Does this frame have a different grip angle than the OEM?
Finally got a chance to put a few rounds through mine. Fired two G17 mags of 147 grain, 2 mags of 124 grain (both american eagle) and 51 rounds of my duty 124 grain +P gold dots. Trigger housing pin did not seem to move. I really need to wring it out, however I didn't have the time due to my instructing duties. Hopefully I can hit an open range soon to get my red dot fully sighted in.
Any updates?
I recently used my Nomad frame in a little instructor development class. Not high round count but the gun runs fine and seems to shoot pretty well. I find the frame to be completely comfortable and quite an improvement, ergonomically, over a standard Glock.
I guess my only complaint is that that rear pin still seems to want to walk. It can't fall out because my hand is in the way when I'm gripping the gun but still that pain shouldn't move around at all.

I fiddled around with a couple different drill bits trying to find a pin that is slightly bigger than the steel pin that comes with the frame. The Nomad pin measures 2.99-3.00 mm depending on where it is measured. This is using some inexpensive digital reloading calipers. The closest drill bit I could find that is likely to work for a pin is a #31 that measures 3.08 mm. It pokes into the frame and through the ejector housing pretty easily so it might work once cut off to about 3/4 of an inch.
But before I do that I'm going to try a factory Glock plastic pin. Maybe the reduced mass will help the pin stay put under recoil.
