Yep, I already talked to him, I guess I need to get with him soon! Having problems finding a 32 slide, except for a stock glock product. Hoping to find a stripped slide and choose my own components. Ooops! I think I'm taking this thread off topic, should probably be in the pistol forum.

No worries that's what we do here .
Am I wrong to think all you need is a .40 Slide and a 357sig barrel? I thought the extractors and all were the same but I can't verify as I've never messed with one personally. I'm asking more than stating at this point.

I'm not 100% sure, but I found a guy that has a store and sells 32 slides, complete. I've got some questions I need to ask, but a stock Glock complete slide would probably make me want to buy a non-glock non-polygonal barrel. Other than that, I'd probably drop the striker spring from 6lb to 5lb. So I'd rather find a 32 slide or compatible, and buy my own components.
As to your question, I've seen that before with some heated debate, but can't remember what the consensus was. I'll need to talk to an aftermarket parts mfg about this.

I know that the main compatibility issue between 9mm and .40 Glock slide parts (for the same frame size) is exterior barrel diameter. I can't say I know the measurements between a .357 Sig barrel and a .40 but that probably going to be the main thing you need to check. The extractor and pretty much every other compatibility variable I can think of are the same.

Better double-check that. I don't think the extractor is the same. Or maybe it was the ejector? I used to be a Glock Certified Armorer but I haven't bothered to re-certify ... kind of lost interest. But I do remember them having different parts. They would often work, but not with 100% reliability.

From Rainier:
"After testing of the new lower frames, Polymer80 decided to do a nitride treatment on portions of the lower to increase durability and longevity. Unfortunately, this will delay the lowers until the end of the month. As soon as we get them in, they will be ready for pickup or to be shipped out. I apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you very much."

Well that explains why I haven't seen them yet. I assume it's more of an internal area being nitrided. Hopefully it won't affect BC and his awesome work.

Awww Crap! Well, better to get them right than rush them out, I suppose. As far as the slide issues, I spoke with the people at Lone Wolf (and purchased a bare slide). Their slides are marked underneath with .357/.40. According to them, all slide components are the same, for the .357 Sig and the .40 cal. So, I guess that makes that pretty easy.
