Duration: 15:44

This video explores the creation of a '0%' chassis-based Glock using Defense Distributed's Ghost Gunner 3S CNC machine. The project leverages a legal injunction against the ATF to mill a regulated internal chassis from raw stock, allowing for customizable, unregulated grip modules. The resulting firearm, tested with a PSA Dagger slide, demonstrates reliable function and potential for duty-grade performance, aiming to bypass new regulatory frameworks.

Quick Summary

A '0%' chassis-based Glock is a custom firearm where the internal chassis is milled from raw stock (0% material) and acts as the regulated receiver. The external grip module is unregulated and customizable, allowing for unique builds and potentially bypassing firearm kit regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a '0%' chassis-based Glock?

A '0%' chassis-based Glock refers to a custom firearm build where the internal chassis, containing critical firing components, is milled from a solid block of raw material (0% stock). This chassis acts as the regulated receiver, while the external grip module can be unregulated and customized.

What is the role of the Ghost Gunner 3S in this build?

The Ghost Gunner 3S is a desktop CNC machine from Defense Distributed used to mill the '0%' Glock chassis from raw aluminum or steel stock. Its precision allows for the creation of firearm receivers and chassis from scratch.

How does the chassis-based Glock design bypass regulations?

By defining the milled internal chassis as the regulated receiver, similar to how some modular pistols work, the external grip module becomes an unregulated component. This approach aims to navigate current and future regulations on firearm manufacturing and kits.

What are the benefits of a chassis-based Glock?

Benefits include enhanced customization of the grip module, potential for improved accuracy and reliability due to precision-milled components, and the ability to build firearms from raw materials, potentially bypassing certain legal restrictions on firearm kits.
