OK I want to have the frontstrap checkered on my Springfield Armory 1911-A1, but it is the older blocky style (pre2002). Springfield armory offers frame recontouring to 2002 specs.
My question:
If I want the front strap to be contoured to the 2002 specs AND checkered should I pay for both or will Springfield armory recontour the frontstrap as part of the checkering? I would be sending my pistol to the SA Custom Shop and just getting the $75 machine checkering job. the front strap recontour is $65.
Also, If I want a Dawson Precision light rail to be mounted by Dawson Precision, should I also have the dust cover recontoured while my gun is at the custom shop? or do the Dawson people know that I might have a blocky-style dust cover when I specify that it is a springfield armory frame?
I was planning on having to e-mail SA Custom Shop and Dawson Precision anyway, just wanted to see if any of you guys knew from experience first.
