Pic request - Full Cerakote gun that has been carried often for over a year

[Ron Swanson]

Does anyone have a pic of a full Cerakote, slide and frame, preferably in a lighter color, that has been a primary ccw carry over a year or so?

Reading about it people are saying its a wear item but I want to see what I should expect if I were to get a gun coated. I'm ok with rubbing marks like the battleworn look those try to replicate, but what I don't want to see is chipping and flaking.

Anyone have anything to show?

I really wouldn't worry about it.

Ill post mine later. Only the edges on the front of the slide are "significantly" worn, if you could even call it that. After near everyday carry and around 600 rounds in a year. Only did the slide tho

yes it does wear. I dont have any pictures but my g23 had a bit of slide wear from the holster.

My gun i shoot competitions with is worn a bit. I don't wear it every day but it definitely gets shot more and drawn from a holster more than my EDC's. This gun probably has around 4-5k rounds through it. Original cerakote
