Little hard to see in the pictures, but I am guessing that it either did not stay in the bluing tank long enough, or they did not give it enough time for the bluing to 'cure'.
It sounds dumb, but all else being equal, a blued finish that sits unmolested for 24+ hours is far more durable than one that didn't I would also check the slide lock and anywhere else where there is wear for rough spots or a burr. If you want it reblued, I'd be happy to rust blue it for you.

Mike does good work, I can attest.
I agree that finish sucks and they need to change it. I was just asking if it was a custom gun but, that doesn’t really matter......it should NOT wear that fast. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I pm'd Bob Serva over on the big board. I heard back from him. "Yes, that is completely normal for black oxide finish on a tightly fit pistol. Just oil it up and have safe fun with her."

Ok, so I finally decided to look at my rock island, this has 600 rounds through it.

Based on Serva's reply mine is obviously a superior firearm, that's why the coating is worn off...
