Great lookin' Commander, Butch! Looks like a winner to me.
I like the solid looking bushing. I don't think you could go wrong with the pistol's "set-up".

Plan on taking it to the range next week. I'll try a number of factory loads as well as some of my handloads.

Yep, the slide has to be dovetailed. But they are great. The pic below doesn't do them justice.
