I love seeing these aluminum framed pistols coming out. Almost my entire life, polymer frames have dominated the market. I love my Glocks and always will, but I'm getting bored of plastic. Refreshing to see something a little different and would like to shoot one of these sometime.
Agreed, also really cool to be able to take what is essentially the same gun, just with a different material for the frame and compare the feel, recoil impulse, etc.
I feel the same way too
I like the aluminum idea too. Im getting sick of polymer. Unless its new and 3d printed for something nuts like a mac n cheese
@@CallofDoobie585 Is very easy to "lost PLA" cast (aluminum) a 3d printed Glock frame. Can build a casting setup with everything needed for under $100 to about $300 (if you want good tools to make things easier and decrease failure chances).
@Whatever Yo! more like the same design.
Should have named it the Alpha Gloxtrot.
2:09 For people who don't know, Alpha Foxtrot is the American importer & subsidiary of Dasan Machineries, Korea's firearm & firearm parts manufacturer. So, AF-C is made in Wan-ju, Korea, not Duluth.
Good to see somebody knows more than this guy
@@danielpadgett2831 It was my mistake dude. Check this out-
In addition to Dasan's state of the art factories in Korea, Dasan has invested heavily in US manufacturing with our 80,000 sq ft manufacturing facility located in Duluth, GA.

These are really nice pistols, very accurate. I had dependability issues with mine, which was a show stopper.
God i wish they made this in a 80% kit omfg id be right on that
Very cool. I have always been surprised by the lack of metal framed striker fired pistols.
I and many trust them more than aluminum. Plastic and all steel seems to be the best.
One of the best channels on TH-cam when it comes to guns!
Nothing like the feel of a gun with weight. Carried a Ruger P90 as a off duty gun my first year out the academy. Still feels good.
I just bought a Ruger KP90(k means stainless) 2 days ago at my lgs, it was basically new, still in case with papers, magazine still had warning sticker on it. Grabbed it for 325 out the door.
This is the first new pistol I've seen in several years that really interests me. I'd love to see a Glock 43 or 42 version, which I could easily see myself purchasing.
Looks like the gun world is coming around full circle. Back in the day we had lots of alloy frame pistols like the 3rd generation Smiths. Then the Glocks came out and everyone went polymer. Now alloy pistols are coming back. This looks like a real nice pistol. I'm still a fan of all metal guns even though I love my polymers too.
Me personally and I think alot of other people are sick of paying 500, 600+ for a chunk of plastic. I dont care how far polymers have advanced, there's nothing like an all metal handgun.
@@Cardel34 it all works the same, one just weighs half as much.
@@jonboy9734 which one would you be proud to pass down to your son?
@@jonboy9734 clearly from this video it’s not “half as much”
I am here for the return of metal guns. 👍🏻
I love the way it looks! Reminds me of the 48 I wanted and never got. Good job!
That is so sad, sorry to hear you never got it. Not to throw salt in the wound but I bought my daughter the G48, it is an amazing little pistol. Reminds me of the old "Secret" deodorant slogan - strong enough for a man but made for a woman". For real - it is a chick pistol....... that I would shamelessly rock.
@@Ten_Mil_Will I love that you did that for her, and the Secret comment, too! 😂 Well done, dad! 💜
AF needs to make more videos of their guns
GREAT MUSIC!! Another thorough and interesting review. Steel to aluminum to polymer and back to aluminum. Thanks.
This looks like a really nice piece. As a Glock 19 fanboy, I’d love to add one to the family! Good work Sootch!
Beautiful job another excellent review.
Thanks Sootch!
The only glock clone I'm excited about is the palmetto dagger micro 9. Also can't wait to get my hands on the glock carbine.
Never seen the shadow systems? Make glock look like a hi point.
Love the pistol don't love the price at 200 more than a glock it's hard not to just get the glock
Why be a clone and cost more than the genuine original I’d get a Psa dagger
I just found one for sale NIB for $534 buy now with free shipping on GB. If you look hard enough you can find one for the same price or less than an original Glock. My guess is that not many people know about this gun therefore don't search for it. Mine was for sale for days before I decided to pull the trigger.
Finally something i am looking for
This reminds me of CCF race frames from back in the day
Great video as always!
Cool find! Yea, that piques curiosity- an Aluminum framed G19 (style) gun, made in the South. Hellz yea! Btw I agree - the G19 is, without a doubt, the ultimate "best of everything" size for a pistol.
The intro love them
I hope to see these available in stores soon!
I appreciate it but I try to support my local people as much as possible.
I will ask them about it first if they aren’t getting I might try him though!
It may seem like a dumb observation, but I find it interesting that this pistol has its grip texturing cut into the aluminum frame itself. It stands in contrast to most other aluminum-frame pistols that have external grips that are screwed into the frame.
