Was considering picking one up to play with anyone have any experience with these? Not so much from a finishing standpoint but from a how well made are they in regards to heavy use.

I've thought about picking one up before, just to play with. The reviews I've read are mixed.

If you do decide to bite, please let us know how it goes. I have also seen these, but am waiting to hear a few 'success stories' (or not).

ditto. I consider myself handy enough to do the job right, but would love to hear some success stories, and possibly some decent round count testing.

I thought they made these things from molds. How does this work? Is it just a chunk of plastic that resembles the frame and you have to machine the rest out?

Funny I was just watching some Youtube vids on this. So far worth researching further.

Soooooo all of us are in the same boat then I've put my hands on one over at the last oaks show(assembled) seems pretty solid I still have some difficulty with the fact the rear slide rails are plastic and not metal but they do provide a lifetime warranty. Still I prefer reliability wondering if I could mill out a rear rail block on my mini mill but I would need to buy the kit then spend even more for parts so in reality it becomes a freakin costly build ..... probably cost less to pick up a leo trade in glock 17 and cannibalize it for the slide assy and parts kit than it would to buy the parts separately. I may need to suffer the extra cash ...... damn it.

Maybe .22 should work?

I looked at the one at Oaks too, and almost parted with my cash. I couldn't get past what looked to me like a $100-$200 premium over a new Glock. I'd like see plenty of positive reviews (and maybe an improved second generation model) before I take the plunge.
