Poor Fit

The slide has a small horizontal ridge near the front of the area. The cover does not have a corresponding valley, so there is a small gap at the front. It is not horrible, but I expected a perfect fit.

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.

Fits but doesn't match Brownells slide

Cover plate seems to fit correctly & basic shape looks like it belongs but the color is way off to look like it belongs on the Brownells window G-19 slide. (not even close color wise) The color discrepancy detracts from it's intended use but it does fit correctly & function as intended. I probably wouldn't have bought it if I knew the color match was this far off. For the amount of money I paid it should have been a closer color match.

It's Okay I guess

First off the finish is not anodized, which for the price it should be. I know this because when it arrived in and oversized plastic tube measuring 1-3/4" x 5" with no protection, the finish on the screw bosses were wore down to the shiny aluminum. If it was at least cover with masking tape it would not have wore the paint off by bouncing around in the tube during shipping. The shiny painted finish does contrast the great Nitride finish of the Brownells slide, so there's that too. It matches the slide cuts so there's a plus. So overall too much money for what you get IMHO. If it was a a steel nitride finish that was shipped properly I'd give it 5-stars.

No Screws

Slide Plate looks solid but be advised screws are NOT included. Description can be misleading.
