Polymer 80 handguns
I'm looking to purchase a polymer 80 kit online and was wondering if they're legal in PA. Are these legal to buy build and shoot in PA?

Re: Polymer 80 handguns
as previously stated Rockey Brass also JSD supply should be getting some stuff in but they are going to be a little behind on shipping , for the price you can't beat it though. I strongly recommend you review the marine gunbuilder videos, I don't use a dremel my self to do the pins but I also bought good stubby drill bits and have a phenomenal grasp of level with a hand drill, I also use american bits a size smaller and use a small round needle file to final fit so everything is nice and snug. My advice is go slow and use the tools you are comfortable with vs. what everyone else tells you because you are going to get 7 different ways to do the same thing. What might work for someone else may not work for you.
Side note make sure your channel is clean and even to the sides of the locking block and smooth at the bottom edge (there are videos on the page I listed below) that's the number one error aside from pin holes that screws up a lot of peoples function. It will hang up your slide and cause issues.
Videos and parts and tool links all here
https://www.marinegunbuilder.com/
I'm putting this first so you know where not to buy
Lancaster tactical supply DO NOT DO IT please for the love of god don't look up their reviews but when you come across them (and you will) stay far far away.
Urban Survival Arms ... you may or may not ever see anything from them ... ever
Here is a mixed bad F&F used to be great they got backlogged and made several customers angry by shooting off their mouth, that being said they had done some great deals for people over the years and I wouldn't discount them .... you will eventually get your stuff but I would wait till some of the crazy dies down.
https://fandffirearms.com/
Couple reliable sites to purchase from also let me break down the sizes ....
940V2 = 17/22 full size frame
940c = 19/23 Compact frame
940sc 26/27 sub compact frame
P45 = 20/21 Full size frame
https://jsdsupply.com/glock/?sort=pricedesc&page=2
5off gives you a 5% discount at JSD
https://www.rockeybrass.com/
when they are in stock you're gtg here at MDX make sure to read all the descriptions important
Free shipping code is FSMGB or MGBFS (one of those is right)
https://mdxarms.com/
I'll pop back in there are more but I got a kid that needs to get to the bus stop sooooooo....

Re: Polymer 80 handguns
Best price I’ve found has been rockeybrass.com for the kits. And one of the few I’ve found that still sells the kits with rail modules included since the atf changed their definitions. If you’ve never done one before, go slow, take your time, and be methodical. And use OEM Glock parts. These can be picky about aftermarket mix and match stuff. The worst part of the build was milling the guide rod channel block out. Use a very sharp knife; don’t bother with the dremel/rasp/sanding drum method. Needle files are your friend also.
Do it now while you still can. Good luck finding factory Glock parts kits for a reasonable price though. I had to purchase each item from the kits individually to build mine (LPK and slide parts kits were either non existent or $200+ per kit)
HK, where’d you find that mag well? And is that talon grip tape I see or a custom job?Last edited by HanzMcFeely; October 23rd, 2020 at 11:01 PM.

Re: Polymer 80 handguns
the magwell is cross armory I highly recommend all their stuff pin kits , mag release all of it, the grip I just did a quick cerakote job on. Factory parts can be had if anyone is on facebook join the polymer80 master builders page ( I generally post up deals when I can which is usually Sunday. I'll start posting in share deals as well.).
Here's the cross armory stuff for the magwell make sure it says P80 not Glock

The AG tried to pull some crap recently with 80% lowers but the overreach of power didn't stick thankfully

Re: Polymer 80 handguns
Just ordered my first last night. I ordered a Strike 80, which is a collaboration between Strike Ind. and Polymer 80. I plan on taking my time to acquire all of the other needed parts. Yesterday, all of a sudden I got a bunch of "back in stock" e-mails for Polymer 80's from various retailers. The 19 kits have been out for a while.
