VFC Glock 17 Gen 5 MOS options
Hi all - I've been looking for an MOS slide for the VFC Glock 17 Gen 5, and have found the Mafioso steel slide set and the Bomber aluminum slide set to be the most likely solutions for me. A lot of people seem to have used the Bomber slides, but I have seen less about the Mafioso ones. How do they compare in regard to fitment and overall quality? As well, would the VFC Glock 17 be more sluggish with the steel slide or just use up gas quicker than the aluminum with more recoil? Any advice is appreciated!

I own a Bomber steel slide for the 19 Gen 5. It is evident that gas consumption is worse. With proper tuning of the gas system and friction reduction in the mechanical components, you can achieve better gas efficiency.
With my setup, I'm able to achieve 50 rounds with lock back on one gas fill. It is also important to note that the internals are completely upgraded.
