Yesterday, at the Shot Show’s Industry Day at the Range, Polymer80 revealed their new GLOCK 26 80 percent lower frame. It joins their Just for fun (and profit), they also debuted a new trigger, slides, threaded barrel and fully serialized NOT GLOCK pistols . . .
Polymer80 now offers frames for the le bébé GLOCK 26, 19, and 17.
Why make the switch? The eternal government confiscation issue (who doesn’t want a Blank Serialization Plate?) and “Next Generation Ergonomics and Features.”
I will say: the GLOCK 26 frame feels slightly better in the hand than Gaston’s gat. But then a brick by any other name is still a brick.
Polymer80’s GLOCK trigger is the same — as must-have go-pedals by Lone Wolf, APEX and other aftermarket trigger makers. Polymer80’s is flat faced, offering a smooth break and a short reset.
GLOCK 17 frame review COMING SOON!
Are you in the NW? Love the pics.
My theory it’s technically a pistol because it comes with a note saying you super double pinky promise not to shoulder it…..yes, I know it’s dumb but it’s about as educated of a guess as everyone else’s.
But in all seriousness, could it be a smoothbore with some sort of special muzzle device that puts spin on the bullet? Maybe a snap-on rifled section or a muzzle break with ports that put spin on the bullet?
Or theory#3; it’s just a smoothbore range toy.
