I'm 200+/- rounds with a Vickers Extended Slide Release from a 43 without any issue. I'll continue to try it out before I make a decision if it works in my gun.
What wasn't functioning?
I installed my 43 Vickers Slide Stop (not yet live fired) and it performed in locking back on an empty magazine. It locked back when manually activated and released when...
I also got in for 4, they were showing in stock at the time. I'll keep this updated as the order moves along.
Now if I could only wrap my head around G48 aftermarket sight compatibility....

My G43 Vickers/TD Extended slide stop fit and functioned correctly during dry fire. Locks slide back upon empty mag and activation. Drops slide on press. Live fire testing to be done soon.
My...
I can confirm that my G43 SSVI Tyr Trigger fits and functions in my 48.
So what's the consensus on aftermarket sights?
43/42 sights?
Something else?
Awesome. Will you post here when they are up?
Thanks for the help, pal.
It's not so much that I'm concerned about "upgrades" - I prefer the shape and feel of the "shoe" of the TYR. It's the same setup that I have on the 3 other glocks I...
So the dude from SSVI doesn't know if the 43 TYR trigger would fit. His response was "it looks like it, maybe."
Do any of you guys know? I'm trying to get my ducks in a row.
Also any news...
The next question I have is will it require other new aftermarket accessories specific to the 43X/48 Frame?
Mag Release?
Slide Release?
Trigger?
What about aftermarket sights?

Here's a less potato-ey picture. The angle makes it seem like the front of the magazine base pad is touching the grip. It is not, there's probably 1/16" gap.
You can, but it doesn't have the same reaction to the stippling tip. The acraglass wasn't stippled on the bottom of the grip, as I purposely left that part of the grip (slug plug area) long. The...
Here's a few.
When I started cutting the backstop a bit higher in the rear, it was exposing the opening of the back of the grip where the grip plug goes. 13738
It may be more apparent here,...

Does it conceal better than a 17? I'm not sure, I didn't knock off that much length from the grip. What I did do, is epoxied and formed a bobtail to break up the rough edge of the magazine....
I'm not sure you can put a magwell on because of the new shape of grip - and if you do, it may not be a great fit.
Ron helped Craig at AMIS in Pittsburgh earlier this spring. Craig mentioned he was going to start teaching. I'm excited to have a name of a company now. I'll be on the lookout for his courses for...
Welcome! What do you know about the front seat of a Chevy Cavalier? I know Germans don't play around.
Absolutely.
Dude, thats a PERFECT visual explanation of that.
For whatever reason, I was thinking that if you were leaving that HK style tail, you'd literally only chop off the length of the mag plate. I...
