Must have used a smart/not smart phone for this posting...LoL.

Never heard of a composting frame....I think you meant "composite" but your phone auto (in)corrected.

To be more specific, its made from glass reinforced nylon, which is what glocks are made of. It's super light but not as quite as strong as the t6 aluminum the AM and most other guns are made from.

Also, the AM has the ability tone upgraded with an emortal board where the LT can only be upgraded with the APE OLED, Virtue, etc.

Is there a big difference in the emortal board, and the other boards? Is it worth paying the extra money for the AM?

The emortal bd is made by pe, and u can use the stock grips, as it is built into the frame. Basically, u end up using all pe parts, which IMO is the best option.

It can be used on the etek 3 and 4 am.

There is a YouTube video comparing am and lt models.

The emortal board is almost exactly like the ego/geo boards

I certainly understand the budget issues, but PE boards in PE markers is a good idea. Myself I am a fan of virtue products, but when their boards fried solenoids in G6R's Bob Long didn't fix the solenoids neither did Virtue from my understanding. Consider that when making your choice.

Also, u have to do some work to get the virtue board in the gun, I I recall correctly u have to cut part of the grip out.

There is a YouTube vid on it.

etek AM = All Metal. The etek AM is heavier than the LT and made of all metal. The LT is lighter and made of glass reinforced nylon/composite materials (not like glass on a window). This material is on the ASA, feedneck, and the frame. The glass reinforced nylon is extremely durable, strong, and will never break and bend. Ive heard that the AM's frame has bent. Personally the etek LT is a better price and a better deal. I would rather have the LT
