If this is true, bravo to Glock.

I'm not a fan of the slick Gen 5 finish... I much prefer the nPVD finish, like on the silver 43x/48.
What's a good aftermarket slide coating to add some grippiness?
Thanks, it works really well for free. If they were steel sights it wouldn't be bad to leave that way! I've put around 300 rounds through my 17 now, problem free. I installed the factory glock tritium 3 dots after the first 50 rounds and they shoot to poa so I am happy there like I imagined. My focus for the rest of this year is to shoot this pistol and my M4A1 carbine clone and only those for proficiency and skill growth.
I got a Gen 5 19 with the front serrations and no cutout last weekend at a Glock Days event at my dealer. Got a range membership and some Glock swag with it as part of the event.
Shot it yesterday and I think it’s the best Glock made to date now that they fixed the minor issue of the frame cutout. I need to get a 17 front serration as well.
Have an early G19.5 with cutout. Thought the trigger was pretty gritty. Bought new firing pin safety and trigger bar from Brownells. Looks the same but everything is much smoother.
The 19 still has far worse of a trigger pull than my G48.
I think there's a ton of variation in the triggers, and for the most part it seems random. A decade ago a friend of mine bought a Gen3 G23 and a Gen 3 G19 at the same time--both new guns made about the same time. One had a great trigger and the other one was awful. My first Gen5 G19 came with a good trigger, but I had to replace the trigger bar because of flaking and the second one wasn't as good. The trigger on my second 19.5 is fantastic. Hopefully the trigger bar holds up in this one!
