Product Description
Way back in the early 1990s when we first introduced the Seattle Slug, we offered it in both a "regular" and a "concealment" model.
The "regular" model came out first, and we offered the "concealment" model as a custom product. As it happens, the "regular" model worked pretty well concealed, so the "concealment" model remained a custom-order-only proposition.
With the rise of USPSA Carry Optics (which forbids any extension of the frame) we've got more and more people asking us for the concealment model -- so we decided to make them "for real." The Snail complies with USPSA's requirements, and offers shooters a way to get maximum weight into the gun -- and smooth out your reloads considerably by filling in the void inside the grip. (Which tends to snag the rim of the top-most cartridge in the magazine.)
You'll get a little under 3 ounces of weight out of the modification, which is enough to lower the center of gravity and smooth out the way the gun behaves -- particularly while speed reloading.
This model fits the Glock Gen 2 and Gen 3 frames. There is some variation from Gen to Gen, and from serial number to serial number, so take care to shim up or shave down the slug so you get a gentle press-fit. (Robin likes using a layer of electrician's tape to snug up a loose-fitting Slug/Snail.)
Fits: Glock 17, 17L, 20, 21, 22, 24, 31, 34, and 35
Weight: 3 ounces
Material: Brass
Color: Shiny Brass
NOTE: Don’t remove the screw from the backstrap as you may strip the screw hole.

Awesome!
The fit and finish and tolerance of the snail is typical Taylor Freelance perfect. What makes this product and is not show in the picture is the scoop on the backside. It mates up perfectly with the cutout inside of the magwell and speeds up your reloads. And the weight helps manage your sight picture.

Great Grip Weight
The Seattle Snail is a little heavier than other products out there, The feature that really stands out, is the little bevel cut at the bottom. It functions almost like an internal magwell that helps speed up and smooth out mag changes. I highly recommend this mod.
