Benefits of Building Your Own Customized Subcompact Frame
Building your own customized subcompact frame offers a multitude of benefits for gunbuilders of all experience levels. Firstly, it allows you to create a firearm that perfectly suits your needs and preferences.

Tools Required for Building the PF940SCTM Kit
Building your own customized subcompact frame with the PF940SC kit requires a few essential tools. While the kit provides many components, there are a few tools you'll need to have on hand to ensure a successful build. Here's a list of the tools required for building the PF940SC kit:
- Drill press or milling machine: This is crucial for completing the 80% frame and properly milling the necessary channels and holes.
- End mill bit: A high-quality end mill bit is essential for milling the frame. It's important to use a sharp and precise bit to ensure clean and accurate cuts.
- Vise: A sturdy vise is necessary for securely holding the frame in place while you work. Make sure it can grip the frame tightly without damaging it.
- Drill bits: You'll need a set of drill bits for drilling holes in the frame for pins and screws. Make sure to use the appropriate size for each hole.

Having these tools readily available will make the building process much smoother and ensure that your PF940SC frame turns out exactly how you envisioned it.
Enhancing Your Concealed Carry with Customized Subcompact Frame Features
Enhancing your concealed carry experience goes beyond just building your own subcompact frame. With the PF940SC, you have the power to customize and personalize every aspect of your handgun, taking it to the next level. Add a stippled grip for improved control and comfort, or opt for an extended magazine release for quicker reloads. The possibilities are endless.
By customizing your subcompact frame, you can also enhance your accuracy and performance. Upgrade your trigger for a smoother and crisper pull, or install night sights for improved visibility in low light conditions. These small changes can make a big difference in your overall shooting experience.
