    You want it with an optic cut, or no optic cut?

    We could isolate Russia totally from the world and maybe they could apply for membership after 2000 years.

    Optic cut, but open to screaming deals.

    Been pleased and impressed with my RMR-cut g19 slide from Brownells. Got it on sale for $165 and have zero complaints.

    FWIW, the Poly80 slides have been getting good reviews elsewhere.

    I will do a detailed write up after I shoot it (still waiting on my Brownells RMR slide that gets here Monday, but since it was a rainy day, I ratfucked my trusty old Gen3 19 and built this pig), but I do have some advice:

    - most folks say to use 1000 grit sandpaper, but I preferred my regular files (will find a link if you’re really curious, they’re cheap) and I did a LOT of work with this sub $7 set of jewelry files from Amazon

    - don’t start this build without a set of snips like these $9 ones. If you peruse YouTube videos of these Polymer 80 builds, you’ll see guys using a stone or sandpaper Dremel bit to take off the entire 4 upper rail extrusions one must remove in order to make this frame usable. That’s a pain in the ass due to how long it takes, how easy it is to Dremel-fuck something, how uneven you’ll be compared to a nice clean cut from these snips, and of course, the melted plastic from these Dremel bits. GET. THE. SNIPS.

    To clarify, I think this thing is fucking awesome, I HATE the feel of my Gen3 frame now. I think the build process is easy as well.

    Also, @Mack this fits with no issues into that really nice dark red/maroon G19 holster you sent me.

    I started reading this thread just as an idle curiosity but now wheels are turning and I'm trying to figure out why I need this. The frame looks awesome.

    ETA: where are you guys getting the frames from? Directly from Polymer 80?
