You're welcome Mike.
Ref a new frame. . . . . I believe we sent some to Williams when Remington made the purchase, but those were prototypes and most likely would need work to be usable. The .380 frames we had, which were the same frame with serial numbers for that caliber, I had to cut in half, take photographs to show they were destroyed and then they were scraped. What a shame there. As mentioned, look for an R9 with a bad slide and grab that to make use of the frame.
