Ready-To-Shoot. Built To Perform. Priced For Everyone.
The Desert Cat USA Oden Complete Slide is designed for shooters who demand reliability, simplicity, and value — without compromise.
Unlike typical "stripped" or "bare" slides, the Oden arrives Ready-To-Shoot (RTSO) with everything installed:
- Barrel
- Internal parts
- Polymer sights
- RMR optic cut + cover plate
No assembly. No extra parts to buy. No hidden costs.
Just drop it on your Glock® 17 Gen 1–3 frame and hit the range.
Why Choose the Oden Slide?
Fully Ready-To-Shoot (RTSO) — No Extra Parts Needed
- Includes precision barrel, internal parts (firing pin, extractor, safety plunger), and polymer sights pre-installed.
- No trips to the gunsmith. No hunting for compatible barrels or internals.
Premium 17-4 Stainless Steel Construction
- CNC-machined in the USA from certified, heat-treated 17-4 stainless steel — stronger and more corrosion-resistant than the cheaper 416 stainless many competitors use.
Optic-Ready for Trijicon RMR / Holosun 507C X2
- RMR optic cut included plus a matching cover plate if you want to run irons.
Cerakote Finish
- Offers both corrosion protection and a clean, rugged raw-steel aesthetic. Durable enough for hard use, striking enough to stand out.
Mass-Optimized Slide Design
- Large windows reduce mass for faster cycling and allow ported barrels for tuned performance.
