Glock RTF grip.

Held one today and can say I like it for holding, though it may be a tad abrasive for CCW against the skin.

Mexican carry, wot? Get a holster and it won't be a problem.

Which holster has complete coverage of the pistol grip so it doesn't touch your skin? Yes, you can wear a t-shirt, but on hot days, I prefer to only wear one shirt!

None, I guess you're right. Between uniform habits & carrying guns that aren't rust proof (i.e. not Glocks); I always wear an under shirt. So I guess I didn't consider that entirely, my apologies.

not true. kholster.com has complete coverage of the grip. Thing looks huge though. I think youre supposed to cut it to your liking, but I guess you can leave it whole.

+1 for the feel of the gun. I think the RTF gives it a bit more secure feel in my hand. The reshaped slide cuts look a bit funny, but they seem to function well.

Glock G22 RTF

I have to give this a thumbs down. I know, I'll get hatemail for it but....

I'm a true Glock nerd but have a sinking feeling that the Austrian mentality is gonna bite Gaston's company in the butt. Austrians/Germans are notorious for being hyper egotistical about their product designs and are typically slow to "respond" to market/customer demands. But hey, when Glock can make a G17 for about $80 USD and sell them for $500 USD, why change anything, right?

IMHO, both Springfield (XD and XDM) and Smith and Wesson (new M&P) have outpaced the Glock offerings in a big way. From hand feel, materials, fit/finish and extras that come with the gun, these other two manufacturers are giving the consumer one hell of an offering.

Ok, back on track....the RTF is quite an odd feel in the hand. Kinda like 80 grit sandpaper meets the business end of a kitchen zester/grater. Just plain weird feeling.

Unless your LE and are working up a frothy, palm sweat and need your Glock to stick and not let go, I would pass on the RTF.

LOL yes it has that "sandpaper/zester/grater" feel, which ultimately is up to personal preference.
