    Are you looking to buy a replacement slide with more aggressive slide cuts to make gripping easier? Theres a bunch of companies that make them BUT For cheap you can also get this slide assist from Midway that could help make things tolerable. If you scroll down they also have a video to show you how it works so dont sell that gun just yet!!!!

    Not quite what I was looking for .The grip adapter would be installed at back of slide where it would make more thickness to the racking of slide . TY

    Getting old is tough. Adding a red dot sight to a pistol helps with aiming for us old guys (young guys too) and it can be used to rack the slide.

    Range time and Highly recommend the Mountsplus for the slimmer Glock as a 43,43X or 48 .Makes a world of difference no pain at all racking slide !

    Another thing to possibly try is the Arachnigrip Slide Spider

    They were purchased by Talon Grips a while back

    I have one on my Glock 26.
