Polymer80, a company known for their polymer 80\u00a0percent\u00a0AR-15 lower receivers, introduced a new product at SHOT Show this year that will shake\u00a0things up in the 80 percent world. Named the Specter, this 80\u00a0percent\u00a0frame embraces the ghost gun idea and brings it to the service pistol market with a full-size Glock-compatible 80 percent receiver.<\/p>\n

Like their AR parts the\u00a0Specter frame is made of polymer and it requires a bit of milling to accept a slide and fire control group, but it’s\u00a0easy to complete\u00a0using the included jig and drill bits. After the frame is\u00a0drilled and milled you can\u00a0install a proprietary locking block with extended rails and assemble the gun. Once outfitted with all the necessary parts the frame will be ready to shoot.<\/p>\n

Designed to be compatible with Gen 3 Glock parts and Glock 17 slides, with the right slide assemblies, barrels and magazines. The Specter can\u00a0be chambered for 9mm Luger, .357 SIG and .40 S&W.<\/p>\n

Polymer80 is taking pre-orders for\u00a0Specter frames now and expects to ship starting March 1. The pre-order price is $140 and will be raised to $180 once they are in full production,\u00a0so if you are interested in one, reserve it now while the price is right.<\/p>\n

Polymer80 is also offering a new all-inclusive builder package,the Buy Build Shoot Rifle kit. It retails\u00a0for\u00a0$600\u00a0and even at that price it’s\u00a0a serious bargain with\u00a0everything you need to build a\u00a0rifle\u00a0save for a drill press. It is available now and comes in different color and cartridge configurations but the base model is black and will build a 5.56 NATO\/.223 Remington carbine.<\/p>\n
