Hello guys! Greetings from Poland!

I couldn't find an answer within polish community, so I decided to look for such here in "local".
With some youtube "opinions", I decided to purchase RAND HAWG Grease for my Glock 45 and shortly for my first AR15. Thought that it's high-end grease so I can have the best treatment for my toys.

When I got my delivery, I found out that it's not same as the one I've seen on youtube test videos, it's not light red but dark green. Have contacted online seller who claims that it came from US like that. It didn't had any seal or anything, so I am worried that something is wrong.

What do you think?

Thanks!

Colors in grease outside of brown/tan are just a dye added for identification.  Whoever made the grease may have chosen to change the dye for one reason or another.

No answer to your direct question,  but that looks pretty damn thick to be applying to Glock internals.

I'll second that.

Rails only and even then, lightly. I use a VERY soft white lithium grease [Lith Ease] from a tube for the rails of my semi autos but just a dab on each one. That would be better for a garand/M1A grease unless it's softer then it looks.

The stuff you showed looks like a cheap all purpose wheel bearing grease.

You say it came from the USA and shipped to your country in Europe? I assume Poland?

I wonder if flying with it and just general long term exposure to temperature changes caused that color to change. That or maybe it got contaminated in some way.

Overall you probably have better luck using the same grease you can get from an automotive store. I imagine you had to pay a lot of money for that when the grease at your automotive store will work. I'm using Lucas Red n Tacky on my glock and ar15. It has worked wonderfully.

Why not ask the manufacturer?   I wouldn't put it on a glock, overkill.
