Nomad9 "Glock 19" Frame

[Lon]

I’m gonna revive this necropost. @Tokarev are you still running the Nomad frame? Any updates?

I am still carrying mine daily. It is still running without any issues. I am looking to get another one.

Nomad is doing a G17 frame now. I need to look into getting one.

I’m thinking about a 17 Nomad frame and using my G4.19 slide with a PMM JTTC comp.

I believe the Gen 17 frame is specific to Gen 5.

Well, shit. Totally read that wrong when I was looking at Rainer’s website.

Maybe I’m not crazy. According to this compatibility chart, I think it’ll work.

Yes it should work. The big change from Gen1-4 into 5 was the standardization of the G19 locking block. So a Gen4 G19 slide assembly should work on the Nomad 17 frame. Down side is the frame will stick out a half an inch off the end of the slide. Saw that sucker off or stick on your PMM comp or whatever and you should be good to go.

So it won't work with the G19 stuff. Just G17 length.

I emailed Nomad. Here's what they say:

We get this question a lot, but the problem is that the Nomad 9F (G17) has the standard rail spacing between the front and rear rails. This means that with a G19 length slide and RSA you’ll run out of travel, due to the slide bottoming out on the front rails.

Well, shit. Thanks for the info.
