Slide cover plate for Glock 43, 43x, 48

This rear slide cover plate replaces the factory plastic component on Glock models 43, 43x and 48. Machined from aircraft grade T6 aluminium billet with a flat dark earth anodized hard coat, it adds a durable, laser engraved "No Step On Snek" design. The part installs quickly without tools and is offered in new condition.

Solid aluminium construction resists wear and heat

The mil spec T6 aluminium plate eliminates the flex and cracking common to the original polymer piece. Hard coat anodizing protects the surface from corrosion and abrasion during carry or range use. Laser engraving is not painted, so the artwork will not flake or fade under solvent cleaning or high round counts.

Direct drop in replacement for the factory plastic

Owners of Glock 43, 43x or 48 pistols can upgrade the rear slide cover in seconds with no gunsmithing required. The upgrade is worthwhile when the original part shows stress marks, when a harder wearing finish is desired, or when a personalized engraved plate is preferred. Not compatible with other Glock models such as the 17, 19, 26, 34 or 45.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Rowe Tactical GLK43-SP-FDE-NOSNK-LE rear slide cover plate on my Glock 43, and what step is often missed?

Remove the factory plastic plate by depressing the firing pin safety and sliding the cover forward; the step often missed is ensuring the firing pin spring cups are fully seated before sliding the new billet aluminum plate into place.

What maintenance or replacement will the FDE anodized hard coat and laser engraving on this cover plate need over time?

The FDE anodized hard coat and ultra-high-resolution laser engraving are extremely durable and do not wear off like paint; no refinishing or replacement of the finish is expected under normal use.

What is the first compatibility limit I will hit if I try to use this GLK43-SP-FDE-NOSNK-LE plate on a different Glock model?

This plate fits only Glock 43, 43X and 48; it is not compatible with models 17, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42 or 45.
