Glock 17 Gen 4 Desert Tan / Flat Dark Earth : A Glock With Personality

About this video

Colion compares an all-black Glock 17 Gen 4 with a Flat Dark Earth (FDE) version, arguing that the two-tone color scheme gives the typically utilitarian Glock more personality and visual appeal. He explains that while he initially dismissed color variations, seeing the FDE version in person changed his perspective due to the striking contrast between the black slide and tan frame. Colion emphasizes that both guns are functionally identical, but the FDE model feels more special and exciting to own, partly because of its relative scarcity.

Key takeaways

• Colion believes the Flat Dark Earth color variation adds character and personality to the otherwise utilitarian all-black Glock design
• According to Colion, the FDE Glock looks much more impressive in person than in photos or online, thanks to the contrast between the black and tan components
• Colion suggests that part of the FDE Glock’s appeal comes from its exclusivity and rarity compared to standard black models
