Product Spotlight: St Croix Frame for Glock 19

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ต.ค. 2022
- Brownells Gun Tech™ Caleb Savant is excited about the St. Croix Tactical frame for the Glock® 19 Gen3 platform. "Great, another Glock® frame," you may be thinking. But the SCT-19 is really well made, says Caleb. It feels good in the hand and is "extremely affordable." How affordable? Depending on how much of a cheapskate you are, the St Croix SCT-19 costs LESS than dinner out with your spouse / significant other. Yeah, THAT affordable!
The SCT-19 comes with a nice set of features. It is, of course, molded from tough, reinforced polymer with stainless steel slide rails and locking block (the locking block is removable). Exterior texturing is a big thing on aftermarket polymer pistol frames, and St Croix went for "ladder" serrations on the backstrap and frontstrap, with deep, aggressive (but not painfully so) texturing on the sides of the grip. There's an untextured area near the mag release, so you don't scrap skin off your thumb as you operate the mag button.
The SCT-19's triggerguard is neatly undercut for the main grip hand and ALSO for the support hand, so you can get a really firm hold on the pistol. A pronounced but not exaggerated beavertail lets you maintain a high hold on the gun, close to the bore axis, for excellent control without risk of the reciprocating slide slicing the web of your hand.
Aftermarket extended magwells will not fit the SCT-19, but St Croix makes their own magwell for it (sold separately). Up front, a full-length M1913 Picatinny accessory rail is ready for a light or laser sight. The St Croix Tactical SCT-19 frame for Gen3 Glock 19 is serial numbered and must be sent to an FFL dealer when purchased.

I was legitimately impressed by this frame, I'm definitely giving it a go on my next build. Who else is going to give it a try?
How can i build a hair like your? ?
I live in Wisconsin. I better give it a shot lol
I pick mine up the other day and I'm extremely happy with it as soon as I get a couple other parts I need I'll get it put together It feels really good in your hand
Will G45 gen5 parts and slide work on this?
@@kmonroe5785 No, it will not.
You guys have really upped your B-roll game
Has 4 slot picatinny rail and cost around $50 - very impressed.
Bought mine thus morning I'm ready to get thus build going
I enjoy building the p8o's, I have to get one of these asap. Thanks Caleb & Brownells
Enjoy building while you can...big brother will soon be craking down on these with the power of hammer and sickle.....
@@tntshuffle-9799 don't know how. It's serialized.
@@TNRonin they want to get rid of anything p80. Its all just part of the bigger plan...
Not considered a p80. It’s serialized
@@nynshawty5608 Right but, what I should've said is, they are trying to get rid of everything. As in, remove your rights altogether....
It’s very much like a strike80 frame, but a little better, and actually available. Ill order one.
I thought it was a strike 80 at first.
I would bet the Strike mag well will fit.
But now with ATF registration for later confiscation
@@jesuslovesme9138 it’s been confirmed to fit with minor fitting.
I've got one of these, so far I'm really happy with it. I've had it at the range a few of times and the grip is really great and it's a solid shooter. I have the Brownell's slide on it and it really enhances the tactical look. I'm curious to see how long it holds up being so cheap. It's a fun project, and I highly recommend it.
Just finished my SCT19 build,love it 👍🏽
What mag release do you use?
Can’t wait for mines to get here :)
I just received mine couple days ago and I am extremely happy with it I've not got it put together yet Still need to get a couple other pieces but I think it'll be just fine It fits my hand perfect It's got a good feel to it and it looks and feels to be made really solid
Holster compatibility? Thinking this might be a good host for a PSA Dagger slide if it fits regular holsters.
Funny. Signed up for your back in stock notification. Waited. Waited some more so went ahead and got it from the other site who carries em. Next day, boom. Back in stock at Brownells. Lol
Cheaper than Burger King? WOW! 🤩
A couple whooper Jrs. and water…
Cheaper than two mcdoubles and a medium fry?
That's actually a rehashed Strike Industries model Strike80, sold in 2019-2021
Besides being an actual frame made for shooters by shooters it's got a locking block and costs $40 or so . Definitely need this frame.
Interesting that the St Croix company that makes fishing rods is also based out of Wisconsin.
I could totally see them branching out and doing these Glock frames.
I'm sure there's a lot of similarity in the materials.
That was my first thought, and I wouldn't be surprised.
@@TylerSnyder305 I hope it's them.
They make good rods.
I got several of their rods , nice stuff
I just ordered one!
It’s a strike 80 frame with more stippling. Meaty hands will give you slide bite with this frame. It’s a nice frame and slide fit is good, just put more beaver tail on it.
Do you actually get slide bite from this frame or is this merely your opinion? My “meaty” hands are prone to slide bite on the PF940C and a few others. But I have no such issues with this SCR frame.
