Well, I've heard some guys say that there really wasn't a designation as "RTF" ever produced, though gen. 2's and 3's definitely have a textured grip when compared with the gen. 1 models. So, "RTF" could apply to the gen. 2's and 3's; however, RTF2 was another option for the gen. 3 models and the gilled slides were produced only for a short time 'cause not everyone loved them. You can find gen. 3 RTF2's with straight serrations on the slide. The gen. 4 models aren't technically called RTF though I guess they could be considered an "RTF3."I know htat the gen4 texture is based off RTF, but is it true that RTF2 came before RTF?
How do you like the CT laser? Did it make the grip feel any thicker or take some getting used to? Looks nice!
Yep, mine has RTF2 on it's box...I think the 17's box does say "RTF2" on it...I'll have to look.
