Yes but it almost always comes out to about $200 for the cut and to have it refinished properly, and then you're locked into whatever red dot footprint you had it cut for. I figured the other $100 would be worth it for a smoother, lighter trigger and sights to co-witness.
Sorry, my gripe really wasn't aimed at the price difference for the Pro Series C.O.R.E. specifically, more just me moaning that I can't shoot pistols now without the added expense of using optics, both needing a pistol that can mount one and then having to buy the optic itself. Prices are higher and choices are slimmer. But maybe it's a good thing because otherwise I'd be collecting more handguns.
