How beneficial if all are are slide lightening cuts (if at all) - like in the pictures. A lot of them seem like decoration, but I figured that their must be some benefit. Only things I can think of are (1) reducing overall weight (however slight), (2) reducing muzzle flip due to having less reciprocating mass over than hand.
- Are any of ^these^ true?
- Is a lighter slide easier to cycle and thus more reliable?
- If a slide is too light, could it have difficulty stripping rounds on its way back into battery (too little mass?)?
- Has anyone with these noticed more gunk inside the actions?
- Any other effects I've missed from changing the original designed weights?
Curious if anyone would actually use this on a duty/military gun?
