Long story short, I picked up a DE a few years ago. The DE I bought was a MKVII frame with a MKXIX conversion slide and barrels in .50 and .44.
The gun came with the original MKVII slide and .44 barrel. Now I have an extra slide and barrel that I'd love to find a frame for. Two DE's is better than one.
Just called magnum research, no luck there...they won't sell a frame alone and they won't fit a frame to the slide and barrel if I sent them in. Quoted "trouble with the ATF" which confuses me, I can't see how fitting a frame to parts I send in and then shipping and selling me the gun through my FFL would be problematic.
So I have to find a frame elsewhere. Anybody know where to start looking?
Many thanks