1. The rear serrations should be made vertical rather than horizontal. Other than that it looks perfect.
2. Do they make it also for Glock 17?
3. It's great it's serialized - we'll need it with an official serial number if we want to purchase it here in Europe.
4.The price is really good. They will sell tons of them if the quality matches the original.
i read somewhere that you can build it to shoot 40 and 357 sig with this frame
its the same as the strike industries frame or their old 80 frame. still good just pointing it out edit: its ann oem company. so they probs made it for SI too
wonder if it will accept gen 5 stuff with alil modification
I bought 2 thinking of buying more strike 80 mag well does fit
Looks a lot like the Strike 80 frame to me which is not a bad thing just an observation
☝️
Excactly what I thought!
Is the angle for the wrist the same as the glocks or more up right like a sig?
is the grip angle the same as a Glock ?
Looks identical to the Strike80 frame. Any relationship?
is this grip slimmer than oem? i have small hands and have trouble reaching the trigger with correct form
love my st croix fishing rods lol.
What about the rails? They look to be smaller on this frame than on a Glock or a P80 frame. Do the rails come out? They look as if they’re not removable.
Well, it was inexpensive until the 4th of July weekend... then it went up $15.00 ! Now it is cheaper elsewhere (like Primary Arms). Otherwise a great frame.
So where do you get it from?
i am having trouble getting the slide stop lever in place with a pyramid trigger ?
I’m waiting for FDE or ODG.
Will it fit the gen 5 G45?
What gen is it for? I have a gen5 19.
Dinner for two when I'm buying...$20, I'm not kidding!
Is it compatible with shadow systems?
Looks like the strike industries frame
Might it fit the Glock 23?
Skip to 1:39 if you want to avoid the "taking your girlfriend out to dinner" monologue.
Also, just to be useful - these are only for *Gen 1-3 G19s* according to the maker's website.
If it’s made in Wisconsin it’s probably cheesy. 🧀
No, it looks pretty good
When will SCT make a Glock frame for Gen 3 Glock 19 slides and Glock 17 magazines? 🤞
Does it fit g19 slide gen 4 ?
Great now I have something else to add to my cart lol
Holster availability?
Is there a little more slide bite protection than a poly80? The glock and poly80 chew my hand up!
Yes, the beavertail is a bit longer.
Offset 45 knowledge transfer
Where can I get a Glock 19 gen 5 p80 type frame without having to drill or grind anything, where I can just put my parts in and get to work????
God, Caleb really went for jugular on dudes out here lmao
Can it be shipped to your door or do you need ffl?
Would like to know myself
"...offset 45..." 😂
Does the frame come with the all the pieces ?
No, but Glock 19 parts will fit.
Pretty much looks like a poly 80. At least Poly 80 fixed the grip angle.
*Will a G45 parts and slide work with this?*
No this is for Gen 3. He said that in the video.
Does it assemble same as Glock
At @ $50 why wouldn't everyone have a few of these !!!!!
Do you need an FFL to buy it?
That frame has a serial number and will need to be shipped to an FFL, where you'll need to go through the normal firearm purchasing process for your state.
Yes, you do. It is a fully machined frame.
Based on my track record of ruining 80% frames, it seems this is a good item for me to try. The price is good as well.
Lol same
Gotta take your time.
I've blemmed 1 frame for my g17 p80 but still functional because I got too comfortable
Idk what to say. P80 frames are Easy AF! To do..
The original Glock barrel and slide have matching serial numbers. How does someone go about legally carrying the gun with a frame that has a different serial number?
Slides and barrels do not legally need to be serialized, just the frame. There is absolutely nothing unlawful about carrying a firearm that has a slide and/or barrel serial number not matching the frame.
@@CalebSavant Although the ATF and Democrat leaders want to serialize every part on a weapon.
@@CalebSavant Thanks for the clarification.✌🏽
Assemble For Thyself
@@CalebSavantprobably a better question, do we need to purchase this frame and get it registered since it’s really the frame for a Glock the owner is tied to? Is this considered a whole separate firearm?
Got one one month ago. Did a complete build and the first day after 25 shots the frame broke at the under rail for the light. Sent it back to brownells. I did notice that the frame felt light and thin compared to my friends stock Glock 19. Went ahead and ordered a g19 since I have all the internals and complete slide
Can anyone imagine what Mrs. Savant’s hair looks like? I’m picturing a hazard for ceiling fans but could be entirely off base … 😝
How much $$ will it take to finish out this frame?
The Brownells kit to complete it is currently $36.99.
yep serialized.. Makes it worthwhile if you could just walk in and purchase it.. But online shipping and the FFL fee.. No Brownells near me..
Is it compatible with a glock 19 lower parts kit?
Yes
I would love a G29 one. Ah wishful thinking for sure
Can I use a Glock 23 slide on it
Gen 3 ? Does that mean it's not compatible with Gen 5 ?
Looks like a strike 80 frame from strike industries.
Will it work for the gen 4 23?
