What Metal is Used for Glock Slides?

Your Glock slide is made of tough stainless steel. Here at ShaloTek we use 4140 Heat Treated Stainless Steel. It's designed to be durable, so you can put away your worries and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing this valuable firearm has been built for longevity.

Modifications

There is a vast and open market for modded slides. At ShaloTek, we offer many different styles for Glock slides. "We design our slide cuts to make them stand out visually and increase performance," said Travis Brewer. Ensuring the best quality for our customers is a priority, which is why we use top-of-the-line HAAS machines to cut out our performance-driven slides.

Quality is a Must

When venturing out into the aftermarket side of Glock or Sig, it is essential to keep an eye on the quality of the product, especially the slide. The best companies advertise what their slide is made of to instill confidence in overall quality. While the original slide made by Glock is high quality, other slides could outperform the one you have now.
