Glock 19 4th gen needs a new frame.

[Constantine]

Not the Glocks fault...Mine. So I'm in the market for a new frame. Found a gen 4 frame on gun broker. It's over in 2 hours. So help!!!!

The rest are gen 3's.

My questions..what are the negative aspects of having different serial numbers from barrel/frame/slide? Any prolonged process in case of anything? I mean..when I sent my Glock 22 up for a refinish, they changed my barrel free of charge. And that's different.

Also, I want a gen 4 cause well...the gun is a gen 4 and I took a liking to it.

If it gets sold, would I be okay with a gen 3 on a gen 4 slide?

No. A Gen3 slide is not compatible with a Gen4 frame.

It seems like there's a back story here.... Stipple it too deep?

Also, I read here - so take it for what it's worth - that Glock will replace frames for a reasonable price. The post was awhile ago, and I'm not sure that the poster ever backed it up, but it might be worth a call to Glock CS just in case.

Gen 4 slide with gen 3 frame?

Nope. Doesn't work that way either.

dayman, I called Glock..they said they don't sell or give out frames.

I didn't mess it up. I'll post a pic from my phone in a second. I just had completely back to stock for CCW but the stippling isn't factory. I should have bought a frame and did the stippling to that one instead and keep that matching serial number with this on for CCW. I did backwards.

Should I just keep the stippled frame for CCW?


P. Daddy! lol thanks brother. Had a feeling...thanks for the reply. Following the YouTube channel btw.

There it is


Just don't like having a modified CCW with anything other than night sights.

For carry I'd just keep it the way it is. I generally prefer grip tape, but I like carrying a gun with some purchase.
If it bothers you, you could change it, but I'd think it would be just as reliable as it was before - it's not like you changed the trigger or any of the working parts. Nor did you do anything to make it appear scarier, or anything that's likely to make a DA decide you're overly bloodthirsty should you ever have to use it.
If it's too "sticky" you can always lightly sand it, but yeah, I'd just go with it.

[Constantine]

Yeah..that puppy has over 1k through it. Carried often. Internally, all stock.

The DA lol that's what I was aiming at trying to keep it stock. They're spin anything that's nothing into something. Drives me crazy.

I guess I'll just leave it like that.

Yes, btw. It's not abrasive at all. It's actually rather smooth. 600grit sandpaper afterwards does wonders. I even shaved down the sides before I did right in front of the take down lever.
