JC from United States, VA Public Profile

The striker channel is missing cuts present in factory Sig Sauer slides required for an M*Carbo striker assemble. The front chamfers are wider than a factory slide and will not accept a Radian Ramjet. These deviations from the factory cut are the main reason I returned the item.

The slide came in obviously used, seemingly more so than a factory test fire. Brass marks on the bottom of the slide wouldn't bother me if just factory tested, but the finish had begun wearing off where the locking lug engages the roof of the slide and where the slide interfaces with the frame. The slide was full of brass/metal shavings that weren't cleaned up.

More aesthetic in nature, but the product images are of a CAD render and misleading to the actual product. The black nitride was a rough matte finish, not the glossy finish shown. The topside antiglare serrations are shallow etchings, not the deeper cuts rendered in the product image.

Overall fit and finish felt on the cheaper/quicker side with minimum deburring or filleting of corners and a rougher than expected nitriding. I likely won't look to ShaloTek for parts again.
