Your Questions Answered
Does this slide include an optics cover plate?
No, it does not include a cover plate. The slide is shipped ready for optic mounting. If you plan to run iron sights only, you will need to source an RMSc footprint cover plate separately.
Will my factory Glock 43X barrel and recoil spring work?
Yes. This slide is designed to use your existing OEM Glock 43X or 48 barrel and recoil spring assembly (RSA). It is a direct replacement for your factory slide.
Is the finish durable?
The PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coating is significantly harder and more wear-resistant than traditional Cerakote. It provides excellent protection against holster wear and corrosion, though any finish can show marks with heavy use.
