I have had 2 of their steel/stainless steel slide for my G17(old version for SS, new version for steel), and their old and new version of the G17 steel barrel(old version is one piece machined, new version is cast chamber and thread on machined barrel). The old barrel works with both version of the slide. The new barrel doesn't work(at least I never got it to work) with either version of the slide. YMMV on that case.

With the working slide though the gun runs pretty much perfect. Aside from the heavy mass which will kill your mileage and adds cool down, the gun has no issue function wise. Heavier rate recoil spring is a must(the included 200% spring works, but supplementing that is recommended). Their newer aluminum slide(labeled as 7075 Aluminum) should be largely similar with their newer steel slide, which are both CNCed not cast like their HiCapa/1911/P226/Beretta...etc stuff. So fitment is better. My guess is because Glock slides are relatively easy to make compare to all of those....

As with all metal bits for GBBs, some fitting are to be expected...
