Description
The SCT 17 full-size stripped polymer frame in OD Green is a solid choice if you're building a custom Gen 3 Glock-pattern pistol from the frame up. This isn't a base model — SCT packed it with practical features that shooters actually appreciate, from the aggressive grip texturing to the MIL-STD 1913 Picatinny rail ready for your favorite optic, light, or laser.
What Makes This SCT 17 Frame Stand Out
The engineering here focuses on what matters in your hand. The frame uses a proprietary polymer blend that's tough without being heavy, and the grip contouring actually feels better than a stock Glock 17 to a lot of builders. You get aggressive texturing on the front and backstrap, serrations on the trigger guard and beavertail to help with recoil control and reduce glare, and a flared mag well for faster reloads. The high beavertail gives you a lower profile bore axis and sits better in most holsters. Larger trigger guard cuts mean you can run this with gloves, which matters if you're a winter shooter or run tactical gear.
Building From a Stripped Frame
This frame ships stripped, meaning the polymer body and locking block are all you get — everything else you need to buy separately. That's intentional. Stripped frames give you control over every component going into your build. You'll need a complete lower parts kit with trigger assembly, connector, magazine release, slide stop, and all the pins and springs. Pair it with any Gen 3 full-size slide (17, 22, or 31 — the frames are the same), and you're ready to build. The locking block comes pre-installed to save you a step. Many builders prefer starting stripped because they can choose a trigger they actually like instead of settling for whatever came assembled.
Real-World Details
Overall length runs 7 inches. Weight is just 1 pound without internals. The OD Green finish has become popular with builders who want something a little different than black. The Picatinny rail is the MIL-STD 1913 spec, not a proprietary Glock mount, so you've got tons of options for lights and optics. Multi-caliber compatible means once you have the right internals and barrel, you can run 9mm, .40 S&W, or .357 Sig — just swap the ejector to match your caliber.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to complete this stripped frame?
You'll need a complete lower parts kit that includes the trigger assembly, trigger housing, connector, magazine release, slide stop lever, springs, and pins. Then pair it with a compatible Gen 3 full-size slide and you're ready to go. The stripped frame gives you control over selecting every internal component.
Can I use this SCT 17 frame with a Glock 22 or 31 slide?
Yes. Gen 3 Glock 17, 22, and 31 all use the same frame dimensions. The main difference is the ejector for different calibers — you'll want a 9mm ejector for a 17 slide, .40 ejector for a 22 slide, or .357 ejector for a 31 slide. Check your components to match the caliber.
Is the locking block included, or do I need to buy it separately?
The locking block comes pre-installed on this frame, which saves you assembly work right out of the box. You won't need to buy or install it separately.
What's the difference between the MIL-STD 1913 rail and a Glock rail?
The MIL-STD 1913 Picatinny rail on this frame is a military standard mount that works with any standard Picatinny light or accessory — you've got more options than the Glock-specific rail. Not all older Glock rail accessories will fit, but most modern lights and lasers use the standard Picatinny interface.
