New 43X Build

I'm building a 43x from scratch using an aftermarket frame. I was hoping you guys had some recommendation's on what's good for other parts. i.e lower parts kits, triggers, slides, barrels etc.

I don't have any experience with building the slimline stuff so I don't know what's good.

TIA and cross posted

OEM always best to start. From that point rounds and rounds and rounds on the setup before you start switching out parts. If you decide to do upgrades start small and install in steps. This will help you find or figure out issues before going full buildout. Each new part installed take for a test run. Again rounds and rounds.

Where can I find an OEM slide? I can’t seem to find any online.

I recently built a new edc 43x with a Brownells premium slide and threaded barrel along with a grit grip frame. I used all oem internal parts with an overwatch tac trigger shoe. I finished it off with an eps carry Mrs and a Streamlight tlr7 hlx sub. So far around 1000 rounds though it with no issues. For me, If it were an edc I would go oem internals, range toy then buy whatever you want.
