I'm not sure if this should be here or in the Semi Auto Pistol forum but I have a 43x currently in jail at the dealer and I'm thinking I'd like to have it cut for a 407k at some point. I'm assuming I can send the slide off to have someone cut it. I don't need anything fancy done it no weird color or cuts to make it look like the hallway to the Death star... just cut for the dot and maybe a cover so I can run it without the dot if I choose.

What are some good shops that will do this?

I was very happy with L&M Precision, though he milled a custom adapter to attach an RMR to mine versus the 407K.

Primary Machine is excellent and has a one to two week or so turn around.

Do the refinish the cut area?

They refinish the whole slide as part of their installation.

It's apparently a 8 week turn around if you want black nitride which is a bummer because if I were going to get it cut I'd want it to look factory; I'm not really interested in doing some crazy color to it.

Here is the crazy color I picked, and it took just over a week.

I honestly didn't see black on the website but I was on my phone.

Still nitrite is going to be a tougher than cerakote and closer to the factory finish.

I had my G19X slide cut by Jagerweks and they did a Ceracote to match the FDE. They offer other options as well. You will need to call them as they only list a RMSc cut which is NOT the same as the 407/507K.
