I’ve searched old threads, & while there are plenty discussing slide swap compatibility, my question goes a little deeper. And my questions only concern Gen3 (& Gen2) 9mm handguns.
Which internal parts of the slide are interchangeable between models 17, 19, & 26?
And which internal parts of the lower are interchangeable between models 17, 19, & 26?
I’m not a Glock armorer but the guns are so elegantly and simply designed that they are just a few steps above LEGO’s. I ordered parts for a 17 slide, and installed them on a 19 slide — no problem. I know, too, that a19 slide will operate on a 26 frame/lower so the interface dimensions are the same there. I know the locking blocks are slightly different shapes and locations(G17 at least). Do the rest interchange?
