Okay.

 

Okay, I called Glock to find out my pistol born on date (8/20/16). I also asked the Glock tech. about the Gen 4 finish. He stated that it was a Nitride finish. He also stated that Glock used to use a Tenifer application, but, because it contains cyanide they stopped using it. Okay?

 

if it has the same finish..... use it to fry some eggs as you shoot.....

 

You joke, but the finish is hardened egg whites.

They used to use whole eggs, but had to switch to egg whites because the yolks cause heart disease.

 

Hey.

Blah, blah, blah.

The finish on my pistol's slide looks like the finish on cookware!

Okay.

 

over the years glock has changed the final coating from black to a very dark grayish color and now back to the dull nitrite finish. a lot ot it has to to do with the EPA and what they will allow in the uSA

 

Here's a little explanation of the process used to treat some gun slides. Once Glock slides are treated, an ever-changing array of finishes are applied (none of which have ever been disclosed to the public).

Melonite and Tenifer are not finishes, they are brand names for processes for treating metal upon which finishes will later be applied. (Regardless of what Ed, from customer service, would tell some cook with a Glock, who's girlfriend hits the bricks at Christmas Time. [emoji319])

I'm the Glock novice here, GFB. Aren't members with your status supposed to be teaching me about Glocks? BTW, tell my kids Merry Christmas!

 

Whoever starts this crap in another thread will get a week off minimum.
