Do you guys do relief cuts or serrations to match the rear OEM serrations?

Yep, relief cuts, ball cuts, fluting or serrations. As a matter of fact, I was going to do cuts on the front, but my friend was doing a run Saturday night on the coating and I did not want to miss it..
There is always the next gun

Cool, I might have to look you up if I ever get another M&P.... Trying to trade off the G17 for a Pro Series on FGT right now. So far, no bites except dumb offers.

PS: I was going the ask wy you didn't remove the writing/logos before refinishing. But, I guess you just answered that question, LOL...

Actually, I should have shaved the sides of the slide first, but we had cut som many slides that day that the mill bit was just about done for. I decided to just cut the slide and see how it would shoot. Shot it in the black and then, you are right, i wanted to see it coated.
I might at some time shave the sides , and finish the serrations on the front and then refinish it again.
But my personal guns are always an on going project

Nice project and gun sir

Thinking hard about an M&P pro to replace my current competition gun. Is the Apex trigger system a must?

Howdy

Only if you want to win


The M&P tigger even on the gun from the Performance center (I have 2 of them) if I can they Suck!

I have done about 4 M&P's trigger system's on guns that are going to be used in competition in the past two months.

Also, after Cerkoting your slide, REMEMBER, that you have to re-zero your red to or scope.
The coating does add some hight to the slide and the mount.

The APEX trigger system I think is the best for M&P's
