Anyone have a textured frame glock?

Does anyone have a glock with a textured frame and the curved slide serrations? If you do, do you like the texture? Are they considering this to be the Gen 4 or just another version of Gen 3?

I've had a few come through the shop. The grip is really nice on them.

I think they are Gen3 RTF

I had a 17RTF2, but couldn't get over the look and feel compared to the usual gen. 3's. Technically Glock is treating them like a three and a half; with the 4th gen frames to have interchangeable backstraps among other things.

I got one in a trade and although I didn't like it when I first saw these, I find that it shoots and feels fine. I thought that it might be a bit abrasive when shooting but that is not the case. The 3rd Gen points and feels so much better than the original. I hope that the 4th Gen feels like the sigma.

The Gen4 reportedly is going to have a modified grip texture and interchangeable back straps. I've heard that the mag release is supposed to change too.

I'm perfectly happy with my Gen3, though.
