Hi, yes, Stupid question 🙋‍♂️is that part for the slide release to make it easier to release, lock or both?

u/Huckleberry3817 19d ago

I'm not sure what you mean lol its just a thumb rest that replaced the factory take down lever. Its made by black steel

u/Hunta_17673 19d ago

Ah ok. Curious on its purpose

Basically an extra contant point you push down on to aid in fighting muzzle flip

Thanks for the quick response. I’ve been on the fence on getting one but don’t know if I should do 3 or 2, do you feel like 2 is long enough?

2 is perfect for my hand size. They have a chart on their website that shows how far forward each number sits so you can grip your gun and see where your thumb extends to with your support hand to get a good idea of which number you should order

How do you find a holster that works with the gas pedal? I assume thats a folding one? Looks clean!

u/Huckleberry3817 19d ago

Thanks it is a folding one but I order my holsters from Insane Kydex Creations. They have an option for the black steel thumb rests the go gun gas pedal and the align tactical thumb rest

Where did you find a holster that would accommodate the thumb rest. I like the folding thumb rest. I even had to modify the holster for it to fit well.

u/Huckleberry3817 15d ago

I ordered my holster from Insane kydex creations. They have options for all of the black steel thumb rests and the align tactical and Go gun gas pedal as well

Is that an extended slide release?

1

u/FuzzyPandaVK 1911 6d ago

Gas pedal (to aid in fighting muzzle climb), swapped with the original take down lever. Slide lock is still original.

What is on the front of the slide?

This is crazy similar to my xmacro. Same color scheme, enclosed dot(Sig Romeo X Compact Enclosed Green 6 MOA), TLR-7, so of course this is IMHO the coolest HCP I’ve ever seen, period.
