Hey guys

Some people have been asking about this, we do offer a full line of some of the most accurate milling options for just about all slides and digital sights.

bare cut is 150, a cut and any single color cerakote is 200!

Do you supply a plate when doing a slide cut ? Any limitations on type of pistol? FNH?

No plates are needed! every slide is cut to the specific sight to ensure a flawless fit!

We will soon be offering CNC milled cover plates to cover the hole if you decide to remove the optic and run irons if that's what you mean, those are currently in production/prototype, will be available early 2018

There are lots of limitations! it all depends on what optic you’re trying to install on the specific gun! There’s just too many combinations to list. for more specific fitment please feel free to shoot us an email with your pistol and sight combo!
 
I meant cover plates for when you don't have an optical installed.

I see it. Good stuff.

For the Trijicon RMR, do you preserve the rear dove tail? Has pricing changed from a straight up RDS cut without cerakote (ie 150)? What are your turn around times?

Thanks

Depending on what pistol and RDS, Some we can some we cant. Shoot me an email with details and I'll let you know what we can work out!

Turn around right now is around 2 weeks.

Is it possible to just cerakote the part of the slide where the metal was exposed from milling? Just to seal the metal back up and protect from corrosion.

I want to get a glock 19X milled for an RMR but don't want to lose the original factory glock coating.

Even any type of coating / sealing would be fine with me since it would barely be seen underneath the RMR anyway.

It's possible not not ideal.

We would have to sand blast the surface to prep it and blasting a sharp edge without lifting the mask and hitting the factory coating isn't always as easy as it sounds! We can always re blue or black oxide the bare cut and not effect the factory finish tho. That may be a better option for you!

I have the same plan with a 19x as Kilo
Is the slide not stainless steel on the glock? If it is why would any coating be necessary under the milled surface? The RMR is wider than the top of a glock slide so i dont think you would even see any milled surface.

Red Tower, for an RMR cut on a Glock do you mill in the recoil lugs like in your picture or do you just mill the slide flat?

RMR is wider, but the seal runs over the edge, so it's not perfect and water/moisture can get in. With the sealing plate the RMR battery component is good, but it's not necessarily airtight to the slide - same issue

I'd be curious to see how the bluing turns out - I was told it doesn't work by another custom gun/ modification company
