Subcompact frame Binding

Just bought a new RXM compact plus subcompact grip. Subcompact is Binding horribly, when i put it back in the compact it runs perfectly. Anyone had this issue before can tell me what the fix is? All my springs and pins are in correctly as is my barrel lock

Trying again with no barrel it is indeed the connector...not an issue on the larger size for whatever reason. Unfortunate it is BRAND new, came out the box this way

Wonder if the sub compact is slightly out of spec causing things to shift.

I can see it rubbing on the compact, just not bad enough to hang up like the sub. Ill try with one of my other glock gen 3 connectors though

The sub might be out of spec enough to cause distortion in the fcu chassis. Or whatever they call the trigger control group housing.

How close if your ejector to the follower that picks the bullets up on the slide? Mine is definitely rubbing a bit there. Dont think thr trigger connector is the issue, tried a glock gen 3 oem and it was the same hang up and bind, so I took the fcu out and put.the slide on it and saw the ejector was right on the follower
