So, got a PF940 in black, with the jig and bits in the G34 configuration. Sooooooooo what's next? Any tips or tricks I need to know about before starting this franken build? Best place for cheapest parts or best practices for starting it? Anything to NOT do or stay away from? And is there anything I can do with the grip (outside of Talon grips)? Not trying to build a super gun, just a fun shooter on the cheap. Plus, I want to make it weird as hell!! Gold, silver, greens, blues. These are all acceptable colors for slides and barrels and parts.

Get yourself a good set of hand files and take your time. I went with the Compact frame as it has metal rear rails and double undercut trigger guard. Took all of 30-minutes file and sand the necessary areas. The slide is the most expensive portion of the build so shop around. I was fortunate to pickup a aftermarket G19 slide made by Shadow Systems for $265.00. Good luck, I'll wait to build a standard size frame when they release the v2.
