Which finish should I pick?
Shallow engraving (included in the starting price): a white surface marking.
Deep engraving: engraved deeper into the plate. Choose deep engraving if you want color infill.
Infill: fills a deep engraving with 1 or 2 colors. Without infill, the engraving shows white or grey depending on depth.
The product photos show a shallow engraving on a standard plate and deep engravings on blacked-out and standard plates.
Send us your logo, name, unit crest or any design you like, and we'll laser engrave it on a Glock slide backplate that replaces your factory slide cover plate. It comes in sizes for the Glock 17, 19, 19X, 43X, 48, 42, Gen 6, Glock V and more, and every plate is machined in house in El Paso, Texas.
What you get
- One slide backplate in the size you choose, with your artwork laser engraved on it
- A mockup of your design on the plate to approve before we make it
- Shallow engraving included, with deep engraving and 1 or 2 color infill as options
Your artwork
Upload your file in the Graphics/Logo box above. We accept PNG, JPG, JPEG, GIF, SVG and WebP. Use the How would you like to customize your backplate? box to tell us about text, colors or placement.
Simple, high-contrast designs engrave best. Our artwork design guide shows good and bad examples and how to clean up a logo before you upload it.

Came up with the idea for crimson ghost backplates as a goof. Ordered them and received em in 5 days. Great price and couldn’t have been faster.
Was this helpful? - CAChris A.Verified BuyerI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars8 months agoWow! Super quick and high quality! Custom back plate made and sent in less than a week.
I am very impressed. I placed this custom order one night, and by the next day, the USPS tracking code had been generated. It shipped a couple days later, and I received it a couple days after that! The slide back plates look great and fit perfectly. This was a custom order of an F-16. I sent in a jpeg photo and they reproduced it perfectly...Thank you!

30 days no question asked money back!
If for whatever reason you don't absolutely love our Glock Back Plates, please return them for a full refund! NO QUESTIONS ASKED! I mean it!
We'd appreciate a heads up but if you don't want to just ship it with a note in the box with something we can identify your order with (order number, date, name, email, etc...)
That's it!!!