AF-C: Glock...Perfection
YES!
I like that extended beaver tail. More manufacturers should do that.
When I make my next build or if a Glock frame or slide ever fails, this would be the 'go to' source for parts.
That gen 3 has the Glock smile 😃
Now we need one in 80%
Ty
I hope Alpha Foxtrot is paying you royalties for the advertising!🤣 They should!
Excellent reviews, BTW, Im in the process of watching every one I can find..
I like this a lot. More for the frame than the slide, but you could always switch out with some other aftermarket slide.
Great Looking Pistol
Looks great, smart clone. It does not have a slide stop/ slide release on the right side. But you have two diffrent glocks one with right side slide release and one without it seems.
I picked mine up last weekend and today I put 85 rounds of 124 gr. And 115 grain brass case Blazer through it. Every round, without fail, resulted in a failure of the weapon to lock fully into battery until the trigger fully reset. Anyone else ever experience this with any gun? I used the included Pmags and a Factory Glock 19 mag, same results. Every round, every time.
I like the metal frame...might have to look into one...
Excellent review, thanks you, appreciate the video, A ++++++
Great video. You can actually change out a Gen 3 ejector with a Gen 4 ejector. Much more consistent results and only a few dollars.
A Gen.5 G26 ejector is even better.
I got bored of polymer a while ago. So I got me an aluminum framed da sa CZ
This AF C looks cool
Nice looking pistol Buddy, thanks for showing it to us. I have always said, if I was to buy a Glock it would be the 19.
That's cool AF ...C!
Third generation Glock the Best of all them in My opinion. always the more simplest the best
Love this! Going to buy a new one I just saw it's not the alpha foxtrot though
I think frames and completed pistols are originally made in South Korea by a factory called Dasan. It's the same pistol sold in Italy as the Nuova Jager GMP9.
I like the Aluminum Frame instead of the ploymer Frame The Metal Frame reduces and the felt recoil
Now that’s exciting- wonder if they will release a 43/48 frame
I’m ALL for upgrades in design. I’m not so sure I want an aluminum frame though the weight increase is negligible. Although I don’t gripe about the weight when I’m carrying my 1911 commander which I do occasionally. But I do absolutely LOVE & prefer to carry my G19!
I like metal handguns.
Reminds me of the RIA STK100!
I haven't held a metal frame pistol in so long
nice gun
Nice looking pistol, but not enough changes, night sights would have helped in its selling point with the few changes they’ve made. (My opinion). I’m not sold on it because of the sights to be honest, I’ll stick to my gen 3 for now. Sig gives its customers nice night sights, My CZ p01 omega came with decent night sights I’ve never understood why glock stays with the poly sights.
In my opinion it's a big change going from polymer to aluminum.Sights can easily be swapped out for night sights.Not a deal breaker by any means.
I bought one of these a couple weeks before this video came out. The trigger was SO much worse than a standard glock. I also had a couple issues. The striker would drop when the trigger would reset and the slide lock didnt engage one the P-mags it came with. I thought at first it was a mag issue, but what I ended up doing was buying a glock lower parts kit for about 40 bucks and replaced the trigger housing, connector, trigger, trigger bar, and slide lock and the gun functioned perfectly after. Despite me not painting this gun in the best light, it is a gun I really enjoy. I love the aluminum frame. Now the the trigger has been replaced with a standard glock trigger, its not bad at all. I fully intend to carry this gun.
standard glock triggers are horrendous
@@angeloroberts5573 Yeah they're not great, but comparatively to what was in it before, it's a world of difference. I do intend to upgrade the trigger again at some point, but there are so many choices.
did you have any problems removing the trigger pins? I just got one of these and the pins are super tight in the frame?
@@waynepalmer5107 the pins on my gun were really tight too. After getting them out, some went in much easier and others still needed the brass hammer to get back in place
Rock island armory has all read done a very fine Glock clone the STK-100
Love it. I want to build one for fun...
I want an aesthetically modern aluminum frame for my keltec p32 that flush fits the ten round mag and I’d pay more than the gun was worth to make it near perfect micro gun
Sootch, you should check out the KCI USA glock mags. I reviewed them and they're pretty great, cheap and been pretty much perfectly reliable for me. I have close to 10 G17 and several of their AR mags also.
Kci is a awful company.
I'd love an 80% frame of this.
I wish I had a job like yours, to shoot and review guns😆
Already own a few big bore Glocks, thinking about picking up a 19. This might be interesting if they hadn't changed the grip angle. It's also quite expensive. I bought a 21, brand new, last year, for 550 bucks.
