[QUOTE="Mad Professor, post: 3276414, member: 5316"] The 17M was basically a Gen 5 released pre Gen 5. The early Gen 5 frames were not beveled also. I believe they started beveling the Gen 5s to match the slide after the first 3-4 months of production These 17Ms, although recently released, have frames that were manufactured much earlier than the 17.5 I have that was purchased a year ago. (Based on the frame ID number, not serial). I would assume these are contract overruns or parts from the overruns. The internals are not DLC coated like the contract guns however. So it is possible they were later assembled from some earlier components. [/QUOTE]
