Slide parts Glock 17
They were perfect for my Glock 17 build.

Glock 17 Brownells slide and parts kit
The slide and the parts kits were great. They went together without a hitch and functioned well on the G34 lower, after a couple of rounds. I would buy the slide and the parts kits again if I were looking to build a Glock upper to put on a Glock lower.

Great product
After reading reviews on the Brownells Slide Parts kit for the Gen 3 Glock 17 and the economical price, I ordered this item for a current after market build. Comparing the individual parts to genuine Glock parts, the quality of the Brownells kit became very apparent. Installation was as expected and function is normal. With current availability, economical price and quality of the parts, the Brownells Glock 17 Slide Parts kit is a "no brainer"!!!

never been disappointed with Brownells
I'm pleased with the product after preinstall clean and polish works great. As with anything use the 5p rules and you'll like it.

Everything needed to finish my slide
The combined purchase of this kit with barrel and slide got me a high quality product for less than some bare slides cost.

Project kit
Got a fee more of these kits for builds. Have had good performance in the past and expect the same this round.

Just some additional input on my last tw
As I stated in my last two reviews, this is a great parts kit for the price point and I would like to add some more information. First I stated that the safety buttons are nice. They are. However they can be improved on by the user by chucking them up litely in a drill, ( spring cup in the Chuck ) and polishing the button side starting out with 600 grit wet dry, use a quality paper, and removing the remaining machining marks and slightly radiasing the top edge from its sharpness. Do not remove much material. Then use a 1200 grit to add more polishing then a 2000 grit. It will astound you how smooth and fine it comes out. You will then have equivalent of as Apex safety button. Do not polish the spring cup side. Next I stated that I tested the firing pin and spring on military small rifle primers with no hiccups. But I have discovered that I have a batch of them that left me with 8 out of a hundred lot that were real thick cups. Out of those 3 fired on the second try in a pistol with this kit but 5 did not, but they also would not fire or dent any deeper even in a pcc that can puncture thin rifle primers, and I double checked seating depth and it was dead on .0035 . This is first ever for this happening to my reloaded rounds. So be aware if you're forced to use these type of primers for reloading pistol rounds just trying to get some handgun time on the trigger fingers.
