Ha...yeah sorry I'm on my telephonic device
Tenifer is a process where the metal is given a nitride bath and makes the metal rust resistant. The top coat finish has nothing to do with the Tenifer treatment, it's just top coat. You will find Glocks with a few different top coat types but they were all Tenifer treated Glock did stop using the Tenifer process a few years ago and changed to a similar process but that has nothing to do with the final top coat you see on the gun.
If you want to buy a ugly gun you don't have to spend all that cash and worry about the finish just buy a high point and a can of black spray paint they look the same lol
The tennifer treatment process also penetrates the metal rather than simply covering it. This why a glock with extreme finish wear doesn't rust, also why a polished Glock barrel or slide doesn't rust. Bluing solution won't generally work on a Glock unless significant metal has been sanded off.
