Polymer Frame Parabellum

Glocks are molded with the tenifer heat treated metal in the reciever. Slide rails, stress points etc. As a factory glock armorer its obviously a wonderful design to reduce weight, and less moving parts. However, as a luger owner I cannot see how the receiver could take the punishment of the toggle action. Seems like way too much flexing would go on in the upper part of the receiver. Would have to see one though.
