Zaffiri Precision has just announced new Z Series ported complete uppers for Glock 19 Gen 3 pistols.
Compensators are becoming an increasingly popular feature on defensive pistols, but they have a downside—increased length. If you’re looking to make your handgun more shootable while keeping it compact, you’re going to want to look at ported barrel and slide systems. The latest option for Gen 3 Glock 19-style guns is the Ported Z Complete Upper from Zaffiri Precision.
Featuring two rows of three ports on each side of the top of the slide, Zaffiri says that the Ported Z Glock 19 upper can reduce recoil and muzzle rise by up to 25 percent. The slide is machined from a single billet of 17-4 stainless steel and is finished with Armor Black Cerakote. The slide also features forward/rear slide serrations and an optics cut for Trijicon RMR-pattern red dots.
When ordering, customers can also choose from some optional upgrades at no additional charge, including the barrel finish (Black Nitride, Gold, Stainless or Spectrum) and the sights (fiber optic, suppressor-height fiber optic, standard low-profile or standard suppressor-height), and sight installation is free as well. For an extra fee, you can also choose to have night sights, a Holosun red dot, an upgraded extractor or an upgraded back plate installed.
The Ported Z Glock 19 upper is available now and pricing starts at $330, although Zaffiri Precision describes that as an introductory price so expect it to eventually go up.
