    I personally have no experience with them but, have read good things about a company called Green Tick Tacticle, their pricing and turn around certainly looks reasonable. I'm interested in having my Stingray milled.

    Was reading the .32 vs .38 thread and @GJM mentioned D&L sights for the j frame. I went to the website and saw he does red dot milling.

    Somehow he's figured out how to mill a slide for a full size RMR/SRO without using the Trijicon plate:

    I'm unable to tell, is this a full size RMR or the RMRcc?

    From the width, I’m pretty sure that’s a RMRcc. Stick an IRDS on that and drive on.

    I still like RMR and RMRcc…

    Found the order form, couldn't find the price list or description of footprints. Is this a call to get the price thing?
    Adding nothing to the conversation since 2015....

    I sent him an e-mail. Quoted $375/slide, but I mentioned I had 4 slides I wanted to (eventually) put dots on.

    Maybe read their Facebook reviews first.
    I sent them a slide. USPS tracking said they got it Feb 26. I finally got it back April 12. Not at all the 2-3 weeks they said. Their communication in that time was terrible; they won’t answer the phone, or return calls or emails.

    The price was good and the work seems good too, but I was starting to think I’d need to buy a new slide. I had them mill for an EPS Carry, which fits well. The cut is so tight that a Romeo X won’t fit, even though it’s supposed to be the same cut.
    My slide was cut for an LPS adjustable sight, so they had to cut deep. It’s so deep that there’s no way to make a BUIS work. I like it so far.
