I have purchased a variety of parts for the slide and looked at the listings for others and have seen nothing to indicate that the length of the slide makes any difference.

No difference between slide lengths, yes. But Sig has two different lengths of extractor retaining pins - the one you can see at the back of the slide. My P320c has the original shorter one, but my M17/M18's have the longer "plus" version that increases extractor tension. The ones I have bought for aftermarket slides are the original shorter ones. Sig and Midwest Gunworks have both version on their sites, so I will probably convert to the plus when they are in stock.
