While there are differences in the frame, sights, and slide, the most noticable is in the extractor.
The 1st gen guns have a "normal" bar-style extractor, such as this: http://images.gunsamerica.com/upload/976508215-1.jpg The 2nd gen guns have a flat metal spring secured with a hex screw, such as on my personal gun: http://www.hunt101.com/img/352314.jpg It's been 100% reliable. |

I think mine is a 1st generation (it's too far away to check). Should I be worried? I haven't gotten it out to the range to test it yet, so I can't vouch for the reliability...

the weight on the second is VERY close if not the same as the gen1. from a relibility standpoint i can't comment. i have never had a serious feed or extraction problem with either.
