This is why METAL frame Glock Pistols and other Handguns can be a bad idea. Especially a Custom Glock that has a metal frame.👇 Gear Sheet: ToolboxSpecs.com//pages/access?setup=specs-272

🛑 SAFETY & IMITATION WARNING (EDSA):
This video is for educational and documentary purposes, demonstrating technical specs and safety features in my Office which is a controlled environment and Regulated outdoor Range with a Safety Officer present in compliance with all legal and safety standards. DO NOT attempt to recreate, imitate, or replicate any activities performed in this video.
Stop buying metal frame Glock until you watch this. I tested five popular models to see if the performance claims hold up.
There is a growing trend of manufacturers releasing metal frame versions of existing polymer frame platforms. Companies promise reduced less muzzle rise, and improved accuracy as the primary benefits for these upgrades. However, after two and a half years of rigorous testing, the results are much more complicated than the marketing suggests.
This video breaks down my experience with these conversions. I cover the specific models I tested, the mechanical problems I encountered, and identify the single gun that actually delivered on the manufacturer's promises. If you are considering switching from a reliable polymer frame to a metal counterpart, this breakdown will save you time and money.
Subscribe for weekly honest gear breakdowns, and let me know in the comments if you prefer the feel of metal vs polymer frames for your daily carry.
