Very good
I have had this slide on two G19 frames. The fit is excellent on the frame and the RMR cut works perfectly. My only complaint is a small smudge on the finish on the left slide, but hey, who’s looking. I would definitely buy another one if I needed it.

Professional Grade
I purchased this slide for my Trijicon dot. I am no gunsmith and I have only limited speak in firearms, but I can research and purchased this slide for my build. First and foremost, the hand feel of the Nitride finished slide is smooth and the serrations grip are all you need to rack it - aggressive but comfortable. When I went to build it, my gunsmith showed me milled and other slides where the screws broke or were too shallow to lock tight … he had 3 when I arrived. This project went together like every part was made for the other. The dot and sights went right in, the recommended slide kit came with the firing pin made from billet to improve the strength. The extractor depressor plunger and firing pin safety are machined from bar stock. Includes channel liner tool which SLID in (no forcing it). I have 1k rounds through it, the dot is spot on, the RMR sits firm and I am headed to the range. The finish of this product is thee difference, what stood out when I bought: the mounting screws have a raised female screw adapter - screws down tight and locks tight during the movement of the action.
This is awesome!
First time buying this slide and it looks awesome on my G19. I also purchased a Holosun EPS MRS optic to match with this slide. The mounting plate supplied by Holosun fits exactly but the Zev posts are too tall and screws are sticking out. I ordered another plate from Brownells that I hope would be the right fit. Can’t wait to receive it and try the pistol out at the range for zeroing. Thanks
Amazing purchase for the price
the slide is amazing, I'm very happy with it. It has reignited my interest in my G-19 which was dwindling. It great price too. the holo sun 407 x2 I used fit the RMR cut perfectly.
