Local DFW slide milling?

#1

Post by JRG »

I am seriously considering getting a Gen 5 Glock 26. Glock does not provide a MOS option on the 26. Is there a local DFW outfit that mills slides that will do a great job? How about anywhere in Texas? How about anywhere in the U.S.? Any recommendations?

Maple Leaf Firearms. I've used them a couple of times for milling work.

These are the only people I would use. John has done probably about four minutes slides for me and he usually fixes his time so I can wait on the job. I was able to take a tour of his place the last time I was there and he was getting more machines in. Great guy and always does a great job.

I think I last used him back at the end of 2019 or so. Great guy! And as you stated, I was able to wait while he milled some slide serrations for me. Also a great excuse to hit up Tender's Smokehouse in Celina for some BBQ!
