They did a great job. Had them do the front serrations too. Fast turnaround too. Only took a week. This is my first RMR. I zeroed it yesterday.

Quoted: This is my first RMR. Welcome to the slippery slope. I've found that mrds are a huge improvement over irons. The idea was just going to be to put one on a carry gun. Then I wanted one on my competition gun. Then I realized that I much prefer them over irons and basically was very rarely shooting iron sight pistols. Long story short, mrds all the pistols. |

Nice. I'm a bit envious.
I'm at week 5 waiting on mine from Battle Werx (optic cut / refinish). |

Nice, I had Jagerwerks in Battle Creek do my G19 RMR cut and it was flawless for $100 (i think it was Christmas sale)

Wager did one for me. I caught a sale, May have been black friday.
Fast turnaround. Good comms. Fit was tight, I did not have the slide refinished. Just blued the cut. |

They did mine as well. Had my slide back in my hands in 5 business days. The pocket they cut fits the RMR very tight. $135 for the cut, suppressor height sights, and tungsten cerakote.

serrations , pocket cuts all done by Wager , good outfit & good looking work. Really fast turn around times.
optic cuts are all battlewerx , on my recent Glocks. Older Glock slides were sent to jagerwerks. Always quick turnaround without refinish. |

@Blacktoothgrin
pocket , dish cut , heard different names. deep channels milled/cutout on slides. In my case I had serials removed since I got a few spare slides from black phoenix & spare glock custom oem barrels also from black phoenix without serials. I wanted the gun to look cleaner without three different serial numbers. The one that counts is on frame & 4473 / paperwork so that's the important one. |

Perfectly understandable, just didn't get the "garbage product" response from another poster. If I go with Wager I'm not sure whether I'll just have the cut area blackened or Cerakoted. It's for a house gun that will never see a holster, so carry wear is not a consideration. |
