Just curious, is it possible to build a gbb from individual parts? As you can get a grip, lower frame, and slide lets say for a Hi-Capa 4.3, are there certain internals that you would have to purchase the actual Hi-Capa 4.3 to be functional or could you get whatever parts you need and just assemble it?

Reason I'm asking is simply because I was looking at the hicapa 4.3 but I would like to make it full metal and maybe extend the barrel a bit with a freedom art frame and comp or something... But if i'm replacing the slide, frame, and some internals anyway, it might be cheaper to just build it from parts, but maybe not. Anyway, just curious if it's been done or if there is something preventing it from being done.
