RMR CUT SLIDE FOR GLOCK® 19 GEN 4 Reviews & Ratings

Glock® pistols are used by individuals and agencies all over the world due to their reliable performance under pressure and in difficult conditions. The Brownells RMR Slide for Glock®19® Gen4 further improves the shooter's ability to operate the slide and aim accurately under those conditions. It features distinctive, wraparound front cocking serrations that aid in manipulating the slide to check the chamber or clear a jam. And we'll be honest: the serrations just look cool, too! The RMR Slide for Glock®19® Gen4 has a built-in mount for the popular Trijicon RMR red dot sight and certain Holosun sights (see list below), enabling shooters to get on-target faster and more easily than they can with standard pistol sights. But don't worry - it includes factory front and rear sight cuts for backup "iron" sights. (With an RMR installed, you will need to install suppressor-height iron sights for proper co-witnessing.) You can get your RMR Slide with a "window" cutout on top between the front serrations (so they don't wrap on this one) that enhances airflow to keep the barrel cooler - ideal for hard-working action competition pistols. Plus, if you have an upgraded barrel with a contrasting finish or fluting, spirals, "flames," or another unique exterior pattern, the window helps your gun stand out from the sea of matte black on the firing line.

Each RMR Slide for Gen4 Glock® 19 starts life as a billet of 17-4 stainless steel that is machined to Glock® factory specifications inside, so it’ll fit factory frames and accept factory or aftermarket barrels and Gen4 internal parts. The tough, non-reflective, Black Nitride finish resists surface scuffs and scratches. An RMR slide is an excellent upgrade for transforming your Glock® 19 from an excellent off-the-shelf pistol into to the best handgun you've ever shot! Brownells Gun Tech™ Note: Channel liner required for these slides. Channel liner is a press fit and requires a tool to install. We recommend #777-100-017.

Not an RMR cut as advertised

I tried 3 different optics, Holosun SCS, UTG, and a Vortex and none of these optics would fit into the cut on this slide. I can't be sure if this is a QC problem or just an error in product packaging.

light primer strikes galore

ever since installing this slide ive been getting light primer strikes, 16 across 100 rounds when i first took the gun out after installing this slide. After some diagnosing ive discovered the slide itself is the culprit, with rounds in the magazine as the slide comes forward it does not lock up all the way, i have to push on the back of the slide with my thumb.

Trijicon rmr doesnt fit

Returned since my RMR didnt fit the one they sent me.
