Glock 22 RTS2 Pistol (Rough Textured Frame version #2)


The new Rough Textured Frame design has more than 4,000 raised pyramids on the front, rear and sides of the polymer receiver. The raised pyramids are also located on the thumb rests for increased grip traction. In addition, the slide on the G22 RTF2 has a new, modern look with crescent shaped serrations located at the rear of the slide.

According to Glock, several major agencies commit to the G22 RTF2 .40 ACP and have had an outpour of interest from the Commercial and Law Enforcement distributors about ther new product. The texture on the pistol allows for a great shooting grip. The serrations on the slide also allow for easier slide operation because it is more ergonomically correct.

Depending upon feedback, the company may continue the modifications to the popular G17 (9mm), and then to other Glock models. Personally, its a step forward. Glock is a company that firmly believes that if its not broken why fix it. So, the changes they have made in the past, present, and into the future, will always be minor but in the same way, significant. Keep on shootin!
