I find the Legolas of the 320 fascinating. I didn't realize until this week you can get an 80% FCU and a jig for around $250. LOL. P80 makes frames as well. And they are probably finished as they don't need to be 80%. (While I love building their stuff, I dislike their grip angle.)
I sourced everything between 3 places for this assembly: Sig, Midwest and some other place I can't remember. I made a spreadsheet of where I got what. I have a couple of parts on hand (trigger bar, takedown lever and trigger).Yeah, the biggest problem with 80% P320 FCUs is finding the lower parts kit in stock.
How much is a total build costing you so far?I sourced everything between 3 places for this assembly: Sig, Midwest and some other place I can't remember. I made a spreadsheet of where I got what. I have a couple of parts on hand (trigger bar, takedown lever and trigger).
Yep. Building is not cheap honestly. The M17 checks in just under a grand - because of DPP - this one will be just under $600How much is a total build costing you so far?
About equivalent to just buying one?
Yeah. You can do it! But you have to find the deals. The guy I bought this upper and grip mod off of has another set for sale for $250 - full side upper and grip mod on Armslist. You can source the lower parts for under $220 with shipping (lots of places sold out of stuff will post when I get out of the woods).I wasn’t expecting to do it cheaper. I know it’s usually not the case.
Sent PMM an email to find out when they won't be sold out ..
Jarod got back to me on this. Said they are just waiting on barrels, and that there will be plenty to go around this time.....

Meanwhile, I'm still waiting on some other parts for the FCU. Numrich said they are starting to ship again, so hopefully that order ships soon.
I found that you can go through a couple different places.Had a left over X5 frame so figured I'd join in on the lego building. Got the FCU frame today. Got some of the parts on order, the others were out of stock.

Start with Sig,
Move to Small Gun Parts,
Hit Midwest Gun Supply,
Finish off with Numrich.
It is pretty wild to shoot, like a loud 22/45. I am way too invested in 9mm Glocks to switch over, but someday I would like to start piecing one of these space blasters together. One cool side effect of them is when you shoot them, it looks like a choo-choo train's smoke stack.
Circling back, it looks like I never made my order through Numrich LOL - as in, I thought I did, but I didn't. They just opened back up, and maybe I did make my order, and they just haven't processed it yet, and are (according to their website) 8 weeks behind LOLThanks for those. Between those three and smallgunparts, I believe I have everything needed to complete the FCU.
Damn you lmao.
Does that just fit flush on the end of the side and frame or do you need additional smithing?
