2011 / 1911 / STI SLIDE OPTIC MILLING SERVICE
From: $129.00
All slides are evaluated when they arrive to determine that an optics cut can be safely milled into the slide. If we determine your slide cannot be upgraded, we’ll send it back to you at no charge and issue a complete refund.
Any 2011/1911/STI series 80 slide that has a safety plunger/firing pin block CANNOT be milled for any optic or adapter plate due to the cut going into the safety plunger/firing pin block cavity. The only exception is the Lionheart Regulus due to the cavity for the firing pin block not extending into the cut area.
We cannot mill any .22 caliber 1911 slides.
**The CHPWS EDC-RMSc/EDC Enclosed/RMSC Max, Holosun 407K / 507k/EPS, Shield RMSc, Sig RomeoZero/RomeoZero Elite/RomeoX Compact (Romeo Zero Pro and R cannot be direct milled) Vortex Defender-CCW (Defender-ST and XL cannot be direct milled) and Trijicon RMRcc can be direct milled to your slide without an adapter plate. All other optics must be mounted with the CHPWS cross plate.
**The Agency Optic System (AOS) cut can only be milled in slides that have no rear sight dovetail or a standard rear sight dovetail. This cut cannot be milled into slides that have a BOMAR rear sight cut or other adjustable rear sight cuts that are low at the rear of the slide and cut into the firing pin retaining plate.
**All 1911/2011 milling requires the rear dovetail to be milled away. Most CHPWS cross plates and AOS plates incorporate a built in back up iron sight.
** Most 1911/2011/STI slides are milled to the depth of the base of the rear sight dovetail or BOMAR cut for direct mill or cross plates. Slides with a shallow rear sight dovetail or no dovetail are milled to a depth of .200″ from the top of the slide if possible. This is to ensure the cut is flat and screw holes are milled properly. For slides with a deep dovetail this can mean some thinner base direct mount optics may have the bottom of the window slightly below the top of the slide and make optic integrated rear sights sit too low to be usable with stock front sights.

I sent in the slide on my SA 1911 Ronin Commander to receive the AOS optic milling and the C&H plate. I am very pleased with the results. Plate sits as low as practical on a 1911. My red dot optic is a secure fit in their plate. Milled area is clean, straight, and square. I ordered the entire slide refinished in armor black cerakote. Finish is very nice, smooth and even, like new. Slide arrived with the plate installed, screws torqued and slip-marked. You should be aware the rear sight is integral to the plate – meaning it’s milled into the plate. Very nice sight, but there’s no windage adjustment, as is the case with the Springfield AOS plate. Recommend.
