4513 Tactical slide on a 457 frame, will it work ?

[lolaralph]

I have a 457, I never liked the "blocky" slide and have always kept my eyes open for a replacement top end. I have found a 4513 slide that I'd like to use if it would work. This particular slide has the "Tactical" billboard if that helps identify the variant. The 4513 slide has no barrel with it so I'd have to use my 457 barrel if that is possible. My 439 currently has a 639 top end so I do like making "frankenguns". Any input would be greatly appreciated

*apparently my memory is terrible, i asked this very question a few months ago. I lost out on that particular slide at the time and put the idea of the swap on the back burner. I received excellent answers the initial time I asked this and will refer to them this time.

Wanna post a link to that thread? That sounds like an interesting read. I like my 457, but I'd be open to the idea for ways to improve it...
