I just picked this up. I guess its new for 2018? A non-Vickers.
I sure like the texture!
215 rounds of 115, 124 and 147 down range just fine.

Whoa! Good to know! I am glad they are making these again as this is the texture I prefer

They have been around since late 2017. You can get them in the $460 range. I bought a couple stripped frames from this lot.

Cool. I just came across a spare G19 Gen 3 complete upper I need one of these lowers for now.

Best factory texture from Glock.
I've been seeing these on some our distributors' websites. I've wanted one since they first appeared years ago but I really lust for one with the original fish gills, if only to match with my RTF2 G17 and its gilled slide. Picking up a bare frame and making it a project gun would be a nice fallback, though.

I had a G22 RTF2 for a while that I really loved with my gen 1 17 on the top end and decided that a 17 or a 19 had to happen at some point. I had a poop brown Vickers 19 for several years after that and it just wasn’t the ticket. I’m kinda tempted to pick up one of the new 19’s, and also a 17 frame and put together a 34 with it the way Para has mentioned in a few threads.
It’s not a great texture for IWB carry, but it is a great texture for a pistol you would have on your nightstand or your assorted off body carry or stashed away for quick access. Carry for adverse conditions? Covered.

One of these with a factory front serration slide like they did last year would be beautiful.

I’ve also got one from 2009/10. I love it as a woods gun when I’m carrying it in a gunfighters inc kenai chest holster.

I found a second one on Thursday, I was heading to shooting qualifications and taking my first RTF 19. Doing this qualified me to buy under the Blue Label and I went back and bought the second RTF 19. I thought that was pretty cool!
I'll keep one held back and carry and shoot the initial one I bought.
