Gen5 frame/lower has ambi slide release lever - no cut out on the Gen4 slide for that. I'd imagine that would lead to effectively having no slide release levers...

It will as long as you have a G5 backplate on the slide.Quote:

Just want to confirm, a G17.4 slide will work on a G17.5 frame if you use G4 internals and a G5 backplate?
As noted you need a G5 back plate.Quote:

One of my long term projects is to put a KKM comped 23.4 slide on a G45 frame.
Great. Thanks.Quote:

I also have a gen4 glock23 slide and was thinking of just swaping the gen4 19 slide (with gen5 backplate) on the gen5 frame and the gen4 23 slide on the gen4 19 frame because reasons.
