View Full Version : slide question
I am thinking about getting a 17L but due to its rarity I will probably settle for a G34. One thing I don't like about the G34 is the open top on the slide, can I get a solid one? Also is the 17L open top also?

Both have the cutout.

The cutout is for weight reduction on the slide. It helps balance the gun, but more importantly it lets the slide cycle how it should. It is necessary since they both use G17 recoil springs.

Some aftermarket slides don't have the cutout. But then you're forking over another $300+.
