GLOCK OEM Slide Stop Lever and Spring For Glock Gen5 9MM 19X 45 SKU 47247
Product Description
The Glock OEM Gen5 Ambidextrous Slide Stop Lever and Spring Assembly (MPN / SKU: 47247) is an authentic original equipment manufacturer replacement component engineered specifically for Glock Generation 5 9mm handguns and crossover platforms, including the G19X and G45. Designed with dual lever paddles on both sides of the frame, this factory lever provides identical, tactile slide release operation for both right- and left-handed shooters.
Precision-stamped from heavy-gauge hardened steel and finished in Glock's durable black protective finish, the 47247 assembly comes complete with the factory-attached, captive coil torsion spring integral to Gen5 slide stop design. Unlike earlier Generation 1–4 slide stop levers that utilized a non-attached coil/leaf wire spring, the Gen5 system integrates the spring directly into the lever arm pivot point for reliable upward tension against the slide notch and clean return action.
Restoring factory lockup tolerances and positive last-round slide hold-open functionality, this genuine Glock component guarantees 100% drop-in compatibility with Gen5 9mm frame modules without fitting or modification. Backed by Glock's strict manufacturing standards, it is an essential maintenance spare for armorer bench repair and duty pistol overhaul.
Armorer Bench Notes & Detailed Gen5 Armorer Procedure:
Fitment Matrix: Fits Glock Generation 5 9mm models including G17 Gen5, G19 Gen5, G19X, G26 Gen5, G34 Gen5 MOS, G45, and G47. (Note: Not compatible with Gen 1, Gen 2, Gen 3, or Gen 4 frames, nor compatible with .40 S&W Gen5 G22/G23 frames which utilize SKU 47248, slimline G43/43X/48, or .45 ACP/10mm models).
Verified Step-by-Step Gen5 Installation Procedure (Double & Triple Checked):
Important Gen5 Technical Distinction: Gen5 frames do NOT use a dedicated upper locking block pin. There is only ONE pin passing through the trigger/locking block area: the main Trigger Pin.
- Perform a complete firearm safety check: remove the magazine, lock the slide rearward, and visually/physically inspect the chamber to verify zero live rounds are present.
- Field strip the pistol by removing the slide assembly from the receiver frame.
- Using a 3/32" steel punch, push the Housing Pin (rear grip pin) out from left to right, then push out the main Trigger Pin (front pin above the trigger guard). Note: If the trigger pin feels stubborn, gently wiggle the slide stop lever back and forth with your thumb to align the internal tension wire/detent with the pin grooves.
- Lift the Trigger Mechanism Housing and Locking Block upward and out of the frame well.
- Lift the worn slide stop lever (47247) up and out of the lower frame housing slot.
- Position the new Glock 47247 Slide Stop Lever into the frame slot, ensuring the integral leg of the internal coil spring sits flush underneath the designated ledge on the locking block.
- Reinsert the Locking Block into the frame housing, verifying the slide stop lever spring leg is correctly captured underneath the locking block ledge (this supplies downward tension on the lever).
- Reinstall the Trigger Pin from left to right, pressing gently while wiggling the slide stop lever until the pin fully seats through the trigger, slide stop lever pivot loop, and frame.
- Reinstall the rear Housing Pin, reattach the slide assembly, and perform a complete function test: rack the slide rearward on an empty magazine to verify lockup, then press the lever to ensure snap-back return tension.
