An outher barrel is not moving during the slide action so the lightness of the plastic slide should be untouched. My question is if there are (HiCapa 4.3) steel barrel fitting the stock slide of the DW without issue?

Incorrect. In fact, the outer barrel DOES move during slide action... IF you're using a traditional tilting barrel. If you install a tilting metal barrel with a plastic slide, you will destroy the slide and it will eventually lock up on itself every time you fire.
If you wish to do a metal barrel upgrade, make sure you pick up a non-tilting metal barrel, such as the ILLusion Kinetics one.
