View Full Version : New G19 problems?????????
I just purchased a G 19 about a week ago. I have noticed the finish on the slide looks somewhat like it is textured or been lightly bead blasted. Is this normal or is there a problem with the finish. It is GEM serial number. Has there been any info or reports about problems with the finish on theses 19's? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

Man, people really need to relax. Your G19's slide is perfectly fine. My GSZ### G27 slide has the same texturing. It's a fairly recent change to the slide finish.

Compeletely normal, 3rd gen finish. Has been on Glocks since the introduction of the G37.

Easy for you to say. What about the hole right in the center of my G19's barrel? The bullet could fall through there when I'm carrying the gun with the barrel down. ;a

Mine had that texturing on it until I tied it to the back of my car and drove 200 miles. Then it was broken in and ready to shoot.~2 ^5
Why drag it behind the car when you can use a belt sander. ;f

I just bought a new 19 today and it has the black wrinkle paint semi-gloss finish as well.I do prefer the old dull flat-black finish my old 19s had.YMMV.tom.
