The advantage of the pricier SD slide is, like mentioned before, the iron sights that comes with it. As far as the engraving and paint, they are all very similar at first glance, with very minor differences here and there. If one looks better than the other it's mostly from the quality of the pictures more than their actual appearance. How long the finish last is another story. One of the things to look for tho is the extrator, as some aren't all that secure (can't remember wich one people kept complaining about). Like I wrote before, I check Arnies alot and I saw some people mentioning that SD slides sometimes needed sanding while others here said the same thing about the PGC and Guarder. I'm guessing it's mostly a matter of machining or casting, tolerances are quite thight.
Btw there's no problem importing them.
