The Wilson Combat .45 ACP Slide Stop in stainless steel is a precision handgun part designed for shooters who demand reliable, last-round lockback and tight slide engagement. Built to the specifications preferred by combat shooters, this standard-length slide stop replaces the factory component with a part engineered for durability and consistent performance on the range or in practical shooting applications.
Machined from hardened, heat-treated steel and finished in stainless, this slide stop features precision-engineered pin and lip engagement surfaces. That precision translates to positive slide lock-open when you reach the final round in the magazine—a feature that matters whether you're running drills, competing, or maintaining your sidearm.
