Does anywhere local do slide milling for optics?

Hafer’s an IP here. Very good work.

You might want to do some searches in the archives as a number of members have sent them out and got good service for reasonable prices. I am not taking anything away from Hafers other than they are up near Hagerstown.

No. I ended up getting a gun that already came with an optic cut.

For anyone not in a giant hurry, I've had several slides milled by these guys. I've gotten the slide back in as little as two weeks and as long as just under 30 days. They do great work and have good CS.

Try jagerwerks. Have had my Sig P365 and Sig P320 done by them. Turn around isn’t super fast but great work.

Co-sign. Jagerwerks did a great job on a P320 Full-size slide optics cut for me last year. Lead time then was 14 weeks, but it was quality work and worth the wait.

Lol! My choice for Glocks was born out of the P80s and the like, coupled with the long-standing decision to go HQL-less.

I now have an HQL and will eventually expand my handgun collection, but only modestly.

Oh man. Literally mailed a Steyr off to Patriot CNC and have a Glock going to Battlewerx shortly.

Would have been nice to use a local outfit.

Next time!

Waking this old thread.
I have a Sig P226 .22 barrel. With current fast turnaround by that fed agency, I'd love to pick up a suppressor for it. But threaded barrels in .22 from Sig were discontinued. Can you add the length necessary and thread a pistol barrel? Is it cost effective?

I presume you have a flush cut barrel? I have not heard of anyone ever adding length to a barrel, so definitely not something I would be willing to try unfortunately. Some .22 models nowadays have smaller internal threads that recess into the slide and then an adapter to sit outside of the slide, the Sig P322 for one.

That is probably the best solution and is certainly something we could do. It would be $175 for this service leaving the threads raw, $225 to coat the whole barrel afterwards
