Pre-owned Glock 23 Gen 3 40 S&W RTF2 Texture and 'Fish Gill' Serrations

Up for sale is a certified modern classic and a highly sought-after collectible piece of Glock history: a pre-owned Glock 23 Gen 3 RTF2 (Rough Texture Frame 2) chambered in .40 S&W, featuring the incredibly rare factory "Fish Gill" curved slide serrations.

Manufactured for a very narrow window around 2009–2010, the RTF2 series was Glock's experimental answer to military and law enforcement operators demanding a more aggressive, non-slip factory grip profile. It features hundreds of tiny, raised "polymid" pyramids across the frame that offer an ironclad grip in wet, muddy, or high-stress environments. Paired with the distinct, scalloped "fish gill" rear slide serrations instead of the standard straight lines, this specific configuration is a highly recognizable holy grail for Glock purists.

This specific specimen is an honest, authentic duty-carry setup. It shows typical exterior finish thinning and subtle holster wear on the high edges of the slide flats, but it remains incredibly tight mechanically. Crucially, the highly aggressive polymid pyramids on the grip frame remain incredibly sharp, crisp, and completely un-sanded, preserving the exact tactical feel that made these frames famous. It comes nestled in a standard-style Glock hard case, ready for the range or a prominent spot on a collector's shelf.
