Glock frame flex or am I seeing things?

If this is a concern to you, have a friend load the gun and point it at your head. Then he/she should pull the trigger. If this flex causes the gun to misfire, return it at once!
Disclaimer: This post is motivated by the knowledge that Glock pistols have a gap between the frame and slide that does not affect it's function and so many people are worried about it but the gun still functions so by no means do I wish anyone to point a loaded Glock at anyone else unless in self defence.

That or funky manufacturing processes. Which one you believe depends on how much of the koolaid you drank.
I won't say it is normal as I've seen some Glocks are not like that althought mine also bended a little at the front. It wont affect the function but it does make the so call perfection become NOT SO PERFECT. Anyhow you won't see this happening no the other plastic guns.

It's entirely possible I'm looking into this too much but is this normal for Glocks? I found the pictures looked weird so I drew these straight lines over the pictures. It looks like the front of the frame is flexing upwards?
Thanks in advance
Well thank goodness you noticed that. The retards in Austria have some splaining to do.
It's part of the way it was engineered,
that is why some people have reported problems with Light attachements in the lower rail who is too heavy or stiff and can cause misfire or FTF at times if it impeeds on the flexing...rare but it happens.

Hanging "stuff" on the front of pistols is generally lame anyway...
NAA.
