Which Polymer80 frame fits the slide you own?

Every frame here is cut for Gen 3 Glock slides. Match the slide first, then the kit. Gen 4 and Gen 5 slides need a conversion kit.

The build path

Three boxes, one finished frame

Frame

Pick the frame for your slide

Use the finder above. Every kit ships with its own jig, so the frame decision is the only one that can go wrong.

Frame finder →
Finish

Drill the pins, remove the tabs

The jig guides the pin holes; the rail tabs come off with the included end mill in a hand drill, or a file. Pistol frames take an evening. AR lowers go easier on a drill press.

Build guides →
Parts

Add rails, parts kit and slide

Locking block and rear rail modules are in the kit. Lower parts kits, pin sets, slides and barrels are on the shop page, sorted by frame.

Read the notes, then buy the part

Polymer80 Guide started as build notes and kept the habit: the frames, lowers and pistols in the reviewed categories come with what we found finishing or shooting them. The slider up top covers the frame families, the fitment table names the slide each one takes, and the guides explain the parts people get wrong.

Straight answers

What builders ask before ordering

Do firearms ship to my house?
No. Handguns, rifles and shotguns ship to a licensed FFL dealer you choose, where you complete the background check and any state waiting period. Unfinished frames, lowers, parts and accessories ship to your door, except to states that restrict them.
What tools do I need beyond the kit?
A drill or drill press, a vise, a file, safety glasses and cutting oil. The jig, drill bits and end mill are in every frame kit.
How long does shipping take?
Orders leave a US warehouse within one to two business days by tracked carrier. Frames and receivers go only to states where they are legal; parts and jigs ship everywhere in the US.
Can I return a frame I have started?
No. Unused, unopened kits can be returned within 30 days. A frame or receiver that has been drilled or cut cannot be returned.
Is the PF9SS the same as the PF940SC?
No. The PF9SS is a single-stack frame for Glock 43 slides and 6-round magazines. The PF940SC is a double-stack subcompact for Glock 26 and 27 slides.
