Commercial price for hi-grade Nylon 6 is about $3.50/lb. Commerical price for hi-carbon steel is about $1.50/lb. Sounds to me like the Glock is actually a better buy.
That assumes that the same amount of material by weight is used in a Glock as in another gun. A pound of plastic probably makes several Glock frames, while a pound of steel probably only makes 1 Sig frame.
