What did I just buy? Colored G19 Gen4s

Thanks for clearing things up Jason. Can’t wait to get my hands on a gray one. Haven’t seen them anywhere.

I don’t understand why, when I have money to burn, nothing is available…:suicide:

Of course Glock isn’t cerakoted slides. Lipsey’s buys them two toned and contracts out a 3rd party to cerakote them.

Change out the striker channel liner OP, the company Lipseys contracts to apply and bake the cerakote does not remove or replace the liners.

Is there a way to tell if the liner has been replaced? If not, is there a way to tell if it is ruined?

If the liner comes out with the striker assembly then it most likely was not replaced. The heat will make them shrink around the spring. If it stays in the channel then you should be good to go. If you have one that needs to be replaced let me know as I think I have a few in my desk.

I really appreciate that Jason. I’ll take it apart in the morning and shoot you a PM if need be.

Thanks again

ETA: Removed the striker assemblies and the sleeve remained in the slide. I inspected with a flashlight and it looks good. Not sure if this means they replaced it or not but its good to know.

Thank you for the clarification, Jason! I spent a great deal in time + effort in attempting to figure out what the hell I purchased over the weekend and you confirmed it all in one post.

Without further ado, my significant others Magpul FDE Acuport Gen 4 G19 + my Gen4 G19.
