The Vickers Tactical VTSS-003 is an enhanced, ambidextrous slide stop designed by TangoDown for Gen5 Glock pistols. It is engineered to provide a more positive surface for slide lock and release compared to the factory part, especially when wearing gloves or operating under stress.
Key Specifications
- Material: Precision stamped from 4130 chrome moly steel and heat-treated.
- Finish: Non-glare, durable black hard coat finish.
- Design: Features a reshaped thumb pad with deep serrations for increased traction without being oversized or snag-prone.
- Dimensions: Overall length of 1.64 inches.
- Weight: approximately 0.8 oz.
- Origin: Made in the USA.
Compatibility
The VTSS-003 is specifically for Glock Gen5 models. It is compatible with the following calibers and models:
- 9x19mm: G17, G19, G19X, G26, G34, G45, G47, G48, G49.
- 40 S&W: G22, G23, G27, G35.
- 22 LR: G44
- .357 SIG: G31
Note: For .45 ACP and 10mm Gen5 models (like the G20 or G21), the VTSS-005 is the correct model. For the G43X and G48, while some lists include them, the dedicated VTSS-004 is often recommended.
Installation
Professional gunsmith installation is recommended by the manufacturer. As an aftermarket part, it is not a Glock factory product, but it is designed to drop into the Gen5 ambidextrous frame assembly.
