I like the looks of a handgun with holster wear and it does not bother me a bit. Here is what happened to me about 2 years ago that I did not like. I bought a new Glock (27) from a internet business and when I got it I could not believe the condition of the slide. First of all it was that dull finish that Glock had started using around that time. That bad thing was it looked like the slide had been put in a box with about 100 other slides and shook real good for about an hour. Scratches all over the place on that slide in every direction. Now I know its a tool but I prefer to put my own scratches on a gun so I sent it off to Glock. They called me a week or so later and tried to tell me it was not a new gun. We talked for awhile and they decided they would refinish the slide. Well, about 10 weeks later I got my slide back it about the same condition that it was in when I sent it. Needless to say, I don't worry about treating that G27 with kid gloves today.
