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 pictures of each modification are an example of what only choosing that modification will look like on the slide. Modifications performed may not look exactly as depicted depending on your slide model and the combination of serrations, windows, and/or pockets you chose.
**The CHPWS EDC-RMSc/EDC Enclosed/C&H 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.

There was an error in the return shipping on my RIA Tac Ultra slide cut. C&H was on top of the issue with excellent communication and prompt resolution of the problem. The slide milling and Cerakote refinishing work was excellent and even with the shipping problem turnaround time was just a couple of weeks. I highly recommend.

I sent my duty weapon, a Springfield 4.5 inch 1911 to C&H to be direct milled for a Holosun 507k. C&H did a fantastic job and did it quickly. After reviewing the quality and accuracy of the work performed by C&H, I have no problem recommending their slide services. Their communication was also top-notch, which I appreciate greatly.

Sent in my slide and had it back way faster than expected! Looked like it was milled from the factory! Fit my RMRcc perfectly and I have an eye for interactions. Great job at a great price!

I chose the direct mount RMRcc and it fits the 1911 slide perfectly. It sits nice and low in the making it easy to find the dot. I don’t like the adapter plates because they put the optic too high. The slide was perfectly milled, ceracoated, and quickly delivered back to me. Highly recommended.

Sent in my Springfield EMP 40 for a direct cut for my RMRcc. They called when they received it, very professional and eased my mind with sending expensive optics & slide. I received notification my package was on it’s way in approx 2+ weeks, again nice knowing where my products are. I was very surprised that my RMRcc was installed and witness marks on screws, bonus! Fit and finish are great, highly recommend their service!
