New Glock RTF anyone seen or held one?

[epic4444]

Im wondering if anyone has seen the new glocks in person or held one...wondering what they feel like and how different they are from the 3gen

*SEARCH?*

And, yes, I have held one. The grip feels nice, but I find the new cocking serrations really ugly.

I've held one and the new textured grip is definately nice. I wish they kept the slide serrations the same as the 3rd Gen though. 3rd generation slide on the new frame would be perfect.

+1 on the grip texture
-1 on the cocking serrations

Ammo Bros in Cerritos had them in stock two weeks ago. Haven't been there since then.

What everyone above me said :P

Held one, and it had slightly more aggressive checkring/texture for the grip which some would prefer I guess. Just not for me.

And cocking serration didn't seem like an improvement, more like a step backwards in functionality.

Wow... those serrations are uuuugly.

[Zervaman]

Eh, maybe I'm in the minority but I don't mind the serrations. Then again, I'd need to physically handle the gun to really get an opinion on them.

I like the serrations as well.

I was at the 2009 SHOT Show, and had a chance to fondle and photograph one of them:

The RTF is not slippery! Yeah!
Big improvement!

So are all Glock models to be like this or only selected models?

It's an option, they're not doing away with the Gen3 frames.

Personally I prefer the RTF2 texture to the Gen3. It fits my hand better (which I don't understand since it's the same size?). The cocking serrations fail though. If I had money to waste I'd get a standard G34 and switch it's slide & parts over to a RTF2 frame. But then, that would be a waste.