He said glock 19 gen 3. Why do you ask dumb questions?
@@21scavage you really need a life douchebag.
Hey "C" is your wedding ring black titanium...
It's nitrided stainless steel with nitre blue bands, but the blue has worn off.
I want G17 size
thats the kiger frame, is it not?
I'm interested, but I can't tell if this will fit into glock holsters. It looks like the strike industries frame, so I would guess no.
I never would have imagined anyone would make an aftermarket frame that doesn't fit in the standard holster, it seems like a really dumb idea.
Unless you're just that kind of company and you also sell the holsters..
Still doesn't seem like a good idea though, because as much money as you might make selling holsters, you would sell a hell of a lot more frames if they fit the stock holsters.
@@deejayimm Almost zero aftermarket Glock frames will work with Glock standard holsters, the frames would have to match Glocks externals very closely to go into a Glock holster. IMO would kind of defeat the purpose to make an aftermarket frame just like Glocks. I wish holsters held onto the frame differently so they work with a variety of frames but most do not.
@@jpvaulter95 Yeah clearly I've never bought one or really given it much thought, I just assumed it would be dumb to sell a product that makes all the holsters no longer relevant.
@@deejayimm I definitely understand that, luckily I'm sure some holster companies will make a holster for this frame. There is a video by AIM SURPLUS that mentions some holsters for it that already work.
Take a lighter to your holster and it’ll fit
No mention of price, no direct link?
Are those things forbidden?
TH-cam will not allow it on our channel.
They were $49
Do they make one for gen 4?
No, because they do not want to get sued by Glock.
@@CalebSavant patents expire on gen 3?
Gen 3 parents are expired.
What about gen 5 who has 1-3
Baby please, I'm jonesing real bad. GIVE US A G17 SIZED VERSION 😭😭😭
I wish this was gen 5 compatible
That would be great! Glock would sue the pants off of anyone trying it though.
More coo! Glocky stuff 👍🤠 Now go & drink some more coffee Bro. & Wake UP 😅
Sadly to say the frame isn't robust and well made. I have less than 150 rounds, and the cracked and inner structure pieces fell out. Mainley in the structure that the recoil spring ingages the lower. Absolutely unsafe to shoot and unrepairable. Honestly there are better aftermarket lowers and I have to go back to Polymer 80. In addition to the lower isnt truly gen 3 compatible. In many cases it would only function with gen 4 parts. Example gen 4 trigger bars. The polymer used seems to be too brittle. So it has to be destroyed for safety purposes. If you own please be cautious.
$49
I guess I'm having a brain fart but what did he mean by the mag well not being compatible???
For example, the Magpul flared magwell will not fit on this frame.
@@CalebSavant 👍
Plaid shirt, making fun of how cheap and bad with women I am... is this a vintage Garand Thumb video?
just ordered mine and look forward to using them. I've heard the grip texture picks up a lot of grime though. I'm disappointed Brownells isn't selling P80 frames in teh colors they used to offer.... and I mean unserialized P80 frames. We need those back !
how about holster compatibility?
Oh look a frame I'll never own cause it will perpetually be sold out
Once again, a new grip for the outdated gen 3 glock. I have a gen 5 and there is nothing out there for gen 5.
Anyone else had problems woth these guys not wanted to ship to an ffl?
P80.
I want Caleb to Build a Gucci Glock From scratch aftermarket frame and parts and show the performance works.
Don't threaten me with a good time.
@@CalebSavant I want viewers to see is really full filling to do a personal Glock clone to your likes and at the same time get to know your preference in parts options...👍🏻
That is a copy of a Strike Industries Polymer 80 frame.
Maybe beefed up a little, but yeah, basically identical.
@@Pyreleaf Not completely identical. The Strike Industries 80% frames had an issue with the plastic in front of the trigger guard was ever so slightly bent downwards after the extrusion process of making the part. And the only way to straight the frame, was to heat it up and bend it straight again. Hopefully this frame doesn't have that issue.
@@paraglidingnut26 Yeah, I heard about that. Damn shame, because I otherwise dig the whole cyberpunk aesthetic they got going on. Wasn't getting a glock anyways though, so it's a wash in my case.
Too bad California restricts purchasing a piece of plastic…
It’s known to cause cancer and contain lead.
You think you're ragging on how cheap I am, and I think you're bragging.
BuT dOeS iT tAkE gLocK mAgS
Yes, yes it does lol.
I still have not seen anything done as well as polymer80. I love their stuff so much
Ha ha ha that is true is cheaper and they never finish the meal plus they never take it because they will never eat it and they say that it takes space in the fridge 😂
These people always 😂come up with a way to get people to spend money 💰
🤷♂️ it’s a Glock part.
My girlfriend would never let me order for her😂
This! man, she'd kill me, or i'd have to sleep on the couch for at least 6 months.
Caleb out here living in 1950.
