If you made a polymer copy of a steel or aluminum frame, and dropped the slide on?
Assuming you had good blend of plastic (like glocks), how do you think it would do without the metal reinforcements you see on most (all?) polymer pistols.
I'm assuming there'd be something to the concept of shaving, which brings to mind Kahrs (which apparently shave a little plastic) versus glocks (which apparently don't).
I ran into this article which makes a couple of interesting points about the flexibility of polymers, but I don't know who that guy is to listen to, so...
I'm not trying this, I was just thinking about it. I promise. More or less.
