Your Questions Answered
Does this slide come with an internal parts kit?
No. This is a stripped slide. You will need to transfer your factory internal parts (firing pin, extractor, etc.) from your OEM slide or purchase a separate completion kit.
Will my Glock 43X holster still work?
In most cases, yes. The external dimensions match the factory profile. Holsters designed for the Glock 43X/48 with an optic cut will accommodate this slide. Always test fit for safety.
Is the optic cut compatible with other red dots?
The slide is milled specifically for the Shield RMSc footprint. This pattern also directly fits the Sig Romeo Zero and Holosun 407K/507K with the included adapter plate from those manufacturers.
