What is the TANGODOWN - Enhanced Slide Stop for Glock 48 and 43X?

Small pistols can present big problems under stress reloads. On top of limited magazine capacity, undersized controls can hamper-or even prevent-a proper reload. The stakes are clear in that event. Don't run the risk….install a Vickers Tactical Slide Stop. It features the same positive V-shape with deep serrations that enables fast manipulation, in both directions, found on the original VT Slide Stop. A huge improvement to the Glock® 48 and 43X.

Fits Glock® Model 48 and 43X. Has a stronger spring to handle the extra slide mass of the G48 slide. Reshaped thumb pad with deep serrations, allows easy slide lock and release, even with gloves. Precision stamped from 4130 chrome moly steel, with non-glare black finish.

works great

I have put these on several of my carry guns, they accomplish the function I want while being minimally obtrusive or gaudy.

Makes the Slimline 43X & 48 even slimmer

OEM part works but this works better. It's all about the top bump and the curve in; allows you positively activate when necessary and doesn't get hooked on clothing or anything else. I like these so much, ALL of my Glocks have them!!

Great product with a minor flaw

The only flaw is that when I use my Tipton snap caps, the slide is held open with one round left in the magazine, this happens on my 3x shield (gen 2) 15 round magazines, as well as my 4x OEM mags. When using my A-ZOOM snap caps, 115 gr blazer brass, or my federal hst 124 gr carry ammo, it works flawlessly. I suspect this issue is due to the small dimensional changes between this product and the OEM Slide stop. Seems that if the last round is not heavy enough, it pushes the slide stop up just enough to engage it with the slide. Unfortunately for us consumers, it seems this dimensional change is present in all after-market extended slide stops. But fortunately (for me at least) this product works with any ammo I may actually wish to train with and carry..

It works for me!

I wanted a extended that looked somewhat like a stock slide release. I tried this one despite some of the other reviews that said they had slide lock on the last shot. I bought two, as I own a 43x & g48. These work fine as I have not experienced any problems as others have mentioned. I have shot both glocks with no problems at around 500 rds each, so far so good.
