It was the old Gen2 gray finish i’m thinking about from my 19c and 23c. Those seemed to take a beating better.Lol which "old" slide treatment? There are at least 4 distinctly different finishes, I'm probably forgetting one.
-2 or 3 different shades of flat gray through several generations - these are the old guns that almost look frosty in appearance
-Gen 3 gloss black with very very slight texture - this is a very common one in gen 3
-That weird gray satin-like finish on some gen 4s - this is a hated finish, it marked/scuffed/mars easily although it still is protective
-The current Gen4/5 finish that is gloss black but no texture at all.
