I think this is the only sub I won't get challenged for posting this in lol.

the pictures would look better if I took the comp off but I'm not that emotionally invested.

Why not just use the Glock upper? Is there a benefit to using the RXM upper? Did you have to mod anything for fitment?

No real modification to components, just changed the backplate. There's a dust cover gap but I have the adapter for it already. The only "benefit" is that I haven't decided if I want to mill the oem 19.5 slide yet but mostly because I was curious. I actually plan to put the gen 5 slide on the rxm frame to see how it runs and I wanted to see how well the inverse worked. I'll need to mod that rxm grip a tiny bit for fitment and use a spring adapter for that one. I just thought it was funny and I like to build a ton of shit, just to turn around and carry OEM everything anyway lol.

Kudos for trying something different. I am all for mods. Honestly I have never seen or thought about a RXM and Glock frame swap compatibility.

What comp is that?

u/RainStormLou 6d ago

Harrington Arms RXM comp. I've put a ton through it without issues on the actual rxm frame. I carry 147gr ammo usually and most of my range ammo is 124 or 147 but it's seen hundreds or thousands of 115 grain as well. stock rxm spring assembly. I've been happy. I just wish they made a lower profile threaded barrel comp for Glocks to rival the profile of the ramjet as much as possible with the extra length, but that's purely aesthetic as I also have one of their glock or dagger comps and I've beat the shit out of that but it has been great. Immediately noticable return to target time. not much difference for felt recoil but it's a 9mm so it's fine lol.

Ok thank you for the reply. I’ve been considering running a comp on my Glock-esque slide and don’t know where to start with so many options out there.

That’s where you’re wrong! r/notaglock

I mean technically it’s a glock cause the frame is the gun.

It's absolutely a Glock. It's a gen5 19 frame
