Anderson KIGER-9C PRO Complete G19 Slide RMR optic cut & ported for Glock 19
About this product
What is the Anderson KIGER-9C PRO Complete G19 Slide RMR optic cut & ported for Glock 19? It's a drop-in replacement slide system machined from 416 stainless steel with integrated RMR optic mounting and barrel porting for reduced muzzle rise. This is a complete slide assembly ready for immediate installation on any Gen 3-5 Glock 19 frame. Anderson Manufacturing built this for shooters who want optic-ready capability without sending their slide out for machining.
What is the Anderson KIGER-9C PRO slide used for?
This slide converts your standard Glock 19 into an optics-ready platform with improved recoil management. The ported barrel reduces muzzle flip by approximately 30% compared to non-ported barrels, while the RMR cut accepts Trijicon RMR/SRO footprints without adapter plates. I recommend pairing it with our Glock-Mod 3.5lb Connector for a complete performance upgrade.
How does the Anderson KIGER-9C PRO compare to the Polymer80 PF940SC slide?
The KIGER-9C PRO offers superior material quality with 416 stainless steel construction versus Polymer80's 4140 steel. While both accept RMR optics, the Anderson slide includes suppressor-height sights and porting as standard features, where Polymer80 charges extra for these upgrades. The Polymer80 slide weighs 14.8 oz compared to Anderson's 12 oz, making the KIGER-9C PRO better for carry applications.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The complete slide assembly weighs 12 ounces with all components installed. It measures 6.8 inches in length, 1.2 inches in width, and maintains the standard Glock 19 slide height profile of 1.3 inches. The barrel length remains factory-spec at 3.91 inches with a 1:10 twist rate for standard 9mm ammunition.
Who is this NOT for?
This slide isn't for shooters who want to maintain factory warranty coverage or those who prefer completely stock configurations. The porting creates louder report and increased muzzle flash, making it unsuitable for low-light tactical situations where flash concealment matters. If you need holster compatibility, verify fitment since ported slides often require custom holsters.
What's in the box?
You receive a complete slide assembly with DLC-coated barrel, recoil spring assembly, and suppressor-height steel sights pre-installed. The package includes all necessary components for immediate installation—no additional parts needed. Total component count is 4 pieces: slide, barrel, recoil spring, and sights.
Is the Anderson KIGER-9C PRO worth it at $269.99?
At $269.99, this slide delivers exceptional value compared to custom machining services that charge $200+ for optic cuts alone. You're getting a complete ready-to-run system with premium DLC coating that typically adds $80-100 to aftermarket slide prices. For the price of a basic optic cut elsewhere, you get a fully assembled performance upgrade that drops onto your existing frame in under 2 minutes.
