I'm not really a fan of the two tone look of the CM9, actually it's the only thing I don't like about the gun.
I searched the forum regarding Cerakote treatments on the slide and it seems like a lot of people have done that.
My question is related to the sights on the gun. I'm assuming whoever Cerakotes the gun (I'm not going to do it myself...I want it done right!) would need to remove the front and rear sights first.
Front sight is no biggy as far as replacing, but how does it work out with the rear sight? Everything I've read here indicates that the rear sight dovetail is very tight. When the sight gets pressed back in after the Cerakote goes on will it chip the Cerakote where the sight slides in or is the Cerakote really tough enough to avoid that?
I figured if I do the Cerakote that I might as well splurge and get tritium replacement sights at the same time.
Thanks
