I was talking with someone about how KJW M9s should be compatible with TM M9s, and I was reminded that I tried to put one of my metal KJW M9 slides on my new TM M9A1 (the one described here - don't want to link to an actual product page in non-AVed area), and it wouldn't fit. The TM body itself looks a bit different from the KJW as well.

I've never so much as stripped an older TM M9 before, so I have no first hand experience, but everything I've read says that TM and KJW should be more-or-less a perfect fit, as far as slides, and most other components go.
Does anyone know if the TM M9A1 has made some changes that make it no longer compatible with KJW? And if so, I assume that would mean buying replacement parts (or at least a slide) for the M9A1 would have to be for the M9A1 specifically, and NOT just any old TM M9?
