I wonīt buy it..
Why would you want one of this for..it is too expensive $299..then you have to buy the slide and the barrel..you are going to espent more than the actual cost of a new glock..for a copy, a gun without brand and a manufacturer without experiece on guns just on parts...what about the reliability..

You're KIDDING, right? This is somewhere along the lines of "don't buy one of those Glocks - they all go KABOOM!", right?

It is a new design being added to a platform with arguably the best reliability record for an autoloader - people should be skeptical. It may be great or it may have issues. They may be able to resolve those issues, but Lone Wolf can have NOWHERE NEAR the R&D budget of Glock so I expect growing pains.
Some of you have an addiction and will buy it anyway and I'm sure plenty will end up in the parts drawer with all the other stuff you bought that you found to be subpar to the factory parts.

i definitely hear what you're saying. i however also thought of this as well. I don't mind having couple parts from an aftermarket source, but having built a whole pistol with MOSTLY aftermarket parts would semi-ERK me. I still thing the new frame they're coming out is fine as long as the price isn't too much..

It's been pointed out the $299 is something else. This frame will be lower than $200. You put it on an existing slide + barrel that you already have.

I plan on getting one of his custom slides and barrels in .40 and the frame and building a nice USPSA limited gun.

Mag funnel?
I can see competing in SSP or Production with one, if they were legal, but in Limited you'd be at a disadvantage. Beveled mag wells don't help all that much on their own.

You are totally wrong! The frame you see in the home page advertisement is a MODIFIED GLOCK FACTORY G22 FRAME. We started with a 3rd gen G22, did a frame reduction, added a few more goodies, 3 mags, box, cleaning kit & lock. Smoking deal at $299
Our new frame is completely custom built from the magwell up! It has more features and is a full 3/8 to 1/2 inch smaller in the grip than a factory frame. They should come in under $200
"Could blow up" (are you for real). First of all.... anything can happen but you are way off base here because this is absolutely impossible! Frames don't blow up! Barrels can blow up but frames don't. Barrels sit inside slides that sit on a frame. FYI: A Lone Wolf barrel has never experienced a catastrophic failure (read "blow up"). NEVER, NOT ONE.
I guess we are lucky huh? Lucky with our barrels and maybe, hopefully just as lucky with the frames.

I already thought of that and already have a solution. It will make for a fine Limited gun.

This I know, LWD and JR have always stood behind their products. JR has made excellent high quality products that perform. LWD is an innovator of the 1st order ,not just supplying Glock Parts but also making inovatting custom parts that, in my experience , are of incrdeible value at great prices.
They are a major sponsor of this website and people who know little or nothing about them should get more information rather than making stupid comments about things they know little if anything about.
Keep up the great work JR. Anyone who has dealt with you or your company pays little attention to those who just want to chime in with their 2 cents and know little or nothing about what they are talking about. Just demonstrates a level of ignorance.

Last I read at the beginning of this thread the topic was about a new product (If you don't like it - read and move on)
Let the rest of us share with each other and enjoy the thought of something new - now please go away...
Back on topic I hope -

Glock certainly can't say this, I don't know what has got everyone wetting their pants over your new product. I would say that they are ill informed and should maybe let things go for a while before denouncing a product that has no track record performance. If anything, they should go on your proven track record with your other fine products.

I am not offended but am scratching my head a lot on this one (blow up).
I appreciate the input received from this chat room. A lot of the products we currently provide are the result of conversations held right here on GT. When I see this stuff I seriously ask "why not", when it seems so many others ask "why". I feel I have an excellent advantage to act on an idea, considering my position. I know most all the top shooters, best machine shops and a slew of innovators dieing to present excellent products. They also ask the same questions.... "why not".
Its really not a big deal to get a bunch of guys together and make something happen, something worth while. The Glock market is huge! So huge that a small percentage of partakers will carry you a very long way. I am utterly surprised this has not happened before now? I am grateful this project falls on our plate. We will be able to take it a very long ways.

Sounds like another non-informed individual spewing out non-information.

JR, I will buy one.  Ignore the "expert" loafers sitting around the wood stove here. Thanks for having the fortitude to do this as I truly believe that if your frame is at least as strong as the OEM Glock frame then you'll have a winner.
