Pre-purchase jitters

Edited to add: I'm not bashing Glocks, I just personally preferred the one I ended up purchasing.

And in the end, that's what matters most.

Congrats.

I will admit to not being completely clear. It depends upon the surface finish of the steep lates or rollers that the G10 is pressed between during manufacture. If the plates are highly polished, the plastic surface will mild that high polish. Different telxtures can be pressed into the surfaces as well like matte, or even rougher textures.

G10 is similar to micarta in that it is a resin that is incorporated into multiple layers of woven material, in this case fiberglass. I've never seen it glossy or perfectly smooth and suspect that even if it were made that way, wear would ultimately result in a bit of texture.
