Does anyone know an online ffl where you can buy just a glock 19 gen 4 frame?
Easiest place to find them seems to be Gunbroker.
There’s a couple on Gunsamerica.com Use the search of Glock 19 Lower.
Does it have to be a Gen 4? If you can use a Gen 3, these are a decent deal:

Otherwise you are going to spend around 200-ish bucks on Gunbroker, like the others mentioned.
Yeah it has to be a gen 4 I found one on lucas tactical but he said they wont be in stock for a while. at 250-300 dollars I might as well buy a new glock. Is the gen 3 better than gen 4 or even a gen 5?
That’s a whole debate, they all have pros and cons. I wish Polymer80 would come out with Gen 4 frames to play with.

The current gen3 frames can be made to work with gen 4 slides

What needs to be done?
I’m amazed how cheap the stripped Gen 3 frames are going for on GB. Definitely cheaper to buy one of those and a $50 parts kit than a complete frame. I’m tempted to buy one just to stash away (possibly as a host for the Brownells slide I’m planning to purchase). I’m guessing those are partly fueled by the demand for slides for Polymer80 lowers.
I heard that there is some trademark issue with Polymer80 offering Gen 4-compatible frames, as in the Gen 3 design can be duplicated because of its age, but not the Gen 4. Any truth to that?
I have an idea how but I would really like to know as well.
