About this product
What is the P80 Full Size Slide Assembly – PF940v2/PFS9 – OD Green - polymer 80? It is a complete polymer slide kit for the Polymer80 PF940v2/PFS9 platform, finished in OD Green for immediate build.
The kit includes the slide, barrel, recoil spring assembly, and mounting hardware, all machined to 0.001" tolerances. Designed for competitive shooters, it streamlines assembly and reduces fit‑check time.
What is the P80 Full Size Slide Assembly used for?
It is used to complete the upper receiver of a P80 PF940v2/PFS9 build, providing a functional slide and barrel for firing.
The slide mates with a 9mm lower, and the barrel length is 3.9" (99 mm), delivering reliable cycling in most 9mm loads while maintaining a compact profile.
How does the P80 Full Size Slide Assembly compare to the Polymer80 PF940V2 Slide?
The ArcForge slide is 0.2 oz (5.7 g) lighter and finishes OD Green, whereas the standard Polymer80 PF940V2 slide weighs 14.5 oz (411 g) in matte black.
This weight reduction improves recoil control, and the color option offers tactical concealment without additional coating.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
It weighs 14.0 oz (397 g) and measures 5.0" (127 mm) in length, 1.2" (30 mm) in height, and 0.45" (11 mm) in width.
The dimensions keep the overall pistol length at 7.5" (191 mm) when paired with a standard lower.
Who is this NOT for?
This slide is not for shooters who need a full auto‑compatible upper or prefer steel slides for maximum durability.
Its polymer construction prioritizes weight savings over the heat resistance of forged steel, making it less suitable for high‑volume, rapid‑fire scenarios.
What's in the box?
The package contains one polymer slide, one 3.9" barrel, a recoil spring set, two slide catch pins, and a pre‑drilled jig plate.
All parts are ready for immediate assembly; you only need a compatible lower and basic tools.
Is the P80 Full Size Slide Assembly worth it at $415?
Yes, at $415 it delivers a ready‑to‑install slide with precision tolerances and a unique OD Green finish, saving you $80‑$120 compared to ordering components separately.
For DIY builders, the time saved (approximately 30 minutes) and the built‑in quality control justify the price.

Pros & cons
What works
- Weighs 14.0 oz — 0.5 oz lighter than the standard PF940V2 slide
- OD Green finish eliminates need for aftermarket coating
- All tolerances held to ±0.001" for plug‑and‑play fit
Trade-offs
- Polymer slide may show heat discoloration after extended rapid fire
- No stippling or textured grip surface on slide – adds $30‑$50 if desired
- Limited to 9mm; not compatible with larger calibers without new barrel

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with a standard P80 PF940v2 lower?
- Yes, the slide is engineered for the PF940v2 lower and aligns with the factory‑specified slide rails. Installation typically takes 15‑20 minutes with a basic screwdriver set.
- Does it fit a 4.0" barrel extension?
- It accepts barrel extensions up to 4.0" (101 mm) without machining. Extension kits from Polymer80 or Lone Wolf can be added for marginally higher velocities.
- How long does shipping take?
- Standard US shipping is 3‑5 business days; expedited options deliver in 1‑2 days. International orders average 7‑10 days, depending on customs.
- Can I return it if it doesn't fit?
- Yes, under the ArcForge Arms Component Return Policy you have 30 days to return unused parts for a full refund, provided the original packaging is intact.
- Does this work with a standard polymer pistol grip?
- It interfaces with any 9mm polymer grip that uses the standard 5‑hole pattern; most aftermarket grips, including the P80 G19, will mount without modification.
