G17 upper on G19 lower?

[Raider556]

Is it possible to put a Glock 17 upper on a G19 lower?

Is it possible to put an Advantage Arms .22LR G17 kit on a G19 Lower?

Thanks in advance for all the help

Seeing as the two are completely different lengths...I'm gonna guess no, but I'm not an expert...

The internals are the same. Only slide and barrel length differs. (of course recoil springs) But the independant uppers fix that.

Anyone have some experience?

I've searched and found nothing. My wife has small hands

The grip is supposed to be the same on both but longer on the G17. So it should not matter if your wife has small hands. The trigger reach is the same.
I imagine there would be a gap between the slide and the frame as the "dust-cover" is shorter on the G19.

I'm sure you have alot of experience. But I look for facts?

Anyone tried something similar?

No you will need an upper for a 19-23 check

Thanks for helping me

Guess i'll have to have a complete G17 kit for me and a complete G19 kit(with longer barrels) for the wife.

CGN has rescued me once again!

It will fit, but there is an unsightly gap fore of the dustcover. Not the best.

 

[Raider556]

Does it function?

If you have both can you take pics? ...do a function test?

Test that the barrel fits properly in the locking block?

 

[Slavex]

The locking block on the barrel is different

Hah! I wish this could be done as well. I would love to get a AA kit for my glock 19, but they are really hard to find in canada, Police ordanance is the only place that can get a aa kit with an extended barrel for a g19 that would be legal in Canada. A gun store near me has the g17/22 AA kits in stock, I almost want to by a g22 just to get the AA kit.
