I am trying to decide where to send my slide for milling? What are some good options out there?
Options on where to send my slide for RMR cut?
- Thread starter Rjones9292
- Start date
Atei is where all my milled Glocks went. I'm at 3 or 4 right now. Other places can do it cheaper but not better or of the same quality and attention to detail.

The Pro Cut, or can I get the Universal Cut and be good?
I have gone pro cut.
+1 for ATEi Pro cut, my 19 is basically perfect. Though they mill the slide to fit one specific RMR, Chuck P said on one of his Q&As that he has interchanged RMRs on pro cut slides with some effort. Their melonite refinish is very high quality as well, better than factory.
If you think you might want extra serrations, bite the bullet and get them, I wish I had.

+1 for Doug at ATEi. Went pro cut on my g19 back in dec '15. The fit is very tight still requires working the RMR out of the pocket for battery changes. Having a fitted pocket to a specific RMR basically supports the body and takes the shear stress off the fasteners, so their only job is holding the MRDS to the slide. Also the fasteners are cut to a slightly finer thread pitch than whats supplied by Trij. Make sure to mark the allen key so they aren't stripped during maint, which sucks fyi LOL.
There are a few other companies that do good work according to our more experienced members, my only experience is with ATEi.

Wow.. That is some impressive machining tolerance.

Piling on...ATEi.
The pro cut on my Glock is incredibly tight. Might be able to hold zero without any screws. The slide serrations and re-finishing are also excellent.

I have to agree about the refinish. I actually think the finish work on my P320 slide was better when I got it back than it was from the factory.
I'll +1 ATEi also. Choose the pro cut for all the reasons @Slim mentioned. It took a lot of effort to get my RMR out once I removed the screws. After two battery swaps the most I've ever had to input on rezeroing is 3 clicks of elevation. Refinishing on point, serrations on point, Doug has been doing this for a long time, he's figured it out.

ATEi received my slide on November 1 and I got it back on January 9. The slide already had full side and top serrations from Atei and I had them do the pro cut and PVD FDE refinish.

I’ve had jagerwerks do several slides of mine, they do top notch work.
My buddy has a Jaeger. Seems very happy with it.
