Description
Built and function-tested in our Florida shop. Starting with a Live Free Armory (Melbourne, FL) Black Cerakote Elite stripped slide blank for Glock 23 Gen 1-3 chambered in .40 S&W, we install the nitride barrel, tall polymer sights, and 3CR Tactical internals before each unit ships. Drops onto any compatible Glock 23 frame — no fitting required.
