Good product

Good product packaged well and fits perfect on brownells slides

Fit my Glock 17 Slide Perfectly!

This cover fit perfectly on my Brownells G17 slide and matched well with color and texture. Since the slide came with screws I did not need to order them. This could be an issue if your slide did not ship with screws for the RMR cover.

Perfect fit for Window Cut + RMR slide

Perfect fit.

works as described.

As above, works as described. Waiting to get an optic for my two RMR slide guns. Mine each came with two sets of hardware, contrary to some other reviews.

Why no screws

Product works great, should come with screws.

RMR slide cover plate for Brownells slid

cover plate on slide. should be supplied with cover plate screws. fit was perfect. would of gave 5 stars if screws were supplied.

under cover

Fits well paint around the screw holes was worn should sell it with slide overall is good will use until I get optic

Good fitment

I bought to go with the brownells slide I got. Fitment is good. The anodizing appears matte and is darker than the slides nitride finish. It does the job but does not add any "bling" to the slide if that is what you are looking for.

Ok but color does not match brownells slides

Came knicked near the screw holes and the black finish on the cover is much darker and shinier than the brownells slide. They make it sound like its color matched but its not. Otherwise the fit is very good.

Does not fit BRN Premium Window Slide for Glock 17 GEN 1/3 with RMR Cut

I just bought this to fit on my new Brownells Premium Glock 17 Slide with the RMR cut. This will not fit because the slide has two posts at the front of the optic cut. This cover plate is completely flat and does not sit flush on the slide. This would work if there were no posts. Make sure the slide you are purchasing is flush cut.
