Good findings n-force!
The slimmer frame means only 1 thing. Easier to break and does not support after-market slides as good.
The original frame is always too soft, using a steel metal slide or even hardened aluminium slide always puts a lot of wear on the rails.
If the rails are this skinny now, one might want to get a matching slide and frame set instead of having to just upgrade the slide like what most do with the old 5.1/4.3 design.
The gun looks great out of the box, for those wanting something out of the box and "ready to go" this might be a good choice, but for people who are looking to build a full custom race-gun its always best to start with something else.
