Here are the two slides I have questions about.

1.
http://airsoft-club.com/shop/gas-gun...hi-capa-2-tone

2.
http://airsoft-club.com/shop/gas-gun...hi-capa-2-tone

Both of say for 4.3, can you verify that it is 4.3 (and not 5.1)?

*p.s I understand the risk of a 5ku, so no need to tell me again.

Sorry, the listing actually has incorrect info.

These are actually meant for a 5.1 short dust cover frame. There is common confusion with these kits, because the slide/barrel length actually matches up with a 4.3 length slide/barrel, but that's not what they're meant to be used with, as you can see by the scalloping near the muzzle. It's a shortened scallop to meet with a short dust cover, as found on the 5.1.

The incorrect product description is the result of copying someone else's product without knowing the reason why a design feature was implemented. It's there for a reason.
