17-4 Stainless Steel Turbo Slide with Window Cut
The Stiffler MFG G17 Turbo Slide is constructed from 17-4 stainless steel, a precipitation hardened alloy known for high strength and corrosion resistance. This material provides superior durability compared to standard carbon steel slides. Black nitride finish penetrates the steel surface, providing wear resistance and corrosion protection while maintaining dimensional tolerances. The top window cut reduces slide weight while adding aggressive styling. Weight reduction improves slide cycling speed. Front and rear serrations provide positive grip surface for press checks and manipulation.
Threaded Copper PVD Barrel
The threaded barrel features 416R stainless steel construction with Copper PVD finish. Physical Vapor Deposition creates an extremely hard, wear resistant surface coating that bonds at the molecular level. Copper PVD provides a rich metallic appearance while offering superior scratch resistance and reduced friction compared to traditional finishes. The 1/2x28 thread pitch accepts most 9MM suppressors and muzzle devices. Copper thread protector included with O-ring to protect threads when muzzle devices are not installed and ensure proper fit.
RMR Cut Optics Ready Platform
The slide features an RMR cut machined to accept Trijicon RMR and RMR-S footprint compatible optics. Cover plate included for use without optics. This optics cut allows direct mounting of red dot sights without adapter plates, maintaining a low profile and reducing weight. Optics ready configuration improves target acquisition speed in competition and defensive scenarios.
Premium Material Construction
The combination of 17-4 stainless steel slide and 416R stainless steel barrel provides corrosion resistance and long term durability. Both materials resist environmental degradation better than carbon steel alternatives. Black nitride and Copper PVD finishes add additional protection layers while creating a distinctive two tone appearance.
Windowed Turbo Slide Design
The top window cut reduces reciprocating mass by removing material from the slide top. This weight reduction improves slide cycling speed and provides visual confirmation of chambered rounds. The window cut adds aggressive styling that complements the Turbo Slide design. Front and rear serrations enhance control during slide manipulation.
Suppressor Ready Configuration
The threaded barrel with 1/2x28 thread pitch enables suppressor use for reduced sound signature. Copper thread protector with O-ring protects threads when suppressor is not installed. O-ring ensures proper thread protector fit and prevents loosening. This configuration provides versatility for shooters who want suppressor capability without permanent modification.
Follow safe handling and manufacturer instructions. Verify compatibility with your specific Glock 17 generation before installation. Always use thread protector when muzzle devices are not attached. Ensure proper fitment and function testing. Ensure compliance with all applicable laws.
