The descriptions says it is a gas nitride finish. I thought all G48's were considered Gen 5 and had a nDLC finish like the other Gen 5's. Anyone know for sure what finish this is?

Jeffrey, according to the Glock website, G48 features a compact Slimline frame and a black slide with an nDLC finish. Details here >>>>>  https://us.glock.com/en/pistols/g48-us     .....Have a great day!

That's weird on other sites it's saying finish is gas nitride plus the slide finish is is black nDLC. I'd imagine Glock would know what they put on their slide and as Edward showed they state it's nDLC finish. Hope this helps.
