Got my slide back about a week ago from getting James to duracoat it and install a set of TFO's. As before, excellent work. Can't wait to get to the range and test them out. Although it will probably be another week or two before I get that chance. Here's a few pics.

I think it was, judging by the date stamp on the empty case envelope, but I loved the way the duracoat looked. And since the wife doesn't know about this gun, yet, then I figured I'd do as much to camoflage it as was possible. She won't notice at a glance that the slide is an inch shorter. That is really the only difference since I had chopped the grip on my service.
