Glock frames?

[superman63086]

So my question is actually about colored frames. I have seen OD green, Desert Tan, and Gray. But where do people get them? Is there a coloring process for the Polymer or is someone coating and selling them? Cant really find anywhere that actually sells these but I have seen enough to make me think that they existed as original.
Thanks in advance for feedback.

Glock made a limited number of olive framed guns. depending on the lighting when pictures were taken, they can look like any of the colors you described. Some of the other frames you've seen were likely Duracoated.

Like Gabriel stated, Glock used to make OD fames, but discontinued them a year or two ago. Others have their frames duracoated.

The light and angle when taking a pict often distorts the actual color.

Well although disappointing I am glad to have the info. However, wont the duracote rub off of a polymer frame?

I have an OD G19

As others have mentioned, sometimes when i take pictures of it they turn out FDE or Grey

Give it the krylon touch. You can have any color you want.

No worse than it would off of a metal frame. There are a few options to change the color of a Glock, but no matter what you do to it, it still wont be as cool as a 1911

They also made them in red and blue.

They also made them in red and blue.

I've never heard about these but here is some info I found.

Red Glock Practice Pistol The Glock Practice Pistols work normally for loading, unloading and trigger operation but are made non-firing by a plugged barrel and solid breechface. They are identical to a standard pistol in size, shape and weight but have a bright red or blue frame to identify them as training pistols. The following models are available: G17P, G19P, G22P, G23P and G26P. Glock Practice Pistols are only available to law enforcement officers.

Bingo, Red is training and blue is simunitions.
