Looks good. Have you shot it since you bought it?
I was wondering if you are sure the sights are aligned. The Sig sights are really tight. I needed to buy a sight pusher to move the sights and use an 18" wrench to move it, a hammer and brass rod did not budge the sight. Fortunately, once aligned, I know it won't move.

I asked because I may dura/cerakote also and was wondering what the coat does to the sight dovetails.
