The biggest thing for me is the tradeoff between style and practicality. The factory finish on Glocks is tough for a reason, and once you strip it, you’re committing to more maintenance to keep rust or wear from showing. Some folks are okay with that while others wish they had kept it original.
It's a horrible idea.
One, corrosion. You'd have to be on top of it like white-on-rice.
Two, tolerances. Glocks are not target guns, of course. HOwever, you CAN hit with one...left stock.
Three, re-sale/trade. You'll TRASH that aspect of it.
There are numerous aftermarket finishes out there to make it 'whiter', light in appearance.
Hard-Chrome, or teflon-whatever, or even ceracoat. You just won't have the SHINE.
