What do you want milled? Rather, patterns, text?

I believe he wants the top milled to put a red dot on it

Don't have a mill but I could try to forge on it for you. ;-)

Lol it would help if I read his entire sentence.

Op just call up random small machine shops that aren't too busy hopefully. It's a simple job that can be done with just a regular milling vise and parallels. Set up shouldn't cost you much. I can always look threw my contacts...I can't remember where Bobby is located...I think in Hillsboro...I don't remember. He's a machinist and cerakoter.

Not local, but Doug at ATEI is where I plan to have mine sent. If you call you can speak directly with him. He seems very particular and who I want to mill my Glock.

The OP is not responding at least not yet I looked in the service 's for trade thread I only saw one guy that talked about milling and machine work but he's in Wanatchie WASHINGTON

Not responding because crickets were chiping at 9:56 last night and I just got out of the fart sack...in order to read all these amazing replies.

@Velzey can do it no problem.

Go too the best and get what you want the first time.

Velzey has all the equipment and the talent, but he's got some work stacked up. Try giving him a PM and see what his current turn around time is.

I already talked to Tim, but he's not back to work yet. The Deltapoint needs a radius cut on the front and I don't believe he can do that cut at his home shop.

If you don't mind crossing the bridge, @NWCustomFirearms should be able too help you out as well - Jons a great guy and does great work.

Try giving Buster Beaver a call. Good people.
They do really nice work on guns, and I'd bet have resources available (internal or external) who can make your wife happy.

Have you checked to see if they make a adapter for it I got a adapter that used the rear site slot on my glock and I would try to find someone who has a red dot on their gun so she could try it I didn't like mine that much I removed it and went back to my night sites

Yes, we bought the mount from Evolution Gun Works. I called and asked if it would fit the P229-1 Elite specifically and the guy said yes. Mounted it up and at first it seemed tight but after a few shots it loosened up even with loctite. Shimmed it with some shim material and then after thinking about that, decided screw it...not going to halfazz my wife's best gun.
