Compatible Glock Models
This rear slide cover plate fits Glock models G43, G43x and G48. It is machined from aircraft-grade T6 aluminium with an Olive Drab anodized hard-coat finish. The part replaces the factory plastic component and features laser-engraved artwork that is not painted. Installation is quick and requires no special tools.
Polymer Factory Part Limitations
The original plastic cover plate can crack or deform under repeated slide cycling and heat exposure. A polymer part also lacks the surface hardness to resist abrasion from holster wear or cleaning solvents. The aluminium construction eliminates those failure points while maintaining the same dimensions for drop-in fitment.
Upgrade From Standard Cover Plate
This plate upgrades any compatible Glock that still uses the factory polymer cover. The jump is worth it when the original part shows stress marks, when a harder finish is needed for duty or competition holsters, or when a durable, non-painted graphic is preferred. It does not fit G42, G43, G43X or G48 models listed as excluded in the manufacturer data.

Questions about this item
Which Glock models does this rear slide cover plate fit?
This cover plate is compatible with Glock models G17, G19, G21, G22, G23, G24, G26, G27, G29, G30, G31, G32, G33, G34, G35, G36, G37, G38, G39, G40, G41, and G45 in Gen 1-4 configurations. It does not fit G42, G43, G43X, or G48.
What does the aircraft-grade T6 aluminum construction mean for daily carry?
The billet-machined T6 aluminum with hard-coat anodizing replaces the factory plastic plate, giving a much harder wearing surface that resists deformation and finish wear under repeated holstering and slide manipulation.
How does the laser-engraved artwork hold up compared to painted designs?
The ultra-high-resolution laser engraving cuts into the anodized layer rather than sitting on top, so the "No Step On Snek" artwork will not chip, flake, or fade like paint can over time.
