Well to update, I completed a 19 size polymer 80 frame and am running the kit on it. I've only used cheap Remi golden 550 bulk pack so far. Runs good except that at least once per mag the slide locks back with rounds remaining in the mag. Gotta figure that out. Hit the slide release and it's back in business. I'm into it about $350 or so. I saw a G44 NIB for $360, but I was out of state so... around here they are about a hundred more than that. I still prefer the poly80 over the factory frame so as long as I can get it to run OK I'm happy.
If anyone has an idea on the slide lock issue I'm all ears.
ETA: the slide release I have in it has a weak spring. It allows the slide release to float a little bit under the tremendous. 22lr recoil. Just enough to grab the slide. I gotta order a replacement then I should be good.
