Let's call this an exercise in curiosity.
This website has a coupon (VETERANS) right now for well, everything it looks like. My curiosity is getting the best of me, and I think I would like to build a frankenglock from an 80% lower. But as usual, I have questions.
1. Is it worth my time?
2. Should I just kit out the whole lower with sweet parts, then buy a used slide?
3. Is it just better to shoot the works?
4. Would it be cheaper to just buy a Glock 19x and throw my Vortex Viper on it?
Anyhow, I know people on here have done it so, impart some knowledge (please?)
Edited to add: I bought a complete 3rd gen g-17 lower from a member. I'd rather support this community. Anyway I change the title to Ron's Frankenglock. This is going to be my little Christmas present to me
