| It was right at a week for them to add NS to my G23's slide, round trip. I just put the slide in a small flat-rate box with a USPS MO for $57 and dropped it in the mail slot. I'm thinking of sending my G17 and 19 slides off soon. |

| I sent in four stripped slides thanks to this thread. About a two week turn around - door to door. All new guts provided. Glock even included a factory pistol case. I need another one of those like a hole in the head, but it was a nice touch. Highly recommend! |

I sent in two slides for sights on 10/25/2015 a gen2 and a gen4. They charged me on 11/03/2015, I received a receipt in the mail on 11/10/2015 and the slides arrived on 11/11/2015 (after I got back from the range go figure).
Neither slide was stripped when sent but all parts were inspected and replaced. They included an itemized invoice in the box with the slides, the Gen 2 was totally rebuilt including a new RSA. The gen 4 got new extractor parts and new firing pin parts. |

I sent in two model 19 slides on Saturday.
I didn't know about stripping the slide until I read this thread. At first I wasn't going to do it then thought what the heck it's free stuff and takes only two minutes to do. The factory plastic sights are shit. The ones on my two 19s are starting to flake and chip, and one of them does nothing but sit in the safe. It was time to upgrade. I've been carrying my big-ass Beretta 92fs in the meantime. |

Do most of you use them for a carry gun, or would you prefer something with a blacked out rear and a bright front sight for your carry? The only guns I carry have Glock night sights. I like a black rear with a bright front on the range, but in real life, three dot tritium works much better for me if I don't have a light. With an X300 on the gun the night sights are not necessary at all. |
