P320 stripped and 80% receivers: Project or expensive headache?
Hey all-

I have seen some 80% receiver kits for the P320 as well as some stripped factory receivers floating around.
I am curious to know if anyone has built one up? Are parts kits available? Are they expensive?
I like the idea of buying an upgraded trigger kit (GGI, Apex) and dropping it into a stripped receiver but I don't know if the other parts are prohibitively expensive or even available to those of us that aren't factory armorers.

What do you know?

Some 80% P320 info in this thread.... https://sigforum.com/eve/forums...0601935/m/5090033524

Glock 17/19 seems to have been the standard for 80% pistol builds. I want to do one myself one day. some info on the P80's if you've not seen it. Tons of parts, but you don't save any money, and you have to want to build something. For me it's pretty much the satisfaction of saying "I built that" more than anything else, since you don't really save money.

But, if P320 80% kits are there, then that might be even better.

It seems like the stripped ones are the way to go. Less work for a cheaper price.
