HERA Arms slide release?

[andysmith]

Just wanting to check if anyone is aware if there is an extended slide release available anywhere for a glock 17 (KSC)?
I got a HERA arms carbine kit,l and the one downside to it is that the slide release is very hard to get at, only having about a milimeter gap above it, so it's almost impossible to get at with your thumb.

Basically, if you know of one, let me know! or if you know a workaround for the HERA Arms kit, let me know too!

it was a bit tricky to get to for my KWA...but what i did was bend it out a few mms,and its fine now...im using an 18c...and what really wanted was an extension for the auto/single selector

Re: HERA Arms slide release?

think I might have managed to sort it, bit of a botch job, but I used stuff called fix it putty, essentially molding cement, and used that to make a sort of angular shape towards the bottom of the slide release, which is now rock solid, and easy to slide with the thump, in a similar manner to the extended ones, but a bit larger.

Will take a few pics for tomorrow in case anyone else is interested :P
