    Just got my extended control kit for my g45 yesterday in blue after about a year on backorder. I was surprised and pleased. I'm taking it to my gunsmith to install, I don't feel confident to try it myself. I also have a magazine release in blue I wanted to install but my gunsmith talked me out of it because the part is aluminum and he says the metal release will damage the polymer magazine.

    ?🤨 all this time I just grab the back of the slide, pull back, and release. Get full force of the whole recoil spring for chambering.
    I mean it is called a slide stop, not a slide release.
    And I'm stuck in commiefornia limited to gen 3....

    I think the extended slide stop is easier to be stuck on ur cloths or something when making a draw, and in a combat, life or death scenario, and wouldnt want that risk. Hence, i dont think this upgrade is worth it.
