    I'm pretty sure you can RIT Dye it though. Have some some examples of polymer being died on Reddit. Frame can't be black to start though.

    Cerakote works fine on polymer frames. You just have to be aware of the temperature when baking the finish.

    In fact, all Glock pistols that are colored from factory come in only: A total of six colors are manufactured from the factory in addition to black: Olive Drab, Flat Dark Earth, Battle Field Green, and Grey, as well as two additional colors that are used for the manufacturing of training pistols, blue and red. The GLOCK 42 is the first single stack pistol produced by GLOCK.
    All the other variation of colors have been sent out for Cerakote or similar coating.

    It’s dark earth. I’m not sure you can cerakote a Glock frame since it requires baking the finish on.
    A lot of the ones I see for sale that aren’t black are coated. I was pretty happy to start finding these colored frames a few months ago. My sweat is pretty acidic, I imagine I’d tear up a cerakote coating pretty quick.

    I have a 43 in dark earth and was ready to buy a G20 in dark earth and then the rest of the US decided they needed to buy all the guns. Favorite color is Battlefield Green though.

    Wife decided she wanted to learn to shoot and sense she only fired a pistol one time. I got her a starter set.

    I got my wife a very similar setup years ago. Crimson (pink) SR22 and LC9, with bag and goodies. She has still never shot them. Might have to get a range day for them both to meet and try out their new pistols.

    The only colored framed Glocks I ever had were FDE color factory guns. I bought the first one, a G26 over 10 years ago
