I haven't heard anyone mention this yet.....so I thought I'd share.
I just picked up the new G2C today....and began comparing it with my PT111 G2 and found something interesting. The frame rails (and corresponding slide grooves) are a few thousandths of an inch thicker/larger on the G2C. Not a lot....but just enough that the PT 111 G2 slide will not fit onto the newer frame. The new slide, however, WILL fit and function on the older frame....
The G2C is in black....and the PT111 G2 is in tan:
I'm not even sure if you can SEE the difference here....but it's sure there. I'm wondering if that was done on purpose....or if it's just variations on tolerances. Otherwise, minus the absence of the safety lock) the slides are identical.
Thoughts?
