Is there much differnce in a 9mm frame and a .45?

I know the pinned frame ejector is different. Never have I studied too much more than the basic function of the 1911. Once, under duress, I was forced to understand the barrel link and locking interfaces. I found there are 4-5 different link "sizes" or numbers with differing heights and lock-up/slide closing variations. My slide was not flush with the frame but fully locked with the barrel, a different link for the new barrel fixed it. It was close enough to shoot as it was, but sure worried me till I fixed it.

The timing and functions always astonished me in conversations with Kase. Boy there is a LOT to know and he really impressed me with his young in-depth knowledge. It's NOT like amateur slapping an AR together with roll pins and such. Plus you can blow it all up!

Is there a differing in the barrel ramp interface with the frame? I've read about ramp and supported barrels and such but never really understood. I just wondered if there was a big difference or dedicated "9mm/.38 Super frame compared to a 1911?
