SCT43 Frame For The Glock 43x/48 - Best Upgrade

[@hollow6178]

I think the act frame uses oem Glock parts

[@spnfirearms]

If that’s the case then it’s the best value out!!!! Haven’t stripped it yet but the slide stop doesn’t look oem nor does the locking block

[@spnfirearms]

I just checked. It’s not all Glock oem parts. It’s a mixture of oem and sct parts…

[@copper178]

@@spnfirearmsThe trigger assembly is a stock 43x trigger assembly. I only switched the trigger shoe on my Sct 43sc frame to a Shadow Systems Cr920 trigger shoe. It’s perfect after that.

[@spnfirearms]

@@copper178 great choices! Respect!

[@spnfirearms]

Even with some oem parts, it’s the best value out… respect guys

[@Aaron-ro4kv]

Absolutely 42x Max. If they gave me 10+1, a rail, and TFO sights, I'd pay $600 immediately. At $650 I'd think about it for 2.4 seconds, then get it.

[@jerroddooley374]

I’d probably buy two. I’ve developed arthritis in my hands and wrists so the .380 is a lot easier on me. I’ve spent the last year selling my guns and transitioning to nothing but .380 in the safe. I do have a 57 pistol and it shoots like a dream but way too big for edc. I recently bought the Glock 25 and paired it with an mck, it’s pretty sweet. Got me to wondering if I could drop my Glock 25 internals into the sct19 frame and it function? The 25 is just a 19 chambered in .380. I think it would work

[@Aaron-ro4kv]

@@jerroddooley374 I have mck too. I'm thinking about getting Flux Raider. Yeah, I'd buy 2 of those glocks as well. One to train massive round count, one to carry.

[@caseyjohnson2141]

I completely agree

[@ChrisfromGeorgia]

I agree about the 42. It is actually my primary edc. If they ever release a 42x, I’m buying! 👍🏻💯

[@cliffknoebel8528]

I bought 2 of the stripped sct 43 frames, I absolutely love the feel. Destroys glock and micro dagger out the gate. If you bought complete frame it has oem glock parts except the mag release that's their own

[@0leg0101]

PSA should make a 10 round flush mag for the G42!

[@justin5421]

My Glock 42 FINALLY runs flawlessly so now I LOVE IT! I was so bummed and upset when I had constant malfunctions out of the box. Even after sending it in and getting it back from Glock I still had issues. Apparently it needed a “break in” because it’s now been malfunction free over the last 300+ rounds. Now I just need to find the time to put on my handle it edge grips and then get some new metal night sights

[@GerryHicks-ki5uf]

…AND IT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!

[@GreatWhiteCat]

I agree very much about wanting a Glock 42 "max"...I have the Ruger LCP Max, but, you cant beat a Glock. I'd have to get one.

[@DanielJohnson-ot8wj]

I just bought the frame for a G19 and got the guts separately. I automatically get a Johnny Glock combat trigger for all my glocks so no need in buying the frame already kitted out. Get a Johnny Glock and extended controls and then you got one helluva a freedom launcher! The 43x Johnny Glock trigger is the best upgrade you can ever invest in. It’s the biggest change in any Glock platform. I have not tried out the 4311 yet. I plan to give that a try after the newness wears off and are in stock more consistently.

[@dylanammons1952]

Hey brother grab the micro dagger lower and do a comparison please! I’ve got the micro dag and have been debating on ordering one of these lowers to swap but need a comparison from someone I trust!

[@spnfirearms]

Sounds good man, I got you! This thing is the real deal… they were spot on with it! I got you. Respect

[@firstpersonfreedom6742]

I have a shadow cr920p and wasn't the biggest fan of the lower. I purchased the micro dagger and sct lower to see which I preferred. The sct is better. My only issue with it was the notch at the front of the trigger guard. It wouldn't fit in some of the holsters I already own.

[@SoloFan87]

I have a Anderson Kiger 9c as my CCW. Anderson made the Kiger with a SCT Frame. Even though it is a Glock 19 Gen 3 Clone I agree with everything you say on the SCT Frames. I do plan on possibly getting a PSA Dagger upper with the SCT frame either from Anderson or SCT themselves. All in all to me worth every penny.

[@GerryHicks-ki5uf]

I just purchase 2 awaiting arrival to my FFL. I ordered a G43x MOS on eBay from American Tactical. Came w/ box/lock. I have 2 . I have 2 G43 . Can’t wait to complete them as you quoted w/ OEM parts.

[@michaelw6645]

holster compatibility?

[@chefhenri]

The SCT frames are great. I believe that they install OEM glock parts. Check out the serial numbers on the crucifix

[@spnfirearms]

They aren’t all oem. It’s a mix of sct and Glock oem parts! But Still a great deal none the less!

[@GlennFricke]

I bought mine about 2 months ago and threw on a micro dagger slide, a Johnny Glock flat faced shoe, and a micro dagger mag, and its rendered my G26 to home defense duty. That hole at the back is for a Magwell that is forthcoming.

[@dbreezy7630]

Love my 43x mos even though I’m stock everything

[@PlanetRibooted]

I have two of these. They need some hand tuning. I’ve noticed that the rails are set about 1/2mm taller than an OEM Glock 43x frame. This was causing an issue with the connector not reliably resetting the trigger. Near 100% failure rate on one frame and about 1 in 20 on the second frame. Had to bend the connector ear upwards and the entire connector bar to the right hand side of the frame. Works 100% so far, but want to run another 200 rounds through each before I call it good.

[@deucedeuce1572]

The texturing looks like the texturing they put on 3d printed frame designs. Never thought it looks nice... but it works good. It's not easy to print stippling or to come up with any stippling that actually works, so lines and grooves are fairly common in 3d printed frame designs.

I bought mine at Brownells, I got the green one, building it now. I like the fact it doesn't have that rounded backstrap of the glock. Its my new glock, to bad glock can't make a simular type frame, they'd sell hundred of thousands of these. Glock factory frames really suck. But so much for Glock really listening to Americans wanting a 1911 style frame, the SCT frame makes for a better frame for me, sorry glock, move over for SCT & the Grit Grips frames. Your loss will be both be their gains, to many after market frames to work with, than stick with the ill fitting glock frames.
