Rival Arms, manufacturer of precision handgun components for firearm enthusiasts, has announced the availability of its precision slides for select GLOCK® pistols through distributors and local firearms dealers.

Each Rival Arms slide is intricately machined from a 17-4PH stainless-steel billet for maximum durability and corrosion-resistance. Integrated into the design are aggressive front and rear\ serrations for positive slide manipulation under high-stress or competitive situations. Precision cutouts redistribute weight and promote more efficient cooling of the barrel. In addition to the stainless-steel construction, each slide is thermo-chemically case-hardened to further resist wear.

Rival Arms slides with optic cuts are available in two versions — one that accept all Trijicon® RMR™ profile optics, and another than fits other popular brands including TRUGLO®, EOTech®, Doctor USA®, Insight®, Meopta®, Vortex® and similar profile optics. In addition, a slide without an optic cut is offered for the subcompact GLOCK® 43. Rival Arms precision upgrade slides are available for 3rd and 4th Gen GLOCK® 17, 19, 26, and 43 pistols. Slides for the 3rd and 4th Gen GLOCK® 34 with be shipping this summer. These upgrade slides can be installed easily by the consumer with no advanced gunsmith work required. All Rival Arms slides come with a limited lifetime warranty.
