    Default Glock Slide

    Is it possible to get a Glock 19 slide and put it on my 17 frame? I'm wanting to add a red dot, if possible.

    Not without modifications. The lock up length is different between a 17 & 19.

    But Glock has been nice enough to do it for you in the G45, essentially a 17 frame with a front serrated 19 length slide.

    Companies such as ZEV may offer the components already modified to do such however, cant say for sure.

    Isn't the Glock 19X the same as a Glock 45?

    Short answer? No.

    Long answer? Sell your G17 and buy a G19X.

    Red dot? Take said 19X slide and have it RMR cut.

    If you had a 3rd gen 19 i have a rmr cut slide i'd be happy to do something with towards a standard slide. Not a fan of RDS on hand guns.

    I’m saving my pennies for the 43 slide and 17 frame.

    No. The 19X is tan.

    That is the preferred solution among this group.
