2011 / 1911 / STI SLIDE OPTIC MILLING SERVICE
From: $119.00
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.
Lead Times:
4 Weeks or less or your next milling is FREE!
Clock starts the day we receive your slide. Clock stops the moment we contact you to let you know your slide is done and ready to ship. We will not ship your slide until we have verified from you that your shipping address is correct.
Excludes slides that require Black Nitride (we don’t do this in house)
Excludes slides that require custom new BUIS sights or optics that are on backorder (we don’t make them and can’t control lead times)
Welcome to the #boomsquad !
Shipping instructions will be provided after your purchase.
Shipping Instructions:
Safely remove the slide from your pistol. Remove all necessary internal components and iron sights if you selected to send your slide disassembled. Wrap it up, box it up and send it to us using your favorite shipping method (Fedex Ground / UPS / USPS). Please include a copy of your paid invoice or a note with your name, phone number, email address, and order number. **If you ordered the cross cut please leave the firing pin and firing pin retaining plate installed in the slide as the retaining plate will need to be milled down for the cross plate to be mounted.** We STRONGLY recommend sending your slide in a box and not an envelope. Most envelopes we receive get ripped open during transit and we have received a few empty envelopes. If you want to make sure your slide gets to us safely BOX IT UP.

The workmanship and customer service were amazing. Very happy

The service went much faster than I had anticipated, staff were thorough to ensure I had placed my order correctly before they started milling and it was shipped back promptly. The milling job itself was very clean, looked like the slide had been manufactured that way. I couldn’t be more satisfied.

I did something stupid by mangling up the rear dovetail on my RIA GI 1911 doublestack 45Acp trying to install a Shamazon red dot adaper then a EGW one too. They milled my slide for a 507K and cerakoted it. I now fell back in love with my 1911. I didnt have to sand or remove anything to put my slide together. I will be breaking in the cerakoted slide this week. Thanks C&H.

I had my Tisas 1911 direct milled for a Holosun 407K, and I can’t say enough about how well it turned out. The turnaround was quick, the shipping was well-packaged, and the finished product was top notch. I’ll be getting my Springfield Operator cut next!
