Next level of PMF, go gen 5.
Locking block available at Match Point USA at the time of this posting https://www.matchpointusa.com/product/glock-locking-block-compact/ Here are the instructions for building the frame https://hydra.lonewolfdist.com/ItemMedia/10000/10000_255153.pdf The Freedom Wolf only works with a Gen 4 trigger housing The frame assembles just like an OEM Gen 4 frame. You will use a Gen 4 trigger housing, trigger w/bar, slide stop lever, and slide lock lever. You have a choice to use either a Gen 4 flat slide lock spring or a round Gen 5 slide lock spring. You will have to stick with a Gen 3/4 slide lock, the Gen 5 is too wide to fit into the frame. You can also use a Glock OEM polymer trigger housing pin since there is no metal that contacts the pin. A standard Gen 3/4 trigger pin and locking block pin is also used.The frame comes with a Gen 3 slide adapter in place at the front of the frame. Leave it there if you plan on using a Gen 3 slide. full guide https://www.marinegunbuilder.com/post/freedom-wolf-80-frame
Works with gen 4 and gen 5 OEM slides
Need gen 4 parts and to source out early gen 4 locking block or if you trim the tabs can use new gen 5 block. watch guide p80 Ralph https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKFdvw83LX8
Perfect for Lefties
Easy to construct. The Jig isn't as barney proof as the P80s so it takes having to be 10% smarter than the equipment you're working with. If you acquire LWD LPK it comes with appropriate locking block. Con being the aesthetics with plastic puzzle plugs on top of slide rails. You'll have to do some sanding and polishing to get a smooth finish but grip is great and comes with Magwell. My favorite 80%
great glock frame that functions Perfect
This is the MOST true to design of all the 80 percent glock 19 clones. works flawlessly with a glock 19 slide assembly. the polymer composite is stiffer and more robust than the polymer 80. One note is the mag well has a lot tighter tolerance. I like the fact you do not need to level sand the rails . they are finished very well. the adhesive is great just follow the directions. Get the Completion Kit directly from LONE WOLF it has the locking block included plus has the best parts to make your Glock clone function like a champ. I built this for a 9mm Glock 19
