I've seen a video of Vulcan Machine Werks (https://vulcanmachinewerks.com/) in Plano. I don't know anything about them, but I may send a S&W CSX to them to mill the slide for a Holosun 507K. I don't believe Ed will do a CSX.

Chas.

Thank you for all of the suggestions. Mr. Cottton I called Mr. Vandenberg this morning and I am sending my slide at the end of the week. He has adopted the slide milling where you use the Glock MOS plates on your 1911 and use the sight you want. That way you are not fixed or locked down to to just one sight. I think that is brilliant. So I am going to start out with the Holosun 507c.

I'm happy to hear that Ed is still in business! I only used his services once and that was over a decade ago. First rate!

The only problem now... I'd sworn I wasn't going to have any of my 1911s milled for an RDS, that I'd wait until I bought a new one that was already setup that way. Now I blame Carl for my serious reconsideration and the possibility of spending money with Ed Vanden Berg again...

I am so very sorry. I will now have each of my carry guns in rotation all have red dot sights.

I shoot so much better.
