Pewpew72's Review of Matrix Arms Alpha Glock 19 Gen 3 Pistol Slide

I have not tested this yet as I wish to speak to opticsplanet.com to see why I was sent the wrong color slide and if they can exchange it. I will come back and update after that. As for the side itself, it's almost more bronze than rainbow. It is an interesting color. It's not a bad color. It's actually something is consider if it was what I ordered, but I am a Master Gunsmith and this is NOT the slide my client wanted. I did present it to them and they did agree it is an interesting color. I've never seen the like. It's quite unique. I have seen Rainbow slides (created by heating metal to different temperatures thereby producing different colors. They're unique, but I'm not a huge fan. This slide, however, it's something I would probably have kept if ordering for myself and not a client. Now, as for the quality of the slide. It is well cut, within Glock specifications and contains mostly parts that are if equal if not better quality than glock, minus a couple of very minor items that are not noteworthy. It has a unique indentation just forward of the ejector chamber on both sides that creates a PERFECT place to grasp the slide and rack it. I'm VERY impressed by the cuts on the slide. Again I wish so badly that they had sent me FDE. I would have had one extremely satisfied client. More to come when I see what opticsplanet.com can do for me to correct the wrong color situation. I have always had EXCELLENT dealings with opticsplanet.com, so I do not expect there to be any problems whatsoever getting this resolved. I put this, just in case, I forget to come back and update this. In my advanced age, I often forget minor things such as correcting a review. So, on that note if you don't see an edit on this there are 2 things you should know about this slide and opticsplanet.com: 1) This slide would make a beautiful and functional addition to ANY firearms collection and I see NO REASON AT ALL that you shouldn't purchase this if you're looking at this slide. You won't be disappointed. And, 2) opticsplanet.com is a fantastic company who has always taken care of me in the past. I would not hesitate to do business with this website/ company for this slide. You will be glad you did.
