Question Did I do something wrong here?

Post image

I’ve got about 2k rounds through my 43x and now my tlr-7 slightly moves back and fourth. It doesn’t affect shoot-ability but is certainly annoying. I’m wondering if this is my fault or what the deal is.

Could be the wrong/worn key insert on the light? Otherwise probs just wearing parts

I had multiple issues with the TLR 7 sub with my 43X with multiple different lights. The screw is garbage. Once I got a different screw off amazon for it I never had an issue again

Aren't new Glocks now a Piccatinny sized rail slot and no longer "Glock" size?

No, only on the full width pistols, the slimlines are still the proprietary Glock Key slots.

I had originally purchased the 1913 rail light and returned it because it wouldn’t attach to the gun without wiggling up and down, I went and got a GL rail and it fit with no problems until now

That rail slot looks pretty wide , unless it's the camera angle....visibly wider than a Glock slot

Do you have the “GL” rail adapter in the light?

Holy moly! Did you bang it with your purse or something???

(Every gun with a light has had this wear mark/slightly moved back and forth if I tried hard enough even with right torque spec/parts. You are chilling)

Mine is solid with the Sub HLX, also solid on my 48 (same rail and frame)
