well i went and did it. traded my 3rd gen glock 19 for the 3rd gen glock 19 rtf2. :D

i like it better. the texture on the handle allows for a non slip grip for faster and more accurate followup shots. i have fired 500 rounds so far, 100 rounds each range session, and the texture is great. no discomfort whatsoever. (also no malfunctions in 500 rounds either, typical glock :D)

something else i noticed, the rtf2 grip is slightly smaller all around than my other g19. good for me, as i have small hands.

the curved slide serrations, although a little odd looking on the glock, are in fact deeper and therefore easier to grasp for me despite glock's slick finish.

i had my local glock armorer put in a 3.5lb Scherer connector, which actually brings the pul down to about 4lbs. this is a great improvement to the glock trigger pull for me and would not buy another glock without adding one. this new connector makes the trigger break only slightly less defined, but reset is the same. it's a trade off--you get a much lighter pull, with a still acceptably perceivable trigger break, though not as perceivable as the original connector.

thanks for sharing, i think i will stick with the plane ole generation 3 or wait for the models with the interchangable backstraps maybe. glad it works out for you.

Glad someone likes them. I'm a big Glock fan but will pass on the sandpaper finish of the RTF.

The newer 4th Gen seems to have addapted a different grip finish on it.

The narrowist feeling glocks were the first generation pebbling, its amazing how much samller they feel when held side by side to a similar 3rd gen. The 2nd gens are good to, the finger grips add girth.
 
:barf: Glock folks are weird... sandpaper finishes and fishgill slide serrations make them go "wow nice!".

I am not sure I will ever understand it :)
 
I think Glock made a typo when they named the texture.

It shouldn't be "RTF" it should be "***" .........just sayin'............
