Curious as to what y’all have paid to have the slide on your glocks cut to accept a red dot

Been a while since I offered the service but iirc we charged $150. That's been years ago though.
In that case, I would ask the guys at Georgia firing line.
I've been tinkering with turning my Glock 23 into a USPSA gun (I haven't shot USPSA, but interested in it). But for that price I may just keep the Glock as my car gun and get something bigger to shoot matches
I agree with your thought process here. You could probably buy an MOS gun from your local dealer and rock it better than a 23.
There is no advantage to shooting .40 in USPSA Carry Optics Division (where the 23 would reside). You can fit fewer rounds in the allowed 140mm-long magazine (18-19 versus 23-24 in a 9mm). You get no credit for Major Power Factor in Carry Optics (everything is scored Minor), so you'd be taking the brunt of .40 recoil for nothing.
I'd get a 17 MOS and run with it without looking back....
