Your Questions Answered
Does this work on any Glock?
It is designed for Gen 3, 4, and 5 Glock frames. However, installation requires precise milling of the frame to accept the switch and its internal components. This is not a drop-in part and requires gunsmithing or the use of a jig.
What tools are needed for installation?
Professional installation is strongly recommended. It requires a drill press or milling machine, specific drill bits and end mills, and the appropriate jig to correctly locate the necessary cuts in the polymer frame. This is not a beginner gunsmithing project.
Is the packaging discreet?
We ship all items in plain, unmarked boxes. As a note on the product itself, while the internal packaging is functional, the manufacturer’s retail box is somewhat flimsy. The part inside is well-protected and arrives as expected.

Third purchase from this store. Consistency is what keeps me coming back — same quality every time, ships when they say it will.

Compared prices across 5 sites before buying here. Best price and fastest shipping. Product quality is what you’d expect from Selector.

Been in the market for a while and finally decided to buy from polymer80warehouse.com. I was comparing this against similar products from the other site and decided to take the chance. Glad I did. Arrived in 5 days, well-packaged, and the quality speaks for itself. Installed it on my Glock 45 and ran 143 rounds through it without a single hiccup. This is the real deal.

Did a lot of research before pulling the trigger on this purchase (pun intended). Read reviews on 3 different sites, watched YouTube videos, and ultimately went with polymer80warehouse.com because of the price and shipping speed. Not disappointed. Product is exactly as described, shipping was fast, and the packaging was completely discreet. Already eyeing a few more items in their Glock Switches section.
