The Tyrant CNC Gold Extended Slide Release (brand part number TD-GSTOP-48-GOLD) upgrades the factory slide stop on the Glock 42, 43, 43X, and 48 with a genuinely CNC-machined aftermarket lever. Tyrant CNC built it as the first CNC-machined extended slide release for this single-stack Glock family, replacing the factory stamped part with a piece that’s easier to find and actuate under pressure. Machined from 6061 aluminum and finished in hard-coat anodized gold, it drops straight into place with no gunsmithing. It’s a clean, confidence-building upgrade for shooters who carry or compete with a Glock 42/43/43X/48.
