Anyone recommend someone in Hawaii or out of Hawaii to send your slide to, to have them mill it for a Dot site? Looking to get my glock milled for my Trijicon RMR

Try glockstore.com in San Diego. Check out their videos on you tube. They do nice work.

I had mine done at lone wolf.

They did great work.

Bear in mind that a lot of companies recommend against milling the Glock slide because of the carbon steel.

Not true.

Lone wolf will mill your slide.

They just won't mill a carbon steel slide.

My understanding is Glock slides are carbon steel.  There are stainless steel slides available, but the OEM standard uses the more durable carbon steel.

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.
