Whats the best Glock aftermarket slide options, and MOS cuts?

[Celt]

Another thread got me thinking to start this one. So who is making the best aftermarket slides for glocks?

I see brownells has some nice ones for around $250, are they any good? Not that Im looking to buy one now, this is for a future potential plan. I dont think id spend over 350 on a slide when you can buy a whole gun for not too much more.

Another question is the cut outs for a MOS system, some cutouts leave not much material around the extractor and it looks like it could be a point of failure, has there been any issues with slides cracking near MOS cutouts due to being a weak point?

Even the factory glock MOS cut seems kinda close, what are everyones thoughts on this?

Buddy of mine runs a brownells on one of his p80 builds (and has something between 20-25,000 rounds) and has no issues with the slide. Was running with both an RMR and a 507c v1

Thats good to hear as the cut looks like it only leave a sliver of metal between the optic and extractor. Any chance you can get a close up photo of that interface? The website photo doesnt shownit too well.

I can ask if he still has it, he's sinced moved over to my old CZ P-07 that I sold him

No big deal, just curious. I can probably find it searching duckduckgo images..

Honestly (I'll always mention this option)

I think the best option on the market right now would be the Agency Arms AOS, they can do un cut slides or factory glock MOS slides.

It's a bit expensive and turn around time is not the best but it seems like a rock solid system and future proofs your slide which in the long run could save a bit of money

I just received a complete slide from Rock on Monday for my G19. They're running INCREDIBLY slow right now. Ordered April 7, received June 7. Haven't bad a chance to put it though its paces yet.
