[QUOTE="mmchambers06, post: 767849, member: 4445"] Hahahah, I wholeheartedly agree. I hate those. I've had Mike do a two-tone cerakote on an old Sig. He does great work and will stand behind the finish. If you shop around online you'll find shops that will do it for a bit (read: maybe $10) cheaper. But the difference is in the prep work. Mike spends more time on it and it shows. As an example, I had an identical P6 with the slide cerakoted by an out of state shop (same color, too). They didn't remove the firing pin block or the sights. Kinda crappy if you ask me. So basically the assembled slide was blasted, sprayed, and baked. The sights were the same color as the slide. The one I took to AI was completely disassembled, properly prepped, reassembled (he even switched out the front sight post for me w/ an extra he had sitting around because it was shooting a bit low). If you want the gun to be tight and right, go with AI. Plus, he's a board sponsor. Support the guys here on the board if it's an option. [/QUOTE]
