them.

Didn't say it was gospel , just that it MIGHT help with an overzealous LEO who doesn't know the laws as well as we do. And I know several people who had legally owned firearms confiscated because they did not show up in the ROS and they had to prove ownership.
I also had to provide former customers with copies of receipts as well as copies of the old 5pc Application and Record of Sale slips from when I was a dealer.
As for no ser.no. , I once had an old (pre-'68) single shot shotgun that I cut down within legal limits confiscated because it had no serial number and the cop as well as the ADA (who's a judge now!) was convinced it was an illegal ''sawed-off shotgun''. Yes , I had to get a lawyer and BATF involved with that one.
