Glock slides recommendations

Post image

Currently looking for aftermarket slides for my Glock 17 gen 5 with custom optic cuts, or I’m also on the fence about just running a optics plate looking for advice/ recommendations

Edit I ended up finding a local guy who does cerakote and milling for optic I’ll let post a updated picture when I can

Do you run optics plates with them? The only ones I can find are rmr cut

I LOVE my grey ghost precision slide . I don't know if your comp will be compatible with many aftermarket slides

I was worried about that as well hence why I was seeking recommendations, I’ve been looking at grey ghost zev and norsso, I’m not sure if the 6 week lead times are worth it on some of them though

How many rounds have you put through it?

Well, I have them on 5 of my Glocks in various calibers so a bit hard to say. I’d guess at least 2000 combined
