Did you go nuts with a soldering iron!  Looks good, how's it grip in the mitt?

I'll break it down-
Used G17 350.00
Framework 150.00
Glove reliefs, scalloped mag catch, magazine well reliefs, stippling
Slide machining and re-coating $100
Suppressor sites trijicon $150
Trijicon RMR reflex site $475

Been working in stages. Next is a threaded barrel and trigger job

Then when I move in to Camelot a suppressor!

Who did the undercuts for the hand and support hand and the stippling?

I had a local guy who runs a gun shop. He does pretty good work for sure and he's reasonable. you could prolly search for him on facebook. Freestyle Firearms Finishes, I think? He also cerakoted my slide after machining

I think that is scarier than a 12 gauge!!

I guess that not for CC.

Next is a threaded barrel

I think the new Gen4's have the option for a threaded barrel, so are you going to use stock barrel or you going aftermarket match type threaded barrel?

Inquiring minds are inquiring about the HC concept Glock.

Not sure on the barrel or can yet. Prolly a lone wolf for the barrel I imagine. I'm about to move in to a different state so I'm not in a position to begin paperwork on a can just yet so I'm not too worried about it.

Actually put a bucket of rounds through her today though. I'm really digging the RMR! I was nervous about it at first, but I'm pretty sold on it! It was raining buckets today, so if I was going to break smtg it would have been today.
