Slide Milling Services or Optics Ready Gun?
I recently bought a Delta Point Pro to put on one of my handguns, but I'm wondering which milling shop to go with or to just buy an optics ready gun. I'm considering Suarez, ATEi, Primary Machine or possibly just buying an extra slide. Has anyone had good or bad experiences with any of these places? I also haven't decided which gun to put it on, I have a P320, M&P, and Glocks.
Choices, choices, I may just buy a Glock MOS or an M&P CORE. The gun will be used for HD and range use. Any and all suggestions would be appreciated.

Slide Milling Services or Optics Ready Gun?
I think that milling the slide is the way to go.
You'll get a "better" fit to the slide and typically a smaller height over bore if you have the slide milled out. It's also typically cheaper to have the slide milled than to buy a new gun or slide that's ready to accept optics.
If you send it off, you might as well do some additional slide modifications such as enhanced serrations. You're looking at about $3-400 for the optic cut, serrations, and refinishing.
I'm about to send my slide to L&M Precision for the above mentioned modifications. I'll report back when I get everything back but the word is that he and ATEi are the places to go.
