Good to know. Thanks.

My multiple backpacking trips with Glocks and M&Ps beg to differ. Whether it's the metal or the coating, the M&P rusts--the Glock (except for the sights) does not.
Glocks are not immune from rusting.
Agreed. Both glox I've carried while rucking regularly have rusted slides. They shoot fine, though...

DDNP. Diazodinitrophenol.
It's more erosion than corrosion on the Glock.
Ferritic nitrocarburizing is not the be-all-end-all many think as a finish. I'm looking at Todd's 1911 right now, and while there is basically no rifling, the breech face is quite nice.
No substitute for through hardened alloy steel.
Chrome or nickel plating the Glock will solve that problem, though.
I try to get a little patina character on mine but mostly without luck. I've put training guns up wet a couple times, take them back out the following week to shoot again; nada. But you give me hope.
