DO all Kahr's slides run on polymer frame rails?

Shoild I be worried about this on my CW45?

I had a P9, and frankly I don't remember.

They're not polymer.  Check the dust cover rails.  They're metal, just have polymer on top.  Makes it look like it's only polymer.

front and back have steel rails iinbedded in the polymer grip when made.  Your slide only touches the top polymer rails when inserting the slid eont he gun, all they do is guide the slide onto the gun. Once on, THEY DO NOT  TOUCH THE SLIDE. Fear not your polymer is built liek a brick shit house. the front railin the dust cover is also a one peace part, not two separate railes...

I see the steel imbeds at the rear of the frame, but not the front.

I'll look again.
