GS Extended Precision Slide Lock

I wish I had bought this twenty years ago. It is like a gift from the gods. Makes breakdown so much easier for me I can't believe it. Does not stick out on sides like you might think either.

Great for my old fingers now they work with this Slide Lock for sure.
Taking my gun apart is very easy now.A must have for old big fat fingers like mine.

This inexpensive upgrade works as advertised, and I can't recommend it enough if you have any issue with takedown dexterity. Just make sure to secure the capture spring when installing the lock or you will spend the next 90 minutes looking for the escaped spring as I did.

A+ easy upgrade!

Absolutely the first thing you should do to your Glock! It still has pretty sharp corners, so if you have tender or sensitive skin you may experience a little discomfort on your finger tips. However, well worth the little bit of money it cost. Take down is a breeze!

I had trouble removing the slide from my gen 4 Glock 26 & 17. The extended slide lock makes it so much easier. Watch the Glockstore video for an easy installation.

What a great upgrade for very little money and very little time! It's everything Lenny states it is on the video! Works great! Looks great! A+

Takedown wasn't really an issue for me but there is a noticeable difference with the Extended Precision Slide Lock, makes it really easy now. The stamped part seems like good quality over the factory. Took a minute or less each to install on my G21 & G22. Didn't have any issue with spring coming out on either gun like 1 review, but kept hand over spring just in case. Mainly got it for the accuracy improvement for the price. Ordered on Tues. & got here following Mon. Very satisfied customer.

I own a Gen 1 Glock 17. I wish I would have installed this when I first bought my gun. Such a pain dealing with the little stock slide lock. Installing the new slide lock took all of 5 minutes. For the price, ease of installing and how much it improves the gun I would say this is one of the first upgrades you should do.

I received and installed it and then realized how sharp the serrated edges were. I removed it and took a fine file to round all the sharp edges.

I am new to guns and the G23 is my first. I almost couldn't take the gun apart because I couldn't get hold of the release. I bought this. It was easy to install using only the video uploaded by GlockStore. I can now easily release the slide. My only complaint is it is very sharp and hurts the fingers. I am not (at this point) a competition or sport shooter, I got my Glock for home defense. It would tear up my fingers if I had to release it a lot.

I am so excited with my purchase of the extended slide lock! Now I can remove the slide with ease on my first attempt, where prior to installing it, it would take me 3 or 4 attempts to get the slide off. Thanks to the video, the installation is so easy, even a caveman can do it !!

Yes the edges are sharp but that's why I bought it and makes it so much easier to pull down. Is thicker also fills out slot perfectly makes pistol feel tighter when engaged, A1 machining, very pleased with purchase, good price. I'm buying another today.

Purchased a new Glock 29 a few weeks ago. The stock slide lock was nearly flush on each side and disassembly was very difficult. I couldn't hold the slide lock down on both sides because not enough of it protruded outward. Order the extended precision slide lock and once it arrived I watched Lenny's video one time and replaced mine within few minutes thereafter. Now I can remove the upper portion of the 29 in seconds compared to all the difficulty I had previously. I highly recommend the extended slide lock especially if you can't hold the stock lock down on both sides. Replacing the OE lock is very easy.

I got one of these for my Gen4 and a second for my Gen5 Glock 19s (they are different parts, but I'll only write one review).

Highly recommended - the slight difference in length makes a huge difference in getting purchase to unlock and remove the slides. As an added bonus, the slightly raised and noticeably rougher end makes for a better memory spot for trigger-finger control.

Installation on my Gen4 was a 30-second breeze.

Installation on my Gen5 was a bit more work. That little spring that tensions the slide lock on the Gen5s is the devil. Twice it flew out on me. The first time it happened to land in a spot that was naturally illuminated in such a way that the spring stood out against the background and I found it easily. The second time I could not find it and I thought I had lost it - until I realized that it had flown straight up my left nostril (true story) and I was able to recover it from there.

Makes takedown 100% easier. Great purchase.

I have a bad hand, so I decided to give the Precision Extended Slide Lock a try. A great decision. Perfect part, easy installation and makes takedown much easier for me. I will be putting this in all of my Glocks.
Thanks Glockstore for the fast shipping and service

I own 5 Glocks and have purchased the extended slide lock for each. It is a must have for me.

Size and fit is good in my 23, but the notches are too sharp. Would be 5/5 if more round like the factory part.

I spent more time looking for the spring on the floor when it popped out than to put in the part haha. Much better than the factory part so my fingers thank you. Edges are definitely sharper than the factory slide lock but at least for me not uncomfortable at all to use.

The edges are a little sharp but easy enough to deal with. The extended precision slide lock makes it so much easier to take the slide off my G30 and the product video made the change out very simple.

OK

Like several of the other reviews, I do like the design and it is a necessary item making takedown easier but the sharpness of the ends in very uncomfortable due to that sharpness. I did manage to make it a little more bearable by filing and grinding the edges.

The product is amazing and is just how it’s shown, simple to install and helps a lot with striping your Glock. My only gripe and I have seen this by others purchasers, the edges of it are too sharp for me. I found actually putting my stock one back in works better... at least till I can file down the edges.

Far better than I imagined! I always had such a hard time with the factory one. The edges are sharp, but I love that about it, and don't understand why some others don't like it. It doesn't extend too far at all. When I first installed it I thought it looked the same and was worried it wouldn't live up to expectations. I tried it out, and was immediately blow away because it EXCEEDED expectations. I was able to easily install it with Lenny's video.

A great addition, but, per other reviewers, I would recommend some minor mods before you install this one. The side serrations are quite sharp, so if you find this too hard on your fingers, it's very easy to use a fine file to round them off just a bit. Also, the center groove on the bottom is to engage the slide lock spring. This groove is machined to very tight tolerances, so I would remove your spring first, test fit into the groove to be sure it fits flush. I had to use a medium diamond file to widen it several thousandths in order for the spring to fit. It's alot easier to do this BEFORE you install the new slide lock. If the spring doesn't engage the groove just right, you'll have a helluva time getting it back out to do this mod. Overall, this is a good addition and greatly enhances ease of take down over the stock part. Also, per other reviewers, the extended slide lock gives a great place to stage that trigger finger.
