    I picked up 2 full size EAA 9mms today and was taking them apart to clean the grease out. Upon reassembly of both guns I noticed that with one the slide was loose in the frame and could wiggle up and down. The other fit gun fit tight with no play as it should. Any ideas why one would be loose and the other not? Any idea if it's unsafe? I even switched the slides around on the 2 handguns and the one frame still produced a sloppy slide. So I've deduced it's a frame problem and not a slide problem. Any help would be great.

    This is from the factory slop fit up.
    It is not dangerous per say but when you run them back to back it may show in the accuracy.

    Busy day today. I have to go to the Post Office to get a MO to pay for the gun I wasn't going to buy. Then to a gunsmith friend to drop off the D Compact to have the new barrel fit. Trading guns with the Wizard sometime today.
