Polymer80, Spectre Frame

[Dago Red]

I believe they'll release a second version of the full size. Let's all cross our fingers.

Both show as available and will ship 4/10 (Monday).

Nice, I had looked yesterday, good that you caught it in stock, I grabbed a couple last time they were that price and they shipped pretty quick too

That would be great if they remade the g17 frame. We'll let you guys know if we catch wind of it in our dealer documents.

I don't have a Gen1 Glock 17 version. Is there enough space on the inside? I'd assume they'd have to mill out a chunk of space to hold the metal rail piece in. Since the Polymer80 is all about "here's a jig - you do the milling" they'd have to design a jig and drop-in part compatible with the Gen1. I can't imagine that'd be much cheaper than just making and selling a Gen2.

You would have to machine .058" off each side and 1.450" in depth.
I personally don't think it is doable.
Yes I compared the two frames.

After looking at the "RRM" and the frame, I agree; I don't think it's doable either.
But it still may be doable if someone was to design their own "rear rail module" and attach it differently, IMO.
I was considering getting one of the frames on sale now for $69 or whatever and trying this, but if Polymer80 has a new version in the works, I will just wait to see what they come up with.

New one is out. Old one is junk.3,000 rounds killed mine.

I've recently completed one of the new "compact" (PF940C) frames with the stainless steel "rear rail module", is that the one you're referring to? (BTW I like it much better than the PF940).

But being that I have $550 worth of G17 parts and a $275 Advantage Arms G17 .22 conversion kit for the PF940, I would like to migrate these over to a full size frame with metal rails...so I hope Polymer80 will follow through and make one.

[Kayo Kelly]

Thats the one. Keep me posted on how it is.
I have all the Glock parts. I may just sell them.

I'm 90% sure they're updating the full size frame. Every single shop that carries them is phasing them out faster than ever.

[Nelson_2016]

I can state my present opinion as follows: The PF940C is everything that the PF940 should've been but wasn't.

So far, I'm quite impressed with it (but I do need to shoot it some more before I'll feel completely comfortable with it).

I'm considering getting another one just to stash away, as I'm a little worried that if a crime is ever committed with one of these, our communist masters will use it as a pretext to try to shut down the "80%" industry.

Edit: I'll happily forgive Polymer80's earlier PF940 related gaffes if they make a new version which addresses the issues.

It will only get shut down in California. Go take a vacation in Arizona and build yourself an 80%er.

Just don't bring it back. (all those pesky laws include the word "importing" too.)

I'm betting they're pretty sure they're in the process of already doing so, at least for people that actually obey the law. I don't think they'll be happy until they've converted all the law abiding citizens into criminals.
As far as keeping one stashed, the "We will not comply" crowd are a little too out in the open for my tastes. I'd pay in cash for one at a gun show or something if that were my intention.

Someone installed a PF940C RRM into a PF940.
