ZAF ZPS3 CMP Ported Slide for Glock 17 Gen 3 BLK/BLK G17G3-ZPS3-TPBO-BLK-BLK (UPC 810220066539)
The ZAF ZPS3 CMP Ported Slide for Glock 17 Gen 3 BLK/BLK G17G3-ZPS3-TPBO-BLK-BLK (UPC 810220066539) is a high-performance aftermarket complete slide assembly featuring an integrated ported design. Manufactured by ZAF, this advanced slide is specifically engineered for the Glock 17 Gen 3 platform and delivers reduced muzzle rise, faster follow-up shots, and improved overall shootability. The “TPBO” designation indicates a ported (compensated) slide configuration, making this one of the most feature-rich complete slides available for Gen 3 Glock 17 pistols.
Combining the refined ZPS3 platform with a factory-ported slide, this complete assembly offers shooters a significant performance upgrade over standard Glock slides. Whether you compete in USPSA, IDPA, or simply want better recoil management for defensive or range use, the ZAF ZPS3 CMP Ported Slide provides noticeable improvements in control and speed. Finished in a durable Black on Black configuration, this slide delivers both performance and a sleek tactical appearance.
Integrated Ported Design for Reduced Recoil
The standout feature of the ZAF G17G3-ZPS3-TPBO-BLK-BLK is its ported slide design. Strategically placed ports on the top of the slide help vent gases upward, significantly reducing muzzle flip and felt recoil. This allows shooters to maintain better sight picture between shots and achieve faster, more accurate follow-up shots — a major advantage in competition and defensive scenarios.
Unlike aftermarket compensators that require threading and additional parts, the ZPS3 ported slide integrates the compensation directly into the slide itself. This design maintains a clean, low-profile appearance while delivering the performance benefits of a compensator without the added length or bulk of an external device.
