This guide details the installation of the Kiral Defense Heavyweight Steel Backstrap for Glock pistols, specifically the Glock 17 Gen 5. The process involves removing the trigger housing pin, replacing the original backstrap with the steel version, and securing it with a provided steel pin.

The backstrap also offers a subtle alteration to the grip's shape, which some users prefer for feel.
