This was my second .45 ACP build using the Stealth Arms Jig, and even though I took my time, the lower took only about 2 hours to complete. I used painters tape to protect the lower finish, and it remained perfect. The parts kit I used was from Sarco, with an unmarked USGI-type slide. The major fitting needed was with the barrel lug and the barrel bushing. I used a copy of the War Department 1942 Armorer’s Guide, as well as YouTube tutorials for advice. The pistol functions flawlessly, and looks good.

The finish looks great, seems to be to spec.. waiting on parts so I will update later!

Seems like a fine non firearm object…When I build a gun using this part I’m certain it’ll work just fine.
Seems great, Now I just have to chase up all the other parts and the ammo which, apparently, is now made from that rarest of metals…unobtanium.

Overall experience with this purchase was fine

Received my frame and was impressed immediately. High quality look and feel. Material was easy to work with and easy to adapt to small modifications for the final build (Filing,buffing ,polishing). Couldn’t be happier with the finished product being a beginner. Thank You.

Nicely machined frame. Finishing is made easy without a mill when using the Stealth phantom jig. Very little fitting when carefully selecting parts to finish your build. I only wish they made a compact Officer frame.
Drew Chandler Dennis –
This was one of the easiest and cleanest builds I’ve ever done.
Jason Strutton –
Item as advertised, excellent quality.

Just wish you had more in stock
The 80 percent frame was beautiful and easy to finish using the phantom jig. All 70 series parts fit with little to no fitting. Just when i get started they no longer have them in stock. Bummer!!!

Thes are very nice have not observed any defects thanks.

Above expectations
Comes out beautifully with the phantom jig. Also this frame only take standard barrels out the box. It will not accept a ramped barrel.
Thomas T. –
As good as advertised
Used jig to prepare and everything went very well. Remember to use lubricant when doing the slides.

Seems legit. But I’m a novice in the 80% frame world and haven’t started my build yet, so my review probably won’t help anyone.

Frame came in a nice foam padded box.. The anodizing is much tougher than I expected it to be.. The machining that was done is very nice. I don’t see how you could make a better one.
Mark Snodderly –
These are great frames. Although, I would prefer the steel frames over the aluminum frames.
Eddie Kalbach –
Excellent high quality frame.
