50% and grey ghost just don’t care - Grey Ghost Precision Glock Version 3 Pistol Slide w/ RMR-DP Pro Cut

In the nature of full disclosure I have two Grey Ghost slides with the other being for a gen 4 17. The are complete opposites. The slide for the factory Glock 17 frame ran perfectly from the beginning and fits the gen 4 frame nicely. It has been fired suppressed and unsupressed and it doesn’t matter, the pistol just runs.

The slide for the 19 gen 4 is a complete hot mess. It was sort of reliable the first time out and that was the best it ever got. It would appear the trigger bar (Glock factory) was rubbing against the bottom of the slide which preventing the slide from going fully into battery without assistance. I was determined to get it to the point where it was reliable but was not successful even after extensive polishing of the trigger bar. This was one I should have returned to Optics Planet right away but did not as I was somewhat determined to get it up and running and I kept it past the point where I thought it was eligible for return (I have done one previous return with Optics Planet which went rather smoothly).

I did contact Grey Ghost directly via email but they appear to be too disinterested to reply. I eventually just sent the factory slide out to get milled for an optic and have had no issues with it at all.

In summary with a sample size of two it is my experience that Grey Ghost slides either run perfectly out of the box or they don’t run well at all. I am still very pleased with the generation 4 17 slide and have run it with three different brands of barrels. My advice is if you buy one of their slides and it doesn’t run well out of the box just return it immediately and move on.
