Should i let it go and ignore it, or trade it for a P320 .357 SIG ?

Lightly oil that thing and it will be fine...

Wipe it down with a silicone rag and put a coat of Renaissance Wax on the slide. I had to start using wax on my GP 10mm because where I live feels like the armpit of Hell during the summer and I SWEAT. None of the holsters I have covered the Mag release on my gun and the left side and body of it started getting surface rust, bad. I got tired of field stripping the gun to wipe down the Mag release and started using the Renaissance Wax.

Well that is nothing compared to my G20.
I wear it in a IWB Supertuck... but the issue is at my 3 oclock carry, it just happens to rub on the inside of my jean's rivet ( small watch pocket rivet ).  About the same location as yours, but the opposite side.  Looks like my grandkids scribbled on it with a awl.

I don't like it, but live with it.

Scrub some oil on that spot and you should be fine. I hear their newest finish they use isn't as good as the older ones. Still beats the hell out of crappy blueing.

Damn .
In the last year I've started to switch over to eezox and I've been happy ever since . If you have ever owned mp5 magazines rust like you wouldn't believe and at 80 bucks a pop seeing rust on them drives me nuts . I used to keep them dripping in oil but would still get speckled rust after 3 months . Since I've gone to eezox I've haven't had any and I don't have to have the mags dripping wet neither. I've even treated a g3 parts kit that has a in white ptr reciver no rust on it since I've sprayed it .

Gen 4 does not have the Tenafor finish.

Yea most people I've talked to that have these have the same complaint.
I'll try to remember the wax tip if I ever run out of eezox.
Back to the op sounds like a late model 3rd gen , glock did change some things on the late gen3 guns same time frame as the gen 4 release' s if that includes finishes I don't know .

My gen4 g20 fde I picked up on a trade from a gun store I can't be for certain but I believe the previous owner had the slide cerkoted to match the frame. It does show a little holster wear around the front edge of the slide but other than that it's been holding up pretty good. So that might be an option for you to consider.
