SHOT Show 20 – ATOM 2.0 Slides Are Coming From Unity Tactical

Unity Tactical’s original ATOM slides for the Glock family of pistols was offered several years ago via crowdfunding. It was one of the first commercially available after market slides with a cut out to mount a red dot sight.

The new ATOM 2.0 remains a drop in slide for the G17/19, but they are also adding the SIG P320 to the lineup. The footprint allows for a quick swap of RDS.

The slide comes stripped with a channel liner and a suppressor height front sight installed. Rear sights are integrated into the optics plate and I witness through the MRDS. You’ll need to swap out the OEM internals from your current slide or install new ones into the ATOM 2.0 slide.

What’s more, the ATOM 2.0 footprint is licensable and can be applied to most striker fired pistols. Adapter plates are available for most mini red dot sights.

    Is the work on the grip shown in the first pic done by Unity as well? Or another company? Thanks.

    So, is the plate just secured to the slide by three set screws…or am I missing something?

    • nattydreadbushdoctor says:

      Looks like a bevel cut fore&aft aspect of the slide cut so the set screws just prevent the base rotating out of the slot.

        Looks like there is a screw hole behind the rear iron sight notch and a dimple in the slide for the screw to lock into.

        • Mark says:

          Yeah, that’s one of the the three set screws I referred to.

          • BM says:

            Sure looks like that one set screw/dimple is the only thing keeping it in place.
            Those two holes look like they are for mounting the MRDS.

      • Andrew says:

        The bevel curvature is asymmetrical thus directional and won’t overrotate. There is 1 set screw to lock it down.

    • Chip Lasky says:

      The plate is secured with two non-concentric arc cuts that feature undercuts, capturing the plate front and back. It’s a tight fit that requires a tap from a rubber mallet to properly seat the plate. A tapered set screw is simply insurance.

    When will the slides be available?
