Yep, a couple months ago I got a new frame on mine... none of my Kydex holsters would work, either (the downside to the frame upgrade). Comp-Tac is the only one making holsters for it, to my knowledge.

Does the new frame still get a different serial number or did they finally start matching the it with the old serial number?

[dmb12984]

it still has the 1 in front followed by the original number.

Was there a reason you needed an upgrade? Was it a recall? I own an early model 30 and would LOVE to have Glock give me a frame with rails. Is there any way I can check?

you have to call glock and get them to check your serial number. just say i was wondering if my glock 30 was affected by the frame upgrade. then give them the serial number and they will let you know. it was not a recall just an optional thing that the warrenty department was doing. only the guns with serial numbers starting with E were affected. here is the number to call glock

770-432-1202

I called about 3-4 weeks ago, was told would take 6-8 weeks to get frame from Austria, get a call 2 &1/2 weeks later. Frame is here. now I gotta find a shipping source, same day I wrap the pistol up, my Wrecker driver has to pickup a dealer transfer from.....Smyrna,GA.

the gears begin turning. I type up a fancy schmansy letter, give him directions in Smyrna and off he goes. All is well.

not 5 days later,and these are not working days mind you, the UPS guy drops off my Frame upgraded G30, (and YES it has the rails) with added Trij/night sites I had installed.

I couldn't have been more surprised than to see this on my counter when I returned from the range today.


Life is good.

Sent mine in because of a small crack in the frame.When I got it back and opened the box,it had rails!!
They also upgraded the extractor and sent along a Glock keychain.
