Thanks bud, great looking pistol!
As noted, reduced glare is a benefit of the serrations/checkering, but it also looks Gucci !

Cost is listed on the SA website under "Custom." It was very reasonable with a fairly quick turnaround time (I think it was 8 weeks).

I really like the rubber grip. It doesn't look pretty but is very functional and really grew on me.

I have a full railed TRP OP and it has 20 LPI. I really like it but it is too sharp for some (and the sand paper grips). Here's a pic of that one...After I put an evil black trigger in it!
