Timber Creek Outdoors GLMCPR Glock 17/19 Slide Cover Plate Red
The Timber Creek Outdoors GLMCPR is a red slide cover plate designed for Glock 17 and Glock 19 pistols. It's a straightforward way to customize the look of your carry gun or range shooter while protecting the rear of the slide. Whether you're building a truck gun, a duty backup, or just want to add a pop of color to your EDC, a quality cover plate is a small upgrade that gets noticed.
Slide cover plates serve a practical purpose beyond aesthetics—they shield the back of your slide from wear, debris, and holster friction during draw and reholster. The Timber Creek design fits Glock's standard recoil lug area and installs without gunsmithing or modifications. Red anodizing gives it a finished, professional appearance that complements either tactical or sport builds.
Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable handling their pistol. If you're new to Glock accessories, we recommend checking your manual or watching a quick how-to video to confirm proper fitment. Timber Creek is known for solid polymer and aluminum parts, and this cover plate is no exception—it'll hold up to regular use and cleaning without chipping or fading.
If you shoot Glock 17 or 19 regularly and want to personalize your gun without breaking the bank, this is an easy addition to your parts drawer. Pair it with other Timber Creek accessories to build a cohesive look, or keep it as a one-off upgrade.
