Slide Machining

Slide Machining is performed by a professional gunsmith and machinist. Lead time is typically 2-4 weeks. Each slide milling job includes the disassembly, reassembly, and black Cerakote. Other Cerakote options are available. Choose from one of our designs or contact us for a custom design.

  • Slide serrations enhance the grip and handling of your firearm, making slide manipulation easier and more efficient. We offer forward slide serrations that provide additional grip towards the front of the slide, perfect for press checks or racking the slide from the front. Dotted slide serrations add a unique texture and aesthetic while maintaining functionality, giving your firearm a distinctive look and improved control.

  • Raptor cuts are aggressive slide modifications designed to reduce weight and enhance the aesthetics of your CZ pistol. These cuts improve slide manipulation by providing additional gripping surfaces while also giving your firearm a sleek, modern appearance. Our raptor cuts are precisely machined to maintain the structural integrity and performance of your CZ, offering both functional benefits and a customized look.

  • Lightening cuts for 1911s are designed to reduce the weight of the slide, improving cycling speed and reducing recoil for faster follow-up shots. For Glocks, our top window cuts not only reduce slide weight but also give your firearm a distinctive and aggressive appearance. These modifications are expertly crafted to enhance performance without compromising the strength or reliability of your firearm.

  • Glock porting involves adding precision-cut ports to the slide and barrel of your Glock, allowing gases to escape upward, reducing muzzle rise, and improving recoil management. This modification enhances shooting control and accuracy, particularly during rapid fire. Our Glock porting services are tailored to optimize performance while giving your firearm a unique and functional look.