That really looks like a very nice quality firearm. That aluminum frame should make it a bit nicer to shoot over the poly Glock I bet. If Palmetto had not made their Dagger I would be seriously considering this if it came with the optics cut. 7075 is some really super strong forged aluminum. I doubt most folks even understand how much stronger it is. They could easily have made this out of 6061 I bet.
I like this gun very much...the look and interchangeable mags....a glock clone❤
The new Live Free Armory AMP has me MUCH more interested than this, if I was in the market for an aluminum frame Glock clone. The AMP is an aluminum frame “Gucci Glock” starting at $699 with high end parts and a slide cut
It really looks like a FN type slide on a Glock/1911 body
A glock and a s&w sigma had a baby and it grew up.
That slide look like came out of a sci-fi movie not so nice price $690.00 ouch. Great video.
Shield arms or another company needs to come out with an all metal magazine for the glock 19 and the other models,
What is the pin at the back edge of the slide on the frame? It is not on the Glock.
I think I will stay with my Glock. If the 'flex' is that bad then I think it would be fixed by now.
I would like them to make an 80% version of these.
Maybe this would replace the 19 for those who want a heaver frame.
No thank you. I hate knock-off guns that copy other designs. Taurus did the same thing to Smith and Wesson. Appreciate the review though, Sootch! Always great content!
I only wish for this in full-size size 5.7 .
I like the rigidity and the beaver tail, I would imagine the P-mags, in part are to give little compensation for the weight difference but my thing, so it seems is going to be my X-lg. hands. I fear the aluminum frame sitting a little loosely in my hand may. want to wobble around a bit.
I have a full sized, G21 with Hogue slip on grip and I can get my hands around that just fine. It's just a full hands worth. We'll see.
Aluminum, does this mean my gun won't go through metal detectors, now?? 😉
Glock needs to add aluminium frames for gen5. That’s what the market is leaning to. Metal guns are coming back into popularity. Also the plastic sights on the AFC.. like come on man.
Reminds me of an old FN and Glock mashup, I think it's kinda sexy
I wish slide looked like normal boxy slide Glock. Unless there was copyright stuff
Finally a clone with an aluminum frame.
What I don't understand that that af-c is new right? Then compare it to new glocks not old. That is called a two stage trigger not sponge or bad.
Beautiful 😍
Everybody wants to be like Glock. That should tell you something.
And Glock wants to be sig, Walther, HK, or even CZ
@@tomb6724 what ? Bro that makes no sense what so ever.
Ya, it means they make cheep mags....
@@EastCoastMan603 why do you think the military chose the Sig? Glock has brought nothing new to the table for a decade
@@tomb6724 How so? Glock has never changed their design to be like anyone. CZs are probably close, but everyone else is in the backseat.
Cool
Nice gune 😎😎😎😎
First thing I would do to this pistol is change the sites out!
Then stop typing and get to it
First thing I would do with this pistol is trade it in on a real Glock.
Then go get Glock mags and Glock recoil spring assembly...
I want one
@Well know on telegram as Daniel Micheal Thanks bud!!
Pozdrawiam super gun
There are some things I like about it ,the tail , index pad and thumb rest , grip not so blocky,. Shooting is the best comparison, if scootchOO says it's better I believe him , the big question does it fit all the G-19 holsters ? I do like the Glock square trigger guard , that's one thing I don't like about it .
Leather, probably. Kydex, that's the real trick and the question I also had.
I PREFER a clone that fits all the standard holsters myself… however Kydex is EASY you can use a hair dryer to heat and slightly reform to your clone. It’s easy doesn’t hurt the gun. I did this with my Poly80 PFS9 G17 clone, worked fine.
If there is any doubt that Don is a Glock 19 fan, watch this video a couple more times. I see another Glock Clone Comparison video update coming our way. Hooray for a metal frame! This one might fit my hands better than my fat Glock 19.
Sweet...now if they made the frame for a Gen 5...
Can you do a glock 22 gen 5 review please
I wish someone would make a Glock clone with a manual safety
Lone wolf did, it's called the Guardian but I think its discontinued
They do. It’s called keeping your booger hook off the trigger.
CAN YOU DO A GLOCK 22 GEN 5 review??
Will this fit most glock holsters though?
I like this video price us outrageous
CZ PCR 👍✔
Excellent video, as always. Not impressed with another Gen 3 clone, that's more expensive than the original. I have two 19's. I don't need a more expensive clone. The Dagger I understand. Good gun for half the price of the original. That makes sense for a truck gun or a backpack gun. If I want to spend more money, I'd buy another H&K.
Stk100 ain't bad either rock island done good job with it
Love this! I would love an aluminum frame version!
Wonder if they will make barrels in the new .30 Super Carry?
