Glock gen 4 or 5 frames

[OARNGESI]

Does anyone know any places to buy a Glock gen4 or 5 frame cheap. Gen 3 are cake to find around 50-60 or 115 complete but the best I’m finding is complete frames in the newer gen running at 200 after shipping. Anyone know a cheaper place to source a gen 4 or 5 frame seriously thinking of parting a gun to get the frame for my build

I’m looking for a Gen5 G19 MOS frame (no front cutout). They’re out of stock where I’ve found them. As soon as I get one, I’ll probably have a Gen5 G19 frame (front cutout) for sale.

Given the prices for frames and slides, parting out is probably cheaper.

I can buy a lightly used G19 or 19X for cheaper than some places are selling a complete slide.

I should’ve started with: are you looking for 19 or 17 size?

I have a gen 4 zev slide for a 17 but I want to get a gen 5 19 frame and build a hybrid

Don't believe it will work since the locking lugs in the slide and locking block are different.
Gen5 goes back to Gen 2 for the lockup. So your basically in no man's land.

There are people who successfully did it on YouTube they just added a gen5 backing plate
