Glock 42 Slide Stop Lever with Spring

Glock G42 Slide Stop Lever

This is the factory Glock slide stop lever for the G42, supplied with its spring. The slide stop holds the slide open after the last round in the magazine and lets you release it again with your thumb. It is a direct replacement if the original lever is worn, bent or lost, and a sensible spare for G42 owners who carry the pistol daily or rebuild it themselves.

Features

• Genuine Glock OEM Part — OEM means original equipment manufacturer, so this is the same part Glock fits to the G42 at the factory.
• Made For The G42 — The lever is shaped for the G42 frame and slide and is not intended for other Glock models.
• Spring Included — The coil spring that tensions the lever comes attached at the rear, so you are not hunting for a separate part.
• Grooved Thumb Tab — Horizontal grooves across the tab give your thumb purchase when dropping the slide.
• Slim Steel Lever — A flat, dark-finished metal arm keeps the profile low along the side of the frame.
• Pivot Hole — The round hole at the rear is where the lever pivots inside the frame, matching the factory geometry.
• Locks The Slide Open — When the magazine runs empty, the lever engages the slide and holds it back so you can see the gun is unloaded.

Fit And Installation

Because this is Glock's own part, it fits the G42 the way the original did, with no filing or fitting. It installs in the frame during normal disassembly of the lower parts. If you have not stripped a Glock frame before, a gunsmith can swap it in a few minutes. Always function check the pistol with an empty magazine after installation.
