SLIDE TO FRAME FIT DESIGN

We do some of the work --- Start with a Slide-to-Frame Fit where we fit the slide to the frame and you do the barrel fitting yourself. Let us add our Lightning slide cuts, sight cuts, and even a Zigracker and you won’t need to worry about any machining operations.  Choose from a slide-to-frame fit designed for the build of an Open Division style pistol or one designed for the build of a Limited Division style gun.

Open Slide-to-Frame Fit Specifications

Price:

​

Caliber:

  • 9x19 or 38 Super/Super Comp

 

Frame:

  • Brazos Modular Double Stack (MDS) standard/wide (short dust cover) frame 

  • Wilson/Nowlin or Clark/Para ramp

  • Drilled and tapped for scopemount

  • The frame has been optimized to work with both the polymer STI grip and the Cheely steel grip. Either of these grips can be installed with little or no fitting. There is a small amount of extra material in the grip safety area for blending

​

Slide:

  • Brazos classic (scalloped profile) slide – Choose either a bald slide (no cuts, serrations nor logos) or a Brazos Lightning slide

  • Brazos Lightning slide has been radically lightened for speed -- it has been flat topped and includes our trademark Brazos Custom lightning holes in the front with bullet cocking serrations in the back.  Includes ZigRacker with corresponding dovetail cut

  • Slide is fitted to the frame during the frame manufacturing process in order to ensure a precise and long-lasting fit.  This also produces bearing surfaces that are parallel/square to the frame


Additional Components:

  • “Matched” hammer and sear pin are provided with each frame. Pins are sorted by size in 0.0002 inch increments, then individually matched to each frame for a tight, “no-play” fit. Particular attention has been paid to hole location and size. This makes for an easier trigger job because the hammer and sear engagement surfaces are square
