Threaded Barrel and Suppressor Ready Design
The 1/2x28 threaded barrel is the standout feature here. This thread pitch is industry standard for 9mm suppressors, meaning you can mount most commercial suppressor options without adapters. The polished stainless finish resists corrosion while the threading allows you to run either suppressed or unsuppressed depending on your needs. This flexibility matters because it lets you build one slide that adapts to different shooting scenarios.
Burnt Bronze Cerakote Finish and Durability
The burnt bronze Cerakote finish on the 416R stainless steel slide provides both visual distinction and protective coating. Cerakote finishes resist wear, corrosion, and fingerprints better than standard bluing. The burnt bronze color sits between traditional black and lighter finishes, giving you a modern look without sacrificing visibility of the slide serrations. The finish is applied to quality stainless steel, which means the underlying material also resists corrosion independently.
RMR Cut and Optics Compatibility
The RMR optic cut is milled directly into the slide, eliminating the need for a separate mounting plate. This cut accepts Trijicon RMR optics and most RMR-pattern footprint red dots from other manufacturers. The included cover plate protects the cut when running iron sights only. Direct milling into the slide creates a lower-profile setup compared to rail-mounted optics, which improves sight picture and reduces bulk.
Gen 1-3 Compatibility and Lower Receiver Pairing
This slide is compatible with Glock 17 Gen 1, Gen 2, and Gen 3 lower receivers. It includes standard Glock sight cuts, meaning you can use factory iron sights or aftermarket options designed for Glock dovetails. The slide does not include a lower receiver, trigger assembly, or internal components. You'll need a compatible Gen 1-3 Glock 17 lower receiver to complete the firearm.
Follow safe handling and manufacturer instructions. Ensure compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws. This is a slide assembly only. Lower receiver not included.
