The frame (now frames...)
I didn't have a frame for this build. My initial intention was to use the RMR slide on the SSV (Frankengun) frame. However, I added another slide (when I was looking fora barrel) and ended with 1 frame and 3 slides....
I decided to get another frame...
To finance the purchase, I sold my gorgeous model 10 (here in the forum for $400). Luckily, on the same week, I stoped by a gun store close to home and found a M5906 for the same price...
Unfortunately, it has a narrow hood barrel, is I can't use it on my M915 slides. But, it is a beautiful square trigger model...
I suspect this was a police trade-in, but there are no markings, so I'm not sure...
Also, it was in poor condition, dings and scratches everywhere...
(comparing the new frame with my SSV Frankengun frame)
The front sight was heavily damaged. It was a meprolight night sight that was dented and cut, to get the tritium tube removed.
So, it wasn't the greatest find...but it was mine
more to come...
